    UV light question for sunsun canister

    Has anyone with a sunsun canister filter every used the UV light on it? I didn't bother when I was setting up the tank, but now that's it's cycled and running, I was thinking about turning it on. Is it something you can leave on 24/7 or something that needs to be turned off after so long...

    Changing Filters and cycle question

    I'm currently running a SunSun 303b canister filter and a HOB Penn Plax 200. The Penn Plax is on its last leg, motor sounds rough, and I have a Fluval C4 to replace it with. Since I have the canister filter, if I just put in the C4 will my cycle crash? Or do I need to try and salvage some...

    LED light question

    What would you guys consider two current sat +'s light output to be? Medium or still low? I read somewhere I should be getting around 50 par? Not quite positive that's accurate though. 36 gallon bowfront, about 18" from top of substrate to tank top, the 24-36 inch light. I got another one...

    Aquascaping and plant suggestions

    I have a 36 gallon bowfront with two nice pieces of driftwood, a java fern attached to the smaller piece and an Anubias attached to the other. I have no idea what to do with the rest of the tank. When I get fish I want some plants they will enjoy, but I'm not wanting to go nuts either. I...

    Not wanting to overstock

    I have a 36 gallon bowfront that is just about cycled. It'll be planted and would have been already if the site I bought them from had been honest on shipping times. I'm hoping by this weekend it's fish adding time! This is what I'm looking at at the moment: 6 Diamond Tetras 6 Bronze or...

    Filter question

    For a 6.6 gallon betta aquarium with one male betta, would a sponge filter be enough with weekly water changes or should I get a HOB or in water one (also with weekly water changes)? I also have two anubias congensis in there as well. Thanks for any help!

    Desktop Aquarium question

    I was given a brand new Fluval Chi 6.6 gallon aquarium that I decided would look nice at work. I figured the waterfall and the relaxing setup it provided would also help with stress LOL. I currently have it set up and the cycle started with a few live plants in some eco complete I had left. I...

    Yet Another Newbie

    So I haven't had a serious aquarium since I was a kid and well, I can't really count that one as it was taken care of mainly by my parents. Anywho, my husband and I are moving into a new house soon and I recently bought a 36 gallon bowfront aquarium and stand. I got a wild hair up my rear and...
