Some one liners from an obscure forum attached to an obscure website...That I hope I never read here!!!!
These are taken verbatim.
> A hood will be the next perchas, put some arfican chiclads in it and the water went cloudy
> I do change the water about every week.
> I really need to take them out of the aquarium and clean the aquarium by removing the underwater gravel filter and all the gravel. That is a lot of work
> I treat the water and usually do a complete water change each week.
> I treat the water with pH 7 chemical powder before I add it into the tank. I put new water in a 6 gal plastic water can and add the powder and shake it up. Then I can pour the new treated water into the top of the aquarium.
> My nitrate levels are very high still even after a water change. That is why I must clean the entire gravel system as the siphon can't clean under the gravel filter.
> I actually have about 18" of crappie in the 20 gallon tank.
>So the reason I change the water is that I want to see how big they can get over the next year.
>Since I can't buy a bigger aquarium I just end up chaning the water more often.
>I keep Crappie in a horse trough
> In my 38gal ... just a pump and air hose.
>I don't have the overhead light on very much or very often, so the plants don't seem to last long
> I built the wife an outdoor waterfall/pond that she has filled with too many Koi
> Ive been breeding cichlids for long enough that they bore me now
> I want something that takes a little less work..
> Got my fish from http://www.liverocknreef.com/ (you may notice they don't even sell fish)
> I am not sure who you are referring too as you didn't link your post to any other post or address it to anyone else
> The stinking thing has so much algae in it right now that I can barely see in it. I really need an algae eater.
> The place i live in sucks b/c it is a "suspended" house meaning i am very limited on weight.
> I have a 15 gal sump with a anaerobic region for nitrate reduction.
> i have found i dont have to do anything but clean the rtank once every few months.
> i had a 10 inch crappie but it died.
> i caught him once on a crappie jig just to see if i could.
> I didn't know there was a aquarium section.
After surfing, it sure is great to come back here!
