    Decent Auto Feeder?

    Anyone use Auto feeders? I have found some pretty expensive ones online that have a lot of programmable options, but I was hoping to find someone here that could give me a review of theirs.

    Hey all. I haven't been on here in awhile, but I'm diving back in. I've been eyeballing the L-46 for a couple of years. I'd definately like to try breeding, but first I'm looking for a reliable source for purchase. Any ideas? As far as breeding; which is the real question, anyone here ever...

    Low Maint. Saltwater?

    Question: Can I have a low maint. (relatively speaking of course) saltwater aquarium? And can it be 125gal? It's been a long time since I was last on here. Been busy. But recently my brother and I bought a house together, and I finally have room for a 125 gal aquarium. What I've always wanted...

    Power Filter Suggestions

    So I'm going to a power filter. Possibly replacing the tank. But that's another post. Anyways, I would like to hear from you guys; which one have you been the happiest with, and which one seems to be the quietest. I know that will probably be two different filters for some of you, but tell me...

    Worms . . . Help

    Hey Guys. I have worms. Again. I came across these last time in the first incarnation of my 55 gallon. Since my tank was broken down for two months during my move, I figured I wouldn't have to deal with them again. Guess I was wrong. Here's a picture of them on my mega-flow box. What do I need...

    Building an Odd Shaped Tank

    I'm toying with an idea for my sump. I want to build TWO tanks with these dimensions: Height: 17'' Width: 11'' Length: 14'' I used http://www.garf.org/tank/BuildTank.asp to calculate the materials. My first question is where would I find the top and bottom frames for this?

    Mal-Nourished

    Well, some of you know I have a new mated pair of Electric Blues in my tank. What I noticed when I introduced them, though, was that the female was pretty mal-nourished. Her fins also showed some wear & tear in them. Here's my theory: the couple was being kept in a twenty gallon tank; a little...

    High light . . . no CO2

    So here's the deal: I'm thinking about building the DIY CO2 kit. I have been running 130watts over my planted 55 gallon for two weeks now. What will I start to see if I don't add the CO2 injection soon?

    Help! Worms!

    While I was searching for fry in my sump I also found worms. Most looked dead, but a few were actually moving around! Now I just introduced Blood worms and Mosquito Larva to my fish's diet today. I know that stuff is supposed to be dead and frozen, but can it re-animate? I know, very sci-fi...

    Found Something ALIVE In My Sump!

    So I just happened to looking to my sump with a flashlight (checking for some Danios http://www.aquariumadvice.com/viewtopic.php?t=61881&highlight= ) and I found the smallest little creature I have probably ever seen (aside from single cell). It's too small to photograph but it's a small fish...

    Fasting?

    I don't have the book infront of me to quote, but when I first got into the hobby I read that you should "fast" your fish one day a week to clean out their digestive track. So my girlfriend and I have done this now since the beginning. The fish are all fine, but I wonder if anyone else really...

    Kamikazi Danios

    So a couple of my Danios have decided that it is fun to slip into the overflow box, everyday or so, and take a ride down the drain pipe so that I have to catch them and place them back into the tank again. I'm sure they are getting a big kick out of it. :roll: Any suggestions?

    Casualty

    Okay, so I had the first Casualty in my tank. I was noticing today that the pump wasn't running very well. So I unplugged it to change the sponge. Plugged it back in and out pops half of a Zebra Danio. No idea yet how he even got in there with a sponge in the way. Still sad though. Zebra...

    How often do YOU feed?

    So how often does everyone feed their fish? I am debating on cutting back to only once a day with my fish and just doing one large feeding. What do you guys think?
