    175w MH bulbs

    Are there very many good 175w MH bulbs available? I found a guy selling 2 complete 175w pendants for $150 and would like to buy them, but not if its too hard to find bulbs. Most of what I can find online is 150 and 250. If anyone knows where I could find quality 175w bulbs please let me know.

    Diatoms

    I have a pretty severe diatom problem in my 29 gal FOWLR tank. The tank is about 9 months old and the last couple of months the diatoms have been getting worse. I was wondering what solutions anyone had. I read somewhere that old bulbs can cause diatoms to thrive, but don't see why, and don't...

    Fission Nano Skimmer

    The biocube skimmer works off of an airstone which is similar to the berlin airlift skimmer that is currently on my 29 gal. It is very difficult to keep it skimming consistently because as the airstone gets dirty, you have to very very very slowly adjust the flow from the air pump. I don't...

    Heraldi pygmy angel attacking snails

    I feed the fish twice a day. I give them spectrum marine pellets in the morning and san fransisco frozen food in the afternoon. Plus there is a decent amount of green algae on the rock and sand bed, which is my main reason for being concerned about the snails. I can't keep them alive long...

    Heraldi pygmy angel attacking snails

    There is a blue devil damsel and an ocellaris clown in the tank with him now. The damsel has been there for about 2 months and was never bothered and the clown has been in for about 2 weeks and is occasionally chased by the pygmy angel.

    Heraldi pygmy angel attacking snails

    About 6 months ago the timer on my tank lights failed and the lights stayed on 24 hours a day. It happened the week I stayed at the hospital with my wife, so I didn't realize the problem until we came home. We got home and the fish were all heavily infected with ich. I didn't have the QT...
