2 items. 1 - any ID on these? (pic was taken under atinics, so that may distort them) 2 - the look more like pallys i think? If so, what would the lighting requirments be for them (didnt get any care guidelines when i picked them up) I currently have them on the top thrid of the tank...

Getting ready to do this myself soon... I got a large HOB filter, and I am going to put some ceramic rings in bags in the sump for a while until I actually need to QT, then I was going to move them over to the HOB filter. My other thought was to run the HOB on my sump or tank until i need to...

Where in South Wisconsin are you?

I am going to be setting up a 10 Gallon QT Tank. Will keep the filter media in the sump of my main setup until its ready to use. For the 10 gallon tank, i picked up a free filter... i think its the equivalant of a Emperor 400. Is this going to overkill the QT tank? It was free, so not a huge...

Since I am a renter, and really cant rewire outlets in my place... I saw that home depot sells what looks like just an adapter, 3 prong plug into the wall outlet, that has GFCI protection, and you can plug a cord into that (say a 6 plug strip) right into it. Will this work just as well...

Well, i got an amazing Ricordea from someone at a local frag swap about a month ago. Blue one. attached it to a rock and put it in the tank. Its about 1/2 of the way up from the bottom in the tank (40 breeder). It was doing fantastic. a few days ago, I noticed that it started to not open up as...

... I spend hours laying on the floor looking at my refuge! I have noticed many different types of copepods, and amphipods in there, some large, some small. The numbers tend to flux, but i havent been OCD enough(yet) to track when they are greater numbers than other times. I assume this has to...

I made a fish trap, but when i looked in the tank, he was hanging out on the other side... and i jumped in there and took the problem rock out, after that, it was easy! Hes acclimating now!

SG is good, tank is filled with algae. If anything, I slack big time on water changes. Its likely that there is nothing to worry about, but that one time in the past i actually saw someting bothersome is enough to make me paranoid. I am going to try the plastic bottle method when I get home...

:) sweet, ill give that a try tomorrow!

shook it for a while... hes not coming out. what would a fresh water dip do? think it would make him come out?

I emptied all the rock from my 8 gallon, trying to move my yellow watchman to my bigger tank. Well, the little guy is hiding in the rock itself. I would move the rock into my larger tank... but I have a concern. A while back, I had something in my little tank killing my snails, some smaller...

I could not be happier! I have watched and loved his work for a long time. From cheesy teen flicks, to action movies to the very serious. 10 things I Hate About You, A Knights Tale, Brokeback Mountain and The Dark Knight. Its an odd mix, but he pulled them off well.

very cool indeed.
