I can hear the ooohs and aaahs when someone comes to your house. The pics are spectacular!

Thanks for the comments. I have had my share of mistakes along the way (ick). I now have a qt. I learned alot from this forum and I am glad you are all here.

I started this tank in February. I can't wait until my tank grows up. I love this hobby, well until water change time.

Sorry, mine if only 5 months old but I'm hoping somebody posts some mature tanks (before and after would be nice) Then I could see what I have to look forward to.

really nice! I can't wait until mine looks that great.

Thanks, everyone. I did all the above and everything went well except my floor. The guy totally ruined my it. 2nd company said it was the worst botch job he had ever seen. Plan two, not sure. thanks for the input.

I was just informed by the floor guy that when he acid stains our floor it is going to be caustic. I am going to tape off the door from the room getting the work done(and shutting down the ac)and I was wondering if I should just completely shut down the tank and cover it. If I should, then how...

I got a new leather yesterday and was wondering if anyone knew what kind it is. The second pic is fuzzy but I am hoping someone knows what it is. It stays under the sand and has green grass-like pieces floating above the sand.(moves like a worm when I take it out of the water)

no ideas?

I don't have a pic but maybe someone knows by my description. It looks like hair algae but when I take it out it moves like a worm of some type.

this is a post from Florida Joe so I will post my experience. "What my challenge to you and other hobbyists is simply this. Document your methods of treating the ick parasite when you need to. Time line, method, dosage (if chemicals are used) stress on fish outcome accompanied by pics if...

I was using a refractometer. I didn't just use the tape, I also checked it. I kept it at .009. Anyway, do you think I would have an ammonia spike with the new (used sand) or should I wait a few more days and test the water in qt? Is this something the hippo is going to have? If so, I would...

Just wondering if I could use the qt with the sand in it for hypo. It is not live sand, I just didn't want it to go bad. I just checked the water in qt and it everything is good except for the nitrates are 5.0. I am making some water to do a water change in case I need to use this tank. I...

This is what I copied from Beth's thread on hypo... Your display will now have been fishless for at least four weeks, sufficient time to allow the parasite’s life cycle to be interrupted. ****** is an obligate parasite that requires a fish host. No fish=No host=No parasite. Ich is a fish-only...

Originally Posted by florida joe In as much as you have a 120g tank it really depends also on how much of a water change you are doing I do a 20g water change. That is a lot for me since I have a bum elbow. I think I can hold out for 24 hours.
