New to Polypterus - Substrate Advice!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
You guys ever have one of those weeks where ALL of your equipment falls apart? In the last week I've had a HOB filter's pump break off beyond repair, another HOB suddenly got so loud you can hear it in the entire house, 3 heaters failed in various ways, and just now I was cleaning the pump on a canister and lost one of the black rubber nubs that keeps the impeller in place.... Driving me NUTS
Welcome to 2017, if its not dead poly, something breaks or go missing.

Hell yeah a few months ago my 150 flooded (in the garage at the time) and lost power. Faranah endli jumped the tank, one of the cb endli died all in the same day while i was out of town. Thank gody mother in law was staying with the wife amd kids. She metted all the fish and out them in a 75 gal that i was keeping a dabola endli in who then shredded everyone. Got back home to disaster.
