Are you saying you have zero nitrates as well? If that is the case something is amiss in your readings.

Are you familiar with cycling?

what size tank is it?

I'm game....

I use the scruff technique. I was also showed one method when you are absolutely serious, pin the dog down and don't let it up until it submits fully (goes limp, totally relaxed, licking lips and not...

Neat design, but the furthest away from the pump will still lack in power. There is no real benefit to having a loop like that except that it stays out of the way, which is a HUGE perk if you have...

+1

Though I have never seen them use the siphon as a sensory organ before...

I am not sure what you mean by closed loop. That would imply that the water goes from the pump through the pipe then back to the pump. That would not do anything at all.

I think the tank is...

Columbian sharks are also the opposite of acceptable for a 25G aquarium. I have a 225G brackish tank and I don't think I have the room for it.

Unfortunately there are not too many small brackish...

Looking again, I get the feeling that its going to very underwhelming to you. The jets are crimped way too much, its going to just spray out in two tiny streams on each one. But if you open them...

I used 3/4" and 1/2" CPVC and it worked great. Had a 3/4" spine with 1/2" lines. I suggest making the jets if you can by heating and crimping the ends. Makes a huge difference with flow. I can tell...

Frozen works just as good IMO. Dried..probably not so much. Feed them just like you feed your fish. If anything is left, feed a little less next time. If they eat it all, try feeding a bit more. Take...

It'll be great. My archers eat 75-100 large crickets a week. The puffer usually snags a few too. I throw any extras or escapees in with the cichlids. No problems here so far.

Fresh dill weed does not come in a spice shaker-

Just pick up a veggie clip and put it in the tank. Its like a clothespin/chip clip with a suction cup on it. Trust me, they will find they will find the food.

This is a good start for the food- http://www.aquaticcommunity.com/aquariumforum/showthread.php?t=71890

The hole will heal up, their flesh will actually calcify around it and close it off, but it...

They can be aggressive, but I have them mixed with cichlids just fine. The only thing I would be concerned about would be the angelfish getting its fins nipped.

Snails are as opportunistic as fish IME. I have no doubt they would eat the eggs if they ran across them. Apple snails will eat just about anything. The larger ones can actually be very destructive,...

Brevis are also nice if you want something a little bit larger than multies or occies. Not much larger though. Almost any of them will be plenty of entertainment. Remember though, they will only...

That seems very odd. I'll be interested to see how long the AC's work. I have had a few HOB's die on me, but I have abused them pretty bad. Out of probably 30 I have only had one just go out for no...

Guess thats a no...lol


OK then. I'll see what I can find.

So, I will be moving my eel and puffer to another tank. It is just safer that way. That also means that the tank they are in will only have 3 archers in it. Full grown microleps, so they are about...

So....you don't want to use a gravel vac, you want rigid tubing for your airline tube? They sell those for under gravel filters. Little rigid parts that connect to the airstone, I've seen them from...

Great looking tank. Hope the occies get along. Every time I have tried I end up with 1. Probably has to do with my inability to sex them at the store...good luck!

Looking forward to pics of the...

I splurged and bought myself a new bottle of dasani to carry in my car. I usually just refill the old one, but after about 8 months it starts smelling funny.

Living the good life!

Funny story, just a few weeks ago was helping my mother in law look at houses around the area. This is in Boulder, CO and there is a high volume of people who are....well...hippies. So we are at this...

Any chance it is actually just a hair? I have three cats a dog and a wife. I've gotten hair in my tank more than once.
