    Airline Tubing Length

    No. It would take slightly longer to achieve the end pressure but you do not lose pressure over distance. In the case of aquarium airline tubing, time to achieve end pressure is negligible.

    My highest ever nitrate, where did it come from??

    Doesn't strike me as surprising having gone months without a water change.

    FS | 75g Setup (Tank, Stand, FX6, 48" LED, Heaters) | $1 | Central Indiana | Pickup

    Hello Josh, Where are you located? I'll start off by saying a 75 isn't large enough for your butti long term. They get huge. If you are an Indiana native, stop by The Reef Aquarium Shop sometime - they used to have a pretty large one. It would be a much better "for now" home than your...

    Sooo,what did you do today?

    This was not a conflict that I was familiar with. My curiosity prompted me to read about it, which lead me here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ongoing_armed_conflicts An interesting page if nothing else. While I certainly didn't know there were so many currently-occurring armed...

    Sooo,what did you do today?

    No spear chucking in my neck of the woods, fortunately. It was certainly a great time in my life. I have never had a fast car myself, although my first vehicle was a 1962 plymouth valiant in ~2009. It looked great, and while in its time it was a cheap and slow grocery getter, it proved to be...

    Sooo,what did you do today?

    I also enjoyed when we got to start choosing our own courses of study in high school. Oddly enough, I was focused on the humanities and had strong interests in history and law at that point in my life. I got very involved with politics (or as involved as I could be at that age) and was even...

    Some pictures from Sea Life trip today

    A small world - I was staying at the Holiday Inn directly next to the Great Lakes Mall at this time for work in Rochester Hills. I thought about going but figured it wouldn't amount to much and never made it. I wish I would've stopped in now. Thanks for sharing.

    Sooo,what did you do today?

    Exam stress is so temporary, though. Do try to enjoy this time in your life. It will get much more stressful. That is not to say that it won't get better - but there likely will not be a more care free point in your existence. I too was on my own at 18. I put myself through school, although...

    Sooo,what did you do today?

    Congratulations. I finished just over a year ago and I have not missed it, but I am very happy that I went.

    Sooo,what did you do today?

    Sounds like something a school around hear would be in the news for. When I was in high school a friend was suspended for a day for pretending to "shotgun" his canned lemonade like a beer.

    how thick does glass need to be to walk on?

    Unless the water level was literally as high as possible (tank always 100% full) you would probably be fighting condensation and reflection issues when viewing anyway.

    Probably a common fish, but exactly what are these

    My dad had one years ago that I loved, probably because it was the largest fish in the tank at over a foot. We'd had it for a long time when it developed swim bladder issues. His chosen method of euthanasia involved a meat cleaver. Being no older than 9 or 10 at the time, I was a little put off...

    Discus Craigslist Ad

    I've seen breeding setups with just the pair in smaller tanks, but it certainly does sound like the seller is misinformed. "We will include the water that is currently in the aquarium so it will not need to be cycled and the discus can be put back in the aquarium." :confused:

    Take a look at my stocking and let me know if I can add another cichlid

    Being a 4 ft tank, especially with that oscar, I wouldn't add anything else.

    100+ degree water? Gulpers in 20

    I think that after the problems with your last gulpers you need to slow down and get a tank completely established/cycled before you introduce two more. If you think there was a problem with parasites or fungus that you have yet to resolve sterilize and start over.

    rainbow wolf fish

    The commonly suggested minimum tank size for 1 ery ery around here is a 40b with dimensions of 120 x 45 cm (LxW) I think that your tank is too small.

    Thinking of Upgrading and Kinda Broke. Need Halps/Ideas.

    It looks to be almost the opposite when I peek at the site on the west coast. Larger used tanks are so much more reasonable than they are where I am located.
