  1. no need to be that warm. 72-74 is plenty.
  2. im curious myself now seeing this. baby plants usually start as little brown dots, but who knows?
  3. look into earthquake straps etc that they use to secure stuff in homes in cali.
  4. nothing wrong with doing fish in. fact is, anybody could have lost those 2 fish no matter their approach to getting a tank going. sometimes fish you buy just dont make it.
  5. put the new one on, and if really worried about losing your BB, drop the old one into the bottom of the tank for a few days.
  6. i think you have multiple issues. i would start with eliminating the moonlight , and maybe reduce the regular lighting a tad, but i would also say you need to really up the water changes until you get it under control. manual removal of what you can would be my very first thing though.
  7. they are harmless, other than looking ugly. you can pick em out if they bother you enough, or leave them.
  8. does anyone shoot their eye out, or stick their tongue on a frozen flag pole?
  9. should work, though tops may be difficult.
  10. i know a few people liked them the last couple of years, so here they are again.
  11. im no engineer, but if it were me, and i wanted a stand more than a few inches wider than the tank, i would double up the front and back top 2x4's, just to be sure they didnt sag over time.
  12. ive always had pretty good luck with java ferns from those tubes.
  13. 10hrs is a good chunk of light. id probably knock an hour off both the morning, and night, and see how that goes for a while.
  14. everything, everywhere is up 30-40% in the last couple of years.
  15. a little play time for the man on drums who just passed away!
  16. mine rarely ever see over 72, and no matter how hard i try, they keep breeding.
  17. you arent wasting money, as the fertilizer in the root tab is still going into the water column. i would say dosing remains the same, as it all still goes into the water.
  18. Samurai by Saburo Sakai. autobiography of japans leading ace in WWII.
