Put this together after I tore down my 40 planted. Some driftwood, leaf litter, and floating plants goes a long way. http://youtu.be/BsxbqQXBNBc

Decided to build my cheap and simple reactor for my turtle tank. My nitrates shoot up in that tank and I can't do WC's as often as I'd like so I sought out a buffer. Just made this with why I already had and some elbows and o-rings. Tomorrow it will be operational and ill give updates on how...

So I'm usually wary about letting my WC hose hanging over the aquarium and walking away for a sec fearing it will come flying out and soak my floor (although I have walked away from a WC and flooded my entire basement... IDIOT) SOOOOO I picked up an extra barbell weight I had lying around and...

Rescaped my Chi for my bettas. Got rid of the center piece and replaced the substrate with sand. I attached some extra anubias I had to my Malaysian driftwood and laid two almond leaves underneath. I like it but will prob add some black to the background not sure I like the see through look...

I want to replace the hoses with black vinyl hose from HD but not sure the size I need anyone know off hand? I'm at work I don't have time to look it up lol thanks

While getting my plans finalized for my 210 turtle aquarium, I have abandoned my sunfish idea because I cannot acquire them at a decent size in which they could fend off my slider. I have decided to go with the big SA aggressive route. I know many have kept them successfully with turtles and was...

I've had this setup in my mothers classroom for a couple weeks now. It's a South American Biotope with fake plants, being that I don't have the time to tend to the plants. I initially had some candy cane tetras but a Ich outbreak took them and attempted to take my rams which I so far have...

In the future I will be setting up a 210 that is drilled with two overflows but with a turtle Ive decided its not the best route and after just recently flooding my basement due to my own stupidity the last thing I want is for something to go wrong with the sump. So, has anyone plumbed an...

Just recently purchased some pieces from ebay seller Decoymaker01. Some of it is a little pricey but well worth it. They are very knotty and holey making nice caves and crevices. Highly recommend you check her stuff out. I will be purchasing some of her larger pieces for my 210 eventually

Got this LED set from Costco where I work and thought hey this would be cool to experiment with. What do you guys think? This is my sunset ill change to blue later for moonlight

Well I finally got a hold of a great sized tank for my RES. The tank I found comes with two overflow towers and it's all drilled and ready to go. I initially didn't plan on having a sump but I can't ignore the fact that the hard part is already done for me. Anyway ill post pictures as soon as I...

Selling my 135 I got last fall. I'm about to acquire a 210 so I want to sell this to pay for that one. I have it up on craigslist for $175 but ill sell for $135 to you guys. It's the TANK ONLY, no stand, no filter, no heater, etc. I'm located on Long Island, local pick up only. Thanks

I've been pretty into getting in good shape and ive only recently gotten regimented about it. I've done p90x and it's gotten me some great physical gains. But I'm looking for size and my aspiration for a sick shoulder sleeve tattoo is part of my motivation lol. Plus, it helps to walk on the...

That's a beautiful cacatuoides I love the blue he has

Just snagged one from this guy on craigslist he has another if anyone in the area needs one this is a fantastic deal! Message me for the guys number local deal only no shipping.

So I added peat to an Ac30 filled to the brim. How long until it no longer softens the water?

Anyone have good experience with their planted tank setups? Looking to convert from my CF setup and I know LEDS are getting popular. Just not sure if they are making a dent in the planted world.

So I just posted a link yesterday on a DIY nitrate reactor. I just stumbled on this pretty neat setup. This guy has plants rooted in his HOB's to eat excess nitrates. Check it out http://www.aquariacentral.com/forums/showthread.php?235152-New-DIY-Nitrate-filter-started-om-my-210-tank

I keep seeing threads about high nitrates and I know how much of a chore WC's can be. Just because you have high nitrates doesn't mean you should have to commit your every free minute to a partial water change. Don't get me wrong, WC's are essential to getting rid of other harmful wastes that we...

Since I have a turtle tank I was wondering if this could be possible? I was thinking of adding a slit in the PVC wide enough to cause an interruption in siphon, but still allow for most of the flow to come from the original opening at the bottom of the pipe. The idea is that when the water level...

I have been wanting to build a sump for my 135 turtle/sunfish tank but didnt know how and there are not many "how to's" on the web just finished projects. i found this the other day and thought it was a great idea and very useful. let me know what you guys think. My idea to hide it is to hollow...

The debating is over, I'm building a 55 gallon sump for my 135 slider/sunfish tank. Problem is, I do not know how to even start. I've been reading about the size piping and GPH rating for both input and output and I'm getting confused to say the least. My tank is not drilled and I want to know...

I have a 135 I got for $60 (Not bad!) last year and I've been patiently waiting to set it up. BUT, I think I want something bigger lol. There's a guy by me trying to sell his 180 for 400 OBO. He recently downgraded to a 125 so I'm wondering if he might take a trade!? Worth a try right, if he...

Please if anyone owns a PAR meter would you be willing to help a fellow planted tank member? I need to figure out how much light I'm getting and no one around me has one that I know of. I can pay shipping there and back if anyone can help. Don't have the money to buy one
