right now i can't really afford to change my whole hood, so i want to stick with the hood i have and see if i can find 20 watt compact flourescents. so i just upgraded my gravel to sand. and as i thought i am having an ammonia spike. ammonia is at 3.0, nitrite is at 10 ppm and nitrate is at 20...

Well, there is the powerhead (facing the long way) and the water coming from the filter also. no i have never kept an anemone before. and i have changed my mind about that, i'm gonna start off small, with mushrooms or something. i do have 2 compact flourescents that are 50/50 actinic (screw in)...

Thanks for the tip. I decided to go with ls and just did the switch today. now i just need to find 20 watt compact flourescents which i am having trouble finding, then wait for my tank to settle after that change of subtrates and i will be good to get some mushrooms. anyone know where i can find...

Sorry i forgot to mention that my tank is a ten g long. I will look into getting that product you mentioned. any suggestions on lighting? someone on another forum suggested 20 watt PC's.

Hello everyone, I have some questions about my aquarium. My first question is about LS and CC. Right now I am using regular gravel, I want to change that. But I'm not sure which is better, LS, or CC? I have had sand before, and it was a bit messy for me so I'm not sure which would be better...

No one has any suggestions for me?

I just upgraded my 5 gallon to a ten long, and was wondering what lighting i would need if i got a bubble tip anemone. I know i need to get some more live rock seeing as i only have 5 pounds right now, but thats beside the point. the ballast on my hood says max 25 watts, do i need to change my...

I don't currently have a qt tank, so i would have to set one up, but i will ask my lfs if they can qt one for me so i don't have to set up a whole new tank. although it wouldn't be that hard for me to do it, and i'm in no rush hehe. although, it might be hard to find a smaller perc seeing as...

no, i don't know why the other died, but this one has been healthy all the time i have had it. thanx, i'll be in the market for a smaller perc soon then. and will definately qt it.

hey everyone, i haven't been on in a while. i had 2 percs but one died. the one i have was slightly larger than the other, and has been by itself for about 2 months. is it too late to add another smaller perc? or should i get a different kind of fish? the one i have is about an inch long. any...

my friend just got a gbta and she said just last night it was expelling a large ammount of waste. it was brown and white/transparent slime.. yucky, but a must. she sent me a few pictures to see if it was looking okay, she knows it's too soon to say, but wanted to get a few oppinions...the first...

I want to send a picture of a GBTA and a percula to my friend so she can get her perculas to host her GBTA... any one have any pics?

So she got the temp down, but found out that this anemone is not a long tip, but a pink tip instead. she is going to be taking at back as she paid just over 50 dollars for it.

My friend who has a well establish 40 gallon aquarium just got her first anemone. well, it just so happens that her heater decided to malfunction the next day... now she has a possibly dying, but really stressed out anemone. it's really small, like maybe an inch in diameter. all her levels are...

I know this has nothing to do with lfs's, but i work at no frills... just last saturday, when i was cashing out a customer with their mastercard, it froze. i could not override it, hit enter, clear, nothing worked. i had to restart the damn thing. so i was trying to explain to the couple that it...

He ate! and then spat it out...grr...

Yea i was thinking it would be better to do it that way, so i didn't change anything today because my tank does not need to be topped off yet. i tried feeding him today, and he started to swim toward the food but didn't eat it. i guess in good time.

Okay so today he is doing better, started swimming in some other areas of the tank, even started swimming in my fake anemone i will start to bring up the salinity slowly today. he still stays at the bottom, on occasion he swims to the middle of the tank and then will go back down. i'm sure...

Ammonia: 0 Nitrite: 0 Nitrate: 0 SG: 1.020 When I did my water change i don't think i added enough salt, but the lfs where i got the perc from keeps their salinity at 1.016, so i figured if i increase my salinity too fast that wouldn't be a good thing for my percula.
