    aquapod skimmer?

    I recently got the Oceanic nano skimmer and it's been up and running in my second chamber since Sunday. It seems ok...but then again, I do wish the company would come up with something better than that crappy fission one they recommend!!

    Cannot keep cleaner shrimps alive!!

    I'd love to know how to keep shrimp alive also! I've tried 2 times, each with great water params and acclimating for over 2-3 hours. The little guy is great for 2-4 days and then I never see him again...no body either. My tank is too small not to notice the long tenticles..sooooooo....and I...
