    Helpful spreadsheet...

    Hi beaver, I just checked out your excel spreadsheet. WOW! Yours is much more involved than mine, I have been keeping one for some time and have shared it with some of the folks here as well. It's really pretty basic but covers the same things, except not quite as "in depth". I like the...

    Anyone have a spreadsheet checklist?

    Hi guys, there are emails with this sent to everyone but busatana(bad link) and wattasupdoc (ryan sent it already). Enjoy! BTW, there is another thread with a fellow offering one also. Check it out. His may be better or more advanced. Mine is just a real simple chart to track most of the basic...

    If you provide your e-mail address, I can send you an excel spreadsheet I use to keep track of all my stats. I have sent it to some of the folks here on the forum and I think they were happy with it. Glad to share it. :joy: Moby

    Purple Up - all I can say is WOW!

    Be sure to monitor you calcium. It threw mine way off and messed up the ph I knew I heard that somewhere before! It was in an earlier post you made. Oh, BTW, Hi alyssia. Moby

    Purple Up - all I can say is WOW!

    Keep us posted! I have always wondered about that stuff. I generally stay away from products that make amazing claims, but someone with real experience using it would be nice to hear how it works. Moby

    Lol. Yeah I remember those days, I got a few when I was in the Navy. That was along time ago before having tatoos were anything near popular. Nice tat and tank! Moby

    Anyone still finding Southdown or OldCastle sand anywhere?

    WOW, I wonder how I missed that little nugget! I'm still amazed at how much you can learn even after 15 years! I'll keep my eyes open for some of that. Moby

    Well this should be no help! LOL! Mine is on average 3 to 4 inches depending on the guys pushing or moving it from one side to the other. It never seems to stay in one place! Moby

    Anyone still finding Southdown or OldCastle sand anywhere?

    Ha ha. Just saw your other post! :hilarious Is there a reason for this particular sand? Just curious. All I have used in the past 10 years or so is "real" live sand. Pricey, but well worth it IMO. Not a sand "snob", I just don't trust playsand. Moby

    Old Castle / Kolorscape playsand

    Not familiar with the brand, but yes. You should thoroughly wash any sand before putting it in your tank. Also be very careful some sands are high in silicates and will cause endless algea problems. Also most playsands offer no PH buffering. Moby

    blue ribbon eel will not eat???

    Unfortunately the news is not good. These fish have a horrible failure rate for survival! My suggestion is take him back to the store and exchange him, seriously. It is amazing that stores sell these guys and they really shouldn't be available to the aquarium trade. Sorry to be the bearer of...

    Questoins About Lighting???

    For FOWLR you really wouldn't need the MH. As for the actinics, if it is a 2 bulb fixture, go with one 20K and one 6500K or 10k and 6500K. Just a suggestion, really the amount of blue is then just a preference. Moby

    Will this idea work?

    Not a bad idea. I would think this would work. How about instead of buckets, maybe those mesh bags that oranges come in? Might give better flow. moby

    LR curing experiment

    Wow, that stuff is toxic! And this water is only 2 hours old!?!? I've never tested the water for anything other then ammonia. Neat to know! wrap the whole thing in saran wrap to minimize splashing, then run a spray bar to the top of the stack and let it spray for a 24-48 hours. Then you can...
