  1. I plan on using a medium one on my next build. It fits easily. I like the medium size because the bulkhead strainer fits completely within the medium size, taking advantage of the entire sponge.
  2. The second picture is some kind of Halfbeak I believe.
  3. The fry food is my #1 lazy food because I can feed it quickly with the squeeze bottle.
  4. The Jagers have like two dials, the blue one and the red one. If you have the instructions it explains how to set it.
  5. This thread has good tips and a video from Jimmy.
  6. I would try suction cups on the outside of the tank.
  7. I'd replace the kitchen faucet with one you can attach to. Lose the soap dispenser and add a spray nozzle there.
  8. At auto parts stores they sell large metal pans, to be used when changing oil so you don't make a mess. I used them when painting as to not make a mess, should work here too.
  9. At my convenience, no particular time. I don't think the fish mind either way.
  10. I've had shrimp get out of a tank with a glass lid on it. Presumably through the opening where airlines and a power cord come in. I assume they crawled up and out. My solution was to stuff some filter floss in the opening.
  11. I use these ones, they fit in easy. Takes a little bit of trial and error to dial in the correct temperature.
  12. This is what I would do in your situation, just feed lightly until it looks like everything is holding steady. I've never done a cycle with ammonia additives, not sure when that became a thing haha.
  13. I'm reminded of this great video, so cool.
  14. Dermosporidia/Dermocystidium, not really a lot of information about it or known treatments.
  15. I bought my set originally to separate eco-complete substrate from sand I had in a previous tank.
  16. A bubble on a Cardinal Tetra sounds like Dermosporidia/Dermocystidium to me. Not a lot of information out there on treatments. A picture of the fish would be helpful.
  17. When I had trouble dissolving fenbendazole in water I used a magnetic stirrer. I just let it run for a while. That worked really good, no work involved.
  18. You could use Google Sketchup. It's a free 3D design program.
  19. I would look into stainless steel mesh or screen. I've gotten mine off ebay.
  20. My first tank with an Oscar & Firemouth Cichlids as well, 2012 I think. Fake silk plants and mixed sand substrate. Oscar outgrew the tank and went back to the store. I bought this tank when my parents were out of town 😆 easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.
  21. I had something like this showing on one my mollies. I hit the tank with general cure, erythromycin, and salt. Cleared up in a few days. Been fine since.
  22. Rice fish you could view from above.
  23. I know @Dean’s Fishroom has been putting them on the bottom of his tanks. Not sure what exact tiles they are. Its in one the coop videos I'm sure.
  24. I really like the Algae Free brand, strong magnets, replaceable pads, floating scrubber, and a nice looking wood exterior magnet.
