    we had him in this awesome spot on top of the rocks where nothing even came close to his skin.....his hard part underneath came to a point, and we put that in a hole and it stood straight up...nothing near it. I don't think it came in any contact with rock or how it could have, I was always...

    911 Clownfish!

    First I have maxijet powerheads and love them. I turn one up to the surface for extra oxygen even though my skimmer and my outbar to my filtration are also agitating...just neurotic about making sure enough oxygen in tank....You can raise your ph by just increasing that oxygen flow. Also....I...

    This is my green brain. We have had it for about 3 weeks. Seemed fine, had it positioned up in my rock touching nothing at all so it would get better light. Seemed like it was puffing up and all and looking nice. Then today we noticed that there are 2 corners not looking so good. One almost...

    911 Clownfish!

    YES, my filtration was kinked off and I lost some surface agitation a week or more ago and just about lost my small clown fish. he is fine now because we caught it right on time. You need to have a powerhead pointed to the surface to upset the top of the water and make it ripple, brings O2...

    I just purchased similar lights from this company and what I did was take my canopy to a woodwork shop and had them cutout square openings on each side of the canopy for the fans. Loos fine....hope that helps.
