That's a nice looking hood, very good build. I like how you incorporated the venting in the access panels.

My first two hoods had problems with mold, so I used Spar Varnish (wood varnish for...

Hello and welcome,

I would agree with Sasquatch, we need more information about your tank. My guess would be that you need to aerate the tank.

Just thought I would give a quick update;

I added the airstone, put a sponge on the outlet of the HOB to reduce the current, and lowered the heat a bit.

All the platies have now perked up...

Yah, I'm hopping to get some real plants to fill in the decor. It's sparce because of two reasons;

1. It's all I had. That piece of PVC pipe on the side of the aquarium was to be burried in the...

Welcome to AC

Day 2 and 3, there still kinda relaxing. The most activity I see is when one of them swims up into the filters output stream and lets it carry them across the front of the tank.

I will get an...

Welcome to the forums, eh! What parts of Ontario are you, I"m about an hour north of the GTA

Hello,

I just recently setup a small 15G aquarium, and did a fishless cycle. The cycle ended and I added one male and one female platie (Transfered from main tank). They were swimming around...

I agree that's the best description of them.

Welcome to the forum, do you have other inhabitants in the tank?

I used a small children's medicine syringe. The type you get from Children's dimetap (sp?), it measured from 0.25 - 2.0 ml in .25mil increments.

How about "survivor"? :19:

My vote would be for casper as well.

Thanks for the article, very well written. I have been wondering about the following though:

What about "seeding" the tank with bacteria from an established tank? Is this necessary to get the...

Just to throw you a little curve ball, check out this site;

Perfect Fish for the Nano

It has a great list and who knows you might find something out of the ordinary.

Nice tanks, I have to agree with the rest, those pots are kewl.

That's sounds like a nice plan, what about trying out a biotope tank?

Congrats on the cycling. thumbs2:

Amazing, the only way I could get a second tank, was by setting up the first one in my son's room... Right on schedule, my wife tells me that I have to set one up in my daughters room so she won't...

If you can clean it, why not use the 30$ to buy a new "X" for the tank instead?

Started one and a half month ago.

I would not pay more for a fish labeled "raised in Canada", since to me it's more of a marketing gimmick than anything else.

Now if a LFS, told me they charged a bit more, for fish that meet...

Congrats on the tastee water.

Welcome to AC, hope your sort out the gender issue.

Congrats, so what's next?

That's a great deal, in my area, I've found used buy/sell to be hit and miss.

What about a small planted shrimp tank, or biotope?
