    cycling tank

    you could get a bunch of the cheap damsels? they survive through near anything and help the biofilter establish i think

    As usual I am confused...

    Eh, I live in florida so even when the lights off at night the tank never goes below 78...maybe get the tank set up and monitor the temps for a couple days after it stabalyzes, if it stays above 75 24hrs a day youll be safe if not a heater would be good...i only use one in the turtle tank but in...

    As usual I am confused...

    Depends on the nano...if you get a biocube or similar it comes WITH all the proper filter, lighting, and as far as heating the lights take care of that so its self sustaining mostly

    now what?

    When you have LiveRock the lights will help alot in the cycling, i believe it helps the bacteria grow quicker. I hear alot about cycling tanks but to be honest ive never cycled for more than a day, and in over 100's of fish ive owned, fresh and salt, ive only had 1 die, most i traded in when i...

    29 Biocube--A Work in Process

    i cant see amonia levels spiking from one snail, but Id reccomend 10 -20 hermit crabs and some pepperment shrip, they are good at eating anything that dies and keeping the crap cleaned up. looks good so far, the lighting in it should be more than plenty for anything you use in it. good luck

    New 2007 JBJ 28 Gallon Specs - comments?

    they are different dimensions right? id get the one suitable to your needs, like if the tank is tall and narrow would be perfect to stack high, or short and wide like the biocube is good for stacking out....if you do liverock of course, i think they are all decent tanks, i have a 24gal Odysea...

    14G Biocuber

    the noisy fan probally isnt an issue, I have a 24gallon that doesnt make the noise but my 12gallon does for a minute every time i turn the lights on, the cooling fan motors will do that I assume, i though it was a dying motor, but months later no problems

    Oceanic 29 Bio Cube fish getting in filter

    A trick I have heard of is taking the water proof silicone and putting a type of screen on the intake, if that works for your particular intake, downside is it has to be checked daily to make sure it doesnt plug up, You could always try stacking rock to try and block it from the fish, or if its...

    1 month old 28! First Pics!

    I may be wrong but those hitchhiker anemones, are from my understanding bad, but the easiest way to get rid of em is let loose a few peppermint shimp, maybe look into that Good luck, looks great too

    help choosing fish for 24g!

    Really, IMO the best thing to do is go shopping, the fish you see that you really like ask a trusted person itll do. I made the mistake of putting a yellow tang in my 24gal Odysea...traded him back in..Clowns are the best bet, I have 2 Percula and 1 pink skunk, introduced at different times and...

    not enough LR

    you can never have enough live rock IMO, i have a 24gal Oddysea cube with over 100lbs, If you get coral and more livestock id say get another 30lbs in it and stack it loosley, so you have alot of holes to put corals in and whatever you want, and so if you get livestock that like to hide youll...
