Ok so you're saying that the fish should be quaretined first, THEN dipped, and then put in the main tank?

Originally Posted by Mikeyjer I have done just the bag before, but certain fish tend to poke the bag. Especially when your treating with meds. Especially if you DON'T want the meds to mess up your tank. Then it is best to use a bowl to do the dip. :happyfish No, you misunderstand me. I...

Originally Posted by Mikeyjer All you have to do is use a bag (the bag you get fish from at the LFS), fill with fresh water, tap would be fine, but dechlorinate it. Set the bag in your tank for about 2 hours, I prefer using luke warm water instead of cold. Then take the bag out and pour the...

I'm pretty sure it can't just be water... it needs to have a similar ph and temp as your QT or main tank. And you're only supposed to leave them in there for like 3 mins... at least from what I've read... *noob* Don't take my word for it..

I don't have any filtration right now. Like I said I'm still in the research stage. I've got this 55 gallon tank that used to be a frog terrarium, but I broke it down and now it's sitting in my room empty. I can't stand having an emtpy tank... lol. Anyways, I've always really wanted a...

Awesome. I've been trying to figure out what kind of sump I want. It'll have to be a small one because of the way my stand is set up but I don't really want a wet/dry from what I can tell. Seems like they add alot of nitrates? I've got a stand that has two little cabinet doors on the sides...

Barry, Wow a price list and everything! lol... I'm a total newb, I'm still in the researching stage so I'm pouring through all of this stuff trying to figure out what it all is, let alone what I want. I appreciate the time you took for that. How come you don't need the biofilters anymore...

Hey hot, I was going to email this to you but it says you don't take emails so I'll just post it. lol Anywho, I really like your tank and was looking at your equipment, would you mind posting what all your equipment is? I noticed your tank in the before and after pics and it looks really...

My tank is a 55gallon, thanks for the replies.

I just want to know because I don't want to get something if it's not possible to move it when I know I'll be moving a year after setting it up. No replies?

I have a question about moving an established tank. I am doing research on saltwater tanks and am hoping to get one as soon as I find a new job. Here's my problem, I know that when I do get a job I'll be living in an apartment for a year or so and that it will be a temporary place to live, so...
