Due to no time I have to sell my fish and supplies.I'm throwing these things on now to see what kind of interest it stirs.These are for local pick-up only in stafford connecticut,I'm sorry,I have no time to pack and ship.I have a blue hippo tang for $30,its around 3 to 4 inches long,yellow...

Pretty soon I'll be making my internal overflow.I've seen them with grooves cut on the side toward top,I've seen them teeth on top,and heard of no teeth on top.Which is the best one to do?Also I seen directions on making durso standpipes and seen them in lfs,can someone explain the mechanics of...

I found some white play sand that looks great but don't know how it would work in the new 150 aqaurium that I have even though it says not aqaurium safe,but all playsand says that,so what do you look for in the test with vineger?

Other than going out and buying the regular all glass silcone at lfs,what are safe silicones to use in aquariums that you can buy at hd or lowes?

don't buy those.There cheap.I bought 2,had to send one back,and it took many emails and calls for them to send a replacement one,and they didn't even send a similar one back to me.If I had to do it all over again,I would've never bought those.People are a pain in the butt do deal with.Thats my...

You helped me earlier and talked about motion ocean 4-way.I like it,but might have to sell my body to afford it(which I will if I have to).I know the pros of having this but what is the cons of not having one,ie just have the pump exiting to 4 outlets without no wavemaking device?

ok just so I understand everything,How big are you saying for #1 intake,1 1/2" bulkhead?and for the closesed loop intake what size bulkhead would that be for 1 1/2",2'' hole?And how far down in back of tank would the hole be?And now to irritate you more how big of a pump would I need,its going...

Well I guess I have to drill bigger holes.Any forseeable problem with drilling where previous holes are?The previous owner brought the tank to someone to drill so I imagine I shouldn't have any problems like shattering.What would be the suitable size bulkhead/pipesize for what I want to do.And...

Well after checking it thoroughly the holes are 7/8".I beleive he had it set up as a reef,but I noticed he siliconed one of his pipes(around to seal) instead of using bulkhead.He had the pipe going to wet dry.I prefer to use bulkhead but his way did work cause he had it set up for a while.

Well I finally did it.I might be in the doghouse but at least I'll have a good looking tank.I've upgraded from a 75 gallon to a 150.I've learned alot of info from this site so I figured I start asking questions.This is going to a project that takes a few months to even set up cause I want to get...

Thanks for the help.

Okay,I'll try to explain these due to the fact that I can't get a good enought pic.I have these white critters that walk along the glass,there very small but still can see them if your up against tank.Slim white body with legs,and I have these pods of white balls,somewhat like coccoons on my...

thats basically what I was looking at doing,but at what angle do you point your return,like I was thinking of coming in on back corners then facing them towards middle of front glass,just want to makesure of no dead spots.
