Hmm, seems like I can't edit the old post anymore. No more pico for me, for some reason, the excitement I had over a small aquarium drained away. Maybe because water changes for a 400 gallon suck and...

All the coral are attached to rocks. I sure hope he has a copepod population. The thing is, we will never know how the fish is doing as we can't see it at all. All we see are damsels picking on the...

It's been running for 2 years. He has multiple corals and has around 350 pounds of live rock I think. The problem is, we don't think there are any copepods. I know you can't see them since they are...

He's trying to get it to eat brine shrimp, but so far we don't know if it is eating or not as we can't even find it in the 300 gallon...

My friend bought a Scooter Blenny for this aquarium and didn't know it was a dragonet (he thought it was just a normal blenny, those vegetarian ones). I looked at his tank and it was essentially...

True, I haven't really though about how to combat the evaporation, but I still have a long time to figure it out as I won't start this project until my pond is complete and stabilized. The real...

lol, yes I have a makeshift chiller for it. The temperature alters between 84 during the day and 80 at night. I read online that most small fish get too big for a 5 gallon though some species will...

I think I'll just go with live rock and a damsel or goby if my LFS has any (usually they don't). Maybe coral down the line but I doubt it.

While digging my pond I thought of getting a pico reef. I already have a 400 gallon reef aquarium and was leaning on maintaining a 5 gallon pico. I've already had the idea but was hesitant to do it...

So far so good, no algae yet :D. This small tank isn't permanent as all the plants I have in it right now will get too big for a bowl.

Ahh, I didn't know fancies had a lower tolerance of heat. I'll mix comets and common ones then, probably like no more than 5 total fish.

I know that half of the bulb isn't contributing anything other than blue color to the bowl, but since I have low light plants, the 50/50 is perfectly fine as I wouldn't want algae all over them. The...

I see, yeah I don't have that type of money to throw around. I've seen many comet/common/koi ponds but why are fancys not recommended? I can kind of see why bubble eyes won't do so good but what...

True, a dead fish is not a good fish. I don't plan to get the fish until everything is sorted out, our stores always has a good stock so its not like I'm going to miss out on them if I don't buy...

haha. Yep, this is how I calculated it. The fishbowl is like a cone with a flat end. If I assumed the bowl was a cylinder and calculated the volume based off of the diameter of the top circle then I...

I have a large porcelain fishbowl that is between 10 and 50 gallons (probably in the thirties, 10 gallons if I use bottom diameter, 50 if I use top diameter). I want to use this bowl as a goldfish...

Thank you.

I have a small 2 gallon bowl with some plants in it and the light I use is a 10W 50/50 marine florescent bulb (Originally was going to try a pico reef but it was getting too expensive and I already...
