yeah, that's a problem too. i need a clamp. no kidding :P

i've been getting them for a long time now, but i cant say whether they're doing a good job or not because of various other factors such as my tanks usually being 87-90 degrees during the summer thus making the algae explode, being lax on the weekly PWCs, having shrimp eating fish/algae eating...

everytime i do a PWC with my python, i have my little sister stand at the sink and control the water flow because it's in the bathroom which is 20 feet away; i couldnt possibly run back and forth fast enough without hosing down the carpet. with all that being said, i'm looking for an...

like i said, "i would get amanos but they're illegal here" but i'm not certain. there's a ban list from our DLNR but i'm too lazy to look it up. i'll just assume they're illegal because no one sells them...

there are local shrimp which i buy but i'd like to see how they compare to amanos.

i would get amanos but they're illegal here

i dont turn my co2 off at night and everything is fine. i keep it going at about 2 bubbles/sec. i tried putting it up to 4 bubbles/sec and i get massive pearling but my fish started suffocating after the lights went out.

I posted this on AquariumPlantCentral as well but I want to see users here have to say. I bought 4 Rosy Barbs a few days ago and my clado is almost completely gone; I only see some left in the deepest patches of glosso. I upped the nitrate doseages, upped the frequency of PWCs, and spread out...

I used to run a perfecto 1x15w NO on my 10 but now I use a Coralife 1x28w CF and get better growth plus no extra algae.

Some Info on my tank Lights - total of 10hrs/day (not one straight photo period) Substrate - flourite/florabase mix Filter - filstar xp1 with tom's surface skimmer attachment UV Sterilizer - 9w Coralife turbotwist 3x Co2 - 10# tank with Milwaukee reg and ph controller on 24/7 (2 bubbles/sec)...

Thanks for the suggestions, I really really like the Alternanthera reineckii. Ludwigia Glandulosa is nice too. I'll see if I can get my hands on some and nice plants to compliment them somehow.

right behind the glosso is some blyxa japonica but it took some time for it to dieoff then make new leaves so it's still growing in. i'm only using the wisteria and water sprite as fast growers until i find nicer background plants to really give it depth. any suggestions on a thick stem plant...

I've been waiting for Aquatic-store.com to get more of their 6 way co2 manifolds (with bubble counters) for a number of months now. I've emailed them so much that they won't answer me anymore...The only other place that I know has them is Aquariumplants.com but they're charging $60 more than...

Well, I haven't posted in awhile but here's my 20l with 130w pc and pressurized co2. Don't mind the bad quality photo(tank is actually much brighter), stubborn lace java fern that wont grow on my wood, and the untrimmed wisteria. I couldn't find any other good peices of driftwood plus I was...

i am overdue for a PWC (2 weeks) so i could start with that. as for the epsom salt, i have lots my dosing regimen in general has been sloppy because i've been so busy lately so that could be contributing to my problems as well. currently, there is no co2 being injected because i set the ph...

here are the parameters for my water straight out of the tap ph = 8 kh = 4 gh = 4 i retested the kh on my tank and it didnt turn blue so i assume there is none because the plants are using it up so i'll up the doses. i'll 24hrs then test my tap water again.

yeah i kinda figured my controller might be off because i used chuck's calculator and it did say 130ppm co2 but i tested my ph with my tetra test kit and it was about 6; my driftwood is probably making the ph lower. when i tested my kh it didnt turn blue with the first drop, it just stayed...

i recently traded my 20H for a 20L which i've been wanting for quite some time. once i got the tank, i also bought a coralife 2x65w CF fixture from Hellolights.com (1 bulb 6hrs a day and both bulbs 4hrs a day) and a pressurized co2 combo from aquatic-store.com. everything is set up and ready to...

my fish love NLS and they really do look better than when they were being fed tetra flakes
