    Another Hurricane?

    I did small water changes twice during our 10 day outage because I had no filtration and I was attempting to maintain a half-way decent environment for them (keep waste/ammonia levels down and keep the temp from creeping dangerously high)...I was trying to be pro-active because I sure didn't...

    Another Hurricane?

    You may want to pick one up if you can, they are pretty good to have around anyway. At the very least try to pick up a few battery powered airators (like people use in live wells) to help out with your livestock-they run on D batteries usually, so keep a lot of them on hand. We were out of...

    Anyone Have a Blowfish??

    Tetrodotoxin exists in the skin and the organs of these guys, that is why it is imperative that you remove them from your system immediately after death so that the other inhabitants do not pick on the body and become poisoned. If left in the tank, the entire system can be poisoned by the...
