Running an XP canister on my 75 gallon and had a leak in the filter hose which resulted in 65 gallons of water on the floor. Luckily the tank is in my unfinished basement on a concrete floor, lots of clean up work of course. I’ve utilized canisters on my larger tanks for 20 years without any...

I love the Rena Filters - easy to prime and start - mine are quiet - very easy to maintain - some models have an adjustable valve (near the spray bar) to regulate spray bar water flow - IMO very good filters......

Beautiful fish! What size tank?

I picked up some fish from Roger (Siklid) yesterday and he mentioned someone on the forum purchased a tank (he told me what size, but I can't remember) about a week ago. The deal was: tank AND fish together... In this tank was three FEMALE Protomelas insignis. His impression was that the...

PLUS..... they came from Hans, so they are probably still full of the wonderful magic that he has used to breed so many beautiful and magnificent Discus. Now that magic belongs to you Christine! Seriously though, IMO 75 gallon tanks are one of the best sizes, big enough that you have a lot of...

These have always worked well for my needs and I like that you can add the water polisher filter attachment.

Very nice fish - it's hard to beat the Male Hap/Peacock set up's, quite a lot of enjoyment for sure.....

Recently I purchased a used Api Rena Filstar XP XL. The seller threw in a bunch of media to include a PURA filtration pad which is big as a door mat. I'm not familiar with cut to fit products, but now I'm interested. Most of what I could find on this product was from Marine Hobbyist...

Who could blame ya... But he would look way better in my tank. :)

Those are really beautiful fish, I like them very much but I do not believe they are Wild F1 Cacatuoides. Wild Cacatuoides are more of a blueish color and they do not display the dramatic finnage color found in your fish. But nevertheless a gorgeous pair and you will no doubt soon see fry...

That's some great advice.... Most on your list will do fine on your water. If your desire is to breed, then you may have to soften your water for some of the species. True Viejita is extremely rare in the hobby with very few known to be kept in the aquaria. This fish is often confused with...
