Interesting. I have 2 Jager 300 watts on my 400 gallon, and they can heat it up to 88 degrees no problem. I have the sump pretty much sealed though, and it's only 62 degrees in my basement.
nice my last competed was naga last year and man your planing on competing in pan ams?!! haha i never be to one but heard that it really badass! and a lot of good bjj people there.
if you dont want to use ick tablets, simply raise the temp 2-3 degrees every day and add more salt every day, works like a charm.
Just remember, ick appears to get MUCH worse before it suddenly goes away.
OK...how do i get them 2 PB off feeders...i tryed blackworms, bloodworms, flakes, pellets, and shrimp. They would not eat anything but feeder guppies...because before i got them that what they was eatting at the LFS. They grow like 1/2in already off eatting feeders they are around 2in or a little over 2in, in about 8days after i got them from the LFS.
ok guys i got a new heater and the water temp is at 90c now and i think the ick is clearing out of one of them because i saw a lot of on them and today the bigger one lost most of the ick!! =P hope they lose it all
good to hear....do wc's every other day of 25-30% while vaccuming out the gravel really well to make sure the ich goes away. Bare bottom tanks make it easier to get rid of ich. But your on the right track w/ the new heater.
