Criminals will get guns no matter what the law says--- remember they are criminals. Criminals don't really care about the punsihment either because jail is a joke to them. But...if the govt. started handing out life sentences and death penalties to violent crimes commited with firearms, maybe it...

Good choice with the .270. The only issue is it isn't a good brush gun. The velocity is so high it can be thrown off by a twig. If you use a heavier bullet, you might be able to punch through if the hog is close to the brush. You might want to pick up a pump or semi-auto shotgun from walmart or...

Canisters don't cause nitrates. Not cleaning them regularly does though. They need to be cleaned out and rinsed at least once a month or so imo. I have known people that just filled them up with bio-balls or even better lr rubble so it maintains some biological filtration. It is nice though to...

1st of all, sorry to here the news. 2nd, You stated that he did this to your brother too before you. You have zero fault in this matter. As said above, there are other issues that are probably not known to you between your mom and dad. I aslo agree with the mods that this is something that is...

thanks ... I will throw the skilter on it and we will see what happens. Both filters have media in them, this one is just easier to move...

The only problem i see with that is that i have a large population of pods in the cc. And i really don't have room for a "tub" right now. Just wondering, why not move the fish into the 20 high?

I also have a cleaner shrimp, a missing cbs (only see him once in a blue moon), 2 red legged hermits, and 5 turbo snails...in case you need to know this.

I just noticed my fish have ich. It is a 55 gal with about 75 lbs of lr and cc. I have a yellow tang, false perc, bangai, flame angel, and mandarin. All the fish except the bangai have little white spots (like sugar grains) on them. The tang is theonly one that you can see spots on his body, the...

Don't use the test strips. And go ahead and buy a test kit. Even though your lfs tests your water for free, there will be a time when you need it tested and they won't be open. (like sundays or holidays)

You could do a search for SWF lr and see what you find. There have been a lot of threads on this subject in the past and i am pretty sure they had pics. From what i have seen on here (peep posting pics) their lr looks great.

The egg crate isn't from the market. It is white plastic with round holes in it. I am not sure where to get it though. If the hole is in the back, you could always just screw another small piece of wood over it. Or even an old fish net stapled tight over it.

We set up a bunch of spent shells. either shotgun or .223 or whatever. With a pistol stand arround 10-20 feet and take turns, with a rifle get back a little ways. Fun way to compete with friends. You shoot, then they shoot, whoever gets more wins. The coolest thing is every time you pull the...

That tank (the one i looked up was new) should have a 18 watt 50/50 light in it. That is 3 watts a gallon. I think it would not do well on the sand with that light. It would do better up higher if it would work at all. I am sure others that know more will weigh in.

That must be the large foxface you were talking about in another thread. Man that tank is sick. And the new rockwork looks great. By the way, is this the tank you built? Just wondering...

Water changes are a must!! And if you are trying to raise salinity, add salt water for what evaporates everyday until you are where you need to be. PS. RO/DI water is another must!

I am not sure why the ammonia spiked. I would change as much water as i could. 30 to 50% imo. Clowns swim funny sometimes. Mine swims in the corner face up at night. You definately want to turn off the lights at night. IF they were swimming fine with the light on, they should be ok. The ammonia...

Be careful with the old trying to help her through this...you could end up in the dreaded friend zone and get that old "you are too much of a friend to date" ---That's a real fine line to walk.

The bakpak is the name of a filter. It is a biological and skimmer all in one. They come in a single and double. The singles are plenty for the 40 gal tanks. By the time you figure in all the custom drilling or overflows, you can probably just put a filter on each.

You should just let it work out with her and see what happens. You never know how these things will work out. It could last a month, or it could last 10 years. It's not healthy to get all worked up about a girl that is taken. Just keep doin what you are doin and all of that other stuff will work...
