Brine Shrimp FAIL. What am I doing wrong?
Streetwise replied to Sandra the fish rookie's topic in General Discussion
I have spare Fluval Nano lights. Should I use one for my hatchery? I have not tried brine shrimp in quite a while, mostly because I am not breeding, except for shrimp, and I have only so many gallons of tanks to feed. -
I may have achieved a water change-free cycle!
Streetwise replied to Blaha's topic in General Discussion
I have medium hard water in Vermont. There is lots of limestone from ancient reefs. While I have seen what scale does to water pressure tanks and dishwashers, my tanks have been very happy, and I haven’t had to worry about minerals. I want to see if I can keep other shrimp besides Neocaridina and Amano. -
What music are you listening to these days?

Can you find a piece of rotting, low-density hardwood to sink? Maybe you need massive decomposition, with excess light, and over-feeding.

I heard the plow truck out this morning, and ran out in pajamas and house slippers to brush off and drive a loop to let the driveway get cleared. I didn’t have a chance to photograph that fun.

I may have achieved a water change-free cycle!
Streetwise replied to Blaha's topic in General Discussion
I will intentionally release gasses from deep layers if I am in the mood. I don’t worry about the inhabitants when I do it. The issue that Diana Walstad mentioned with extra-deep substrate, and I have experienced, is plant roots being less happy, resulting in stalled growth. This is why I have tried to edit old tanks to get a better soil/cap balance. -
Was there a special fish you always wanted but never got?
Streetwise replied to Tanked's topic in General Discussion
I can’t seem to find smoked salmon at any aquarium retailers. -

@Nav, your first two images are Google-hosted. They may be in an album that you did not make public.

@Scott Stevenson, if your water is treated with chlorine, you can let it sit for about 24-48 hours, or you can use an air stone or sponge filter to speed up the process. You could test for chlorine to figure out the timing for your water. Chlorine has been undetectable in my water, so I just let water sit to equalize temperature now.

Welcome! I only see the third photo in the first post.

I have good luck as a customer with USPS. I had to print a banner for FedEx to find my door. I haven’t had a UPS order in a while.
