    protien skimmer

    Starting up is not that difficult for fish only, but fish and anemones are two totally different things. Anemones are very difficult to keep alive because they require special lighting (not too much or too little); feeding and feeding frequency; currents; care to prevent injury from powerheads...

    I'm grieving of our lost Tiger Dat

    Guess 'd better clarify. The tank has 9 Nics trying to breed. A large Leporinus, Botias, Pictus cat, Bala's, Redfin/ Thresher Pleco... It's definitely fresh water originally set up as a Central American with large driftwood and caves. A little salt can be beneficial for any fish so I put 3...

    I'm grieving of our lost Tiger Dat

    This was our second Thinbar Dat. The first was lost due to a 3 day power outage back in the early '90s. A year ago we got one (not easy or cheap in our area) and put in our 150. It's been thriving and growing in there. Then on Christmas Eve it started to go belly-up. I tested the water and as...

    Just wondering... am I overstocked?

    It's not over crowded. In fact it sounds delightful! Undercowded tanks give you room to grow some huge fish - like a three inch cory. If you're enjoying it don't change a thing. Just enjoy.

    FEEDER FISH ???

    Far as the "peditors" go it's better to quarantine the feeders than to take the risk of giving them ichthioherpes or something worse.

    FEEDER FISH ???

    Feeder fish are like the overnight burrito stand on your corner - you never know what you'll get. Anyway, Oscars need more vegies than feeder fish protein. Like you should take a salad instead of the prime rib at every meal. If given the choice would you take the rib instead? He - yes. Better...

    stupid bala sharks

    This may sound like a stupid questionbut what is the temperature in your tank? I've kept Balas for years (Uh, well, decades) because to me they're more glorious than Carp, but they are tropical, and ours are real damned calm when the temps are in the 80's. We keep ours tanks at 82 degrees and...
