water

I love water exchange days. There is something...I dunno- visceral about doing something that you know is beneficial for your animals. It's not only a "feel good thing", it helps foster a sense of connection between man and nature. Or at the very least, it makes your tanks sparkle! I...

I do daily WC on my aquarium and the most time consuming part is siphoning the water out using 25 feet Python solely based on difference in height. I wanted to know if I can just put the regular submerged pump on the outlet of the siphon ( which is not submerged in water) and power pump it...

Hi, I'm wondering what people are doing for water for their Tangs. I've been mixing it in 5 gallon buckets with Arlington tap, plus 1tsp baking soda, 1tsp instant ocean salt and 1Tbsp Epsom salt. I just have pool filter sand for my substrate, but also have a bag of crushed coral in my HOB...

So as some of you may know by now I breed dwarf cichlids and Apistogramma are my primary focus. While I provide them with soft acidic water I'm curious if anyone knows of a chart or some source that gives exact water specifications for each species?

Today I reached a personal goal. My Nkambae have spawned. It the last 2 weeks I have had Opthalmotilapia Nasuta, WC tropheus Muzi blue rainbows, Nigripinnis, Nkambae all spawn. I think they are putting something in the water.

Hi All, I've been working on some re-potting and dividing of my pond plants and have some extras to offer for sale. I've done a lot of research on specific types that stay smaller and are well suited to growing in tubs etc. These are all pretty different than what you might find locally. If...

Recently I learned a hard lesson that I am passing on here in hope that ours will learn from my mistake. I used Ultimate (Liquid) until they came out with New Pond. New Pond is a powder version of Ultimate that is stronger, allowing me to use less. All of the sudden around December Ultimate...

Hi everyone, So as I'm sure many of you do, I am running a dehumidifier in my room almost 24/7. I was wondering if you would consider the water safe to use? Thanks for the help, Lucas

I have a large pair of Deep Water Hap african cichlids available for sale. Male is about 6", female is probably 5". Female has held before, but no recent spawning, I think she needs a break from the constant attention and could use some female friends. Pair is currently in a 40 breeder...

Tried to get the rusties' battles too, but they were camera shy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1QzK2vGJuo

Don't you just love water changes? Seems like I'm one of those weirdos who does. I am not even sure what the specific reason is...but I like doing them. It's like a "feel-good, tank bonding" ritual thingy for me, I suppose. I dunno. A habit. Not everyone shares my geeky enthusiasm about 'em...

Looking for a used python for a friend of mine. Prefer a 50 footer. Thanks in advance

I just bought a whole house water filter system from "Rain Soft"being installed tomorrow. It has a carbon filter and a conditioner . Is there any problem with using this water in my fishroom? There is also a RO unit being installed but that's at the kitchen sink only.

Took advantage of the snow day. I called my buddy who has a snow blower and booked his appointment for Sunday when the snow stops. Because I don't have to worry about shoveling snow I was able to get some water changes done. I was able to do a 80% on my 120, a 75% WC on 5 of my 40Bs, and a 80%...

Need nice, soft water for your fish? I am currently a little overrun with it. Please come collect as much as you want from my driveway. May need some heating.

I've been testing my tanks' water parameters once/week. The levels for ALL of my tanks are as follows: Nitrite - 0 Ammonia - 2.0-8.0 Nitrate - 15-120 Every tank is either adequately stocked or under-stocked. Tanks are being fed twice every day, small amounts the fish eat in less than 15-30...
