    New addition to our tank and NEW PICS!!

    I have heard that before, actually it is not glued, but it is incredibly stable. I went with the rule that all rocks have to be sitting on at least 3 others. On the right side, it looks scary over theh cave BUT that piece that makes the bridge is part of a HUGE rock to the right that is sitting...

    Ammonia/nitrite Up? Trying Not To Freak...please Help

    Do I take out the cotton filter fiber and replace it with this poly filter, I am assuming this because otherwise I would decrease flow through the filter....I am on my way to petsmart, they open earlier and are cheaper on filters, I am hoping they have the poly filter then will backtrack to the...

    Ammonia/nitrite Up? Trying Not To Freak...please Help

    where do you put the poly filter? i just changed out the sponge on top in the cannister with some of that "fluff" cotton filter stuff, heard it was better, but of course, do I just take that out and that is where the poly goes?

    If you had your choice/ gramma or 6 line?

    HI! sorry it took me so long to answer! My 6 line is awesome and has never ever tried to jump from the tank.
