    No clean filter or water change aquarium?

    How often will you be able to get to the tank? And how do plan on feeding any inhabitants of the tank while you are away? I would be very nervous of running any tank for weeks on end with nobody ever checking on it. If one small thing goes wrong and it's left for a week or longer you could end...

    Wigglers 2: Birth of a hatchery & everything Angels

    True, ammonia has been used in refrigeration for a long time although it is mainly used in industrial situations as there are far less dangerous refrigerants for residential or even light commercial use. (the pure ammonia for refrigeration is not your everyday hardware store variety). I know...

    Wigglers 2: Birth of a hatchery & everything Angels

    Glad to hear things are going well for you Andy, and I hope the positive streak continues for you. As for tanks...:nono:I don't think there is ever "enough tanks". I am constantly coming across fish I would like to acquire, or fry, or fish in need of quarantine, or squabbling fish that need to...

    New Angels

    Wow, love the pearlscale. Definitely look the same plus the pearl. I have another pair of silver pearlscale that I wasn't sure what I was going to do with but now.....:brows:. Just need to learn these genetics and understand how they affect each other.

    Thank you. Hoping to get a pair out them. I already have one breeding pair of Koi angels, and have several more tanks waiting if needed.

    Thanks, I figured Poppa or Andy would be along soon enough and be able to identify them.

    New Angels

    Just picked these guys up today, the pics just don't do them justice. The blue on them is incredible. They were sold to me as "Cobalt blue". I realize the Angelfish Society does not recognize Cobalt Blue, and the only thing I could find was Philippine blue. Correct me if I am wrong.....is...

    Angel breeding tube?

    Omg it has been far too long since I updated this..my apologies to anyone that was following. I must admit that I had given up a little on this project as I was getting a little frustrated with losing the fry every batch. I thought I was just going to give the fish a break and let them grow...

    Marineland magniflow c360

    Actually I measured the clearance behind my tank last night and I only have 3.5" so it is going to have to be the penguin 350. I will just buy a spare impeller. It is in my living room otherwise I would have gave up five days ago and just ran sponge filters just like the rest of my tanks tanks...

    Marineland magniflow c360

    Well I unhooked the filter and took it back to the store, unfortunately they didn't mention on the phone that they don't carry the marineland canisters at that location...:banghead::banghead: They called 4 other locations all of which had no stock. I went home beyond frustrated but called a...

    Marineland magniflow c360

    Ok, so I applied vaseline to the gasket and although it is not perfect I do notice some improvement. Not sure if I should try applying more, or something different. Or pack it all up and return it (calling store later to ask about filter returns). For now, waiting to hear back from customer...

    Thanks, I will try this as it's the last thing customer service asked me to try.

    Marineland magniflow c360

    I will continue to keep trying with Customer support tomorrow, they seem to be genuine so far in their efforts to try and make things right. It really is just frustrating as I like the filter design, and the amount of media it holds, It is extremely quiet, and it was on sale for cheap $119...

    Marineland magniflow c360

    I was thinking that. Have to contact Petsmart first about return policy especially before I unhook everything.

    Marineland magniflow c360

    I did try tipping it, and gently banging it while running trying to get all air out. The bubbles come in small bursts, 5-15sec apart. Marineland customer support has been trying to help, but so far nothing they have susseted has helped. They suggested lubing the main gasket; but I have nothing...

    Marineland magniflow c360

    :banghead::banghead: Just bought a Marineland magniflow c360 canister filter and the microbubbles are driving me crazy. I have had this thing apart more in four days than I thought I would have to in a year. Bought this as an upgrade to the HOB's and regretting it already. Anyone have any tips...

    help stocking 90 gallon cichlid tank...what can i add or remove

    Everything below the yellow tail acei needs to go. They will at some point be killed by the other fish, just a matter of time. The 3 Demasoni will also be a problem, they need larger numbers to curb their aggression. With 3 you will eventually only have 1. Personally with your other stock I...

    "Bio Wheels" are they effective?

    Absolutely you can. Stuff it full of whatever you prefer, sponge, ceramic media, pot scrubbies. This extra media is also helpfull if you need to kick start a cycle on another tank. I like the bio-wheels, and haven't had any issue so far with them stopping, unless I let the water level get way...

    Angel breeding tube?

    No I haven't. Are they smaller? My BBS shrimp are thriving and I dont find it too much of a pain hatching them. The only reason I am looking at any other food source is the possibilty that my last batch of fry all perished due to starvation. Possibly because the BBS were to large for them to...

    Angel breeding tube?

    **** autocorrect strikes again:) Assuming you meant microworms? I am looking into getting a culture (joining local aquarium society next week). But I have to admit, I am a bit squeemish about the whole worm thing. I will put my heeby geebies aside if it means one more possible option to keep...
