Originally Posted by Handbanana can someone recomend one thats not ornimental but will still cllean my tank up? Snails. Lots of them. The shrimp is not cleaning your tank. It cleans parasites from fish, ie Ich. It's easier to keep a fish from getting ich, or another treatment versus relying...

I will throw out there, test your water change before putting it in the tank. I was dealing with chronic low alk and mg was acceptable. Couldn't figure it out. Tested my water change and it was 2.2 meq. I was not pleased.

Originally Posted by King_Neptune My question is would it do it in under 24 hours? Good question. I don't really know the answer. I would guess it would depend on the health of the specimen. If it was 100%, no problems, I would guess no too. But if it had any underlying health problems, ie...

I'm going to guess pistol shrimp. I have a peacock mantis. Depending on the size of "dinner", usually will depend on the number of strikes. Blue-leg hermit, one smash. Huge turbo, 8-10 smashes. A live gorilla crab (these are the best), could be any number, depends on how many times it...

Originally Posted by 9supratt4 I am not adding anything, but vodka, but I will look into the MB7. Do you have to continue with the MB7 during the entire time of dosing vodka, or just until the maintenance level is reached? It's a continuous dosage. Most people will split the dosage into...

I had a Flame Angel in a heavy SPS 120. Never touched a thing for months. Bought about $300 in acans and had to trade/sale them all. He wouldn't leave them alone. I had to build a "cage" out of egg crate until they were all gone. Now, he's gone.

Search dinoflagellate. And if it is, good luck. Their a beast.

I use this.... http://www.infinitysoft.net/default.asp ReefCon LT is the free version. It covers everything I need.

IMO, Purple Up is not an acceptable method of raising calcium levels long term. You need to look into a two-part solution of some kind. How much flow do you have? (powerheads) Your lights should be on six-eight hours max. I would probably reduce to four while your battling cyano. In a 29g, I...

A good RO/DI unit can achieve 000 TDS. (Total Dissolved Solids) 0 TDS would be the purest water you can put into your tank.

I did read everything and it still seems shady to me. Everybody else can decide for themselves.

1. Sounds like I need a bigger bucket. 2. Can you give me the link to where you got that quote from? Either here or shoot me an e-mail. Thanks, E

Thanks Hurt. Yes, I top off about 2-3 gallons a day. I got the drip rate to about one a second and I'm able to drip about 3/4 a gallon in around 12 hours. Do you think I should prepare a second bucket to drip in the morning to get somewhere around a gallon and 1/2 a day? I was going to try it...
