I'm in St. Petersburg, where they are ubiquitous. I see a few reports of their use in aquaria, but they are mostly used in vivaria, with frogs. Anyone ever try them?
AQUARIUM BEAUTIFUL WINNERS
All the aquariums entered were outstanding and gave the lobby a great atmosphere for a tropical fish convention.
And (drum roll) THE BIG FISH DEAL winner were:
NANO CLASS
There were ten entries.

Roger Applegate First place

It is time to think about what you are putting in the contests. We will have two contests.
This year all tanks entered will be eligible for both contests. One contest will be decided by Popular vote as we have done for the past two years. The other contest will be judges by aquarium...
I'm trying to find a non-intrusive (minimally visible) way to heat a 1-2 gallon aquarium to 70-75 degrees. I was thinking about using an adhesive under-tank heater like some use for reptile enclosures, such as the Zoo Med Mini heater.
Has anyone done anything like this before? Any feedback on...
Hey CCA folks, don't forget about the Aquarium Beautiful competition! We'll be setting up tanks in the hotel lobby again just like last year. There were some fantastic entries last time, so I hope you all are getting your tanks in shape and planning out what you want to bring!
If you want to...

I just got back from a nice long road trip to New Orleans a couple weeks ago. We stopped at birmingham zoo in Alabama on the way down. We walked the streets of bourbon, had our fill of beignets at cafe Du monde as well as gumbo. We checked out the insectarium and the aquarium. We went on voodoo...
Hey guys. So I'm in a bit of a dilemma here......
I have a 110 gallon tank w/fish and water already in it, sitting on top of a pre-fabbed wooden aquarium stand. I'm not worried about the stand itself, as it was engineered specifically to hold the weight of a full 110 gallon tank. But I...
Hey everyone , I saw a post on here a while back I tried to search but just gave up. It was for someone offering their skills at building stands . does anyone remember this or can reference me to the user?
I need a stand to hold a 55 gal on the bottom and a 40 long above it...
These are pics of my dirted tanks except for the 55gallon dirted tank because I need to clean it, went to pvas today and picked up some guppies, angelfish, breeding pair of apisto peba, bushy nose, java moss, and snails. Me and my buddy Eugene had a ball trying to out bid each other lol, hope...
The first thing I thought of the first time I saw this tank was planting it for some apistos. The unique footprint is what is really appealing to me, 35.4" x 8.3" x 9.4". I thought I had the perfect spot for it in my kitchen overlooking my foyer but after finally measuring the ledge, its only 6"...
