  1. I believe it just circulates the water through the trays from the tank. I'm not sure if he has the tank on the auto water change system.
  2. It's a 20 long tank with a couple sponge filters in it. Here's another video @Bentley Pascoe made about it
  3. I just use water or vinegar if I have some hard water deposits. I really love using the cleaning sponges from the co-op, they work surprisingly well.
  4. @Pete I just remembered this video Dean and Jimmy made. Dean goes over his procedure including the sieves.
  5. Transporting those buckets of fish is a good excuse for a few more USB Nano Air Pumps 🤔😁
  6. @Bill Smith thats what I think too 😁 they look cool, I'll buy a few.
  7. Are you thinking about using a Pre-Filter Sponge or attaching a Sponge Filter to the filer intake tube? Either option won't damage the motor. The large pores of the sponge allow significant water flow for proper filter operation.
  8. I might have to make something like that for my tall tank now 🤔
  9. Thanks Bill, I haven't heard of these before, certainly a good endorsement.
  10. Very nice! I love using quick disconnects wherever I can, so much easier.
  11. One feeding daily, Monday-Friday in the afternoon before I get home from work.
  12. I'm looking to get an automatic feeder and curious what kind you're using? How many different ones have you tried? What worked and what didn't? I would probably put Xtreme Nano food in it.
  13. @Bentley Pascoe and @Dean’s Fishroom made this video about breeding Otos, maybe it'll have some useful info for you 👍
  14. Great tank! I've never tried that but it sounds like it would work. Those epoxy putty sticks would work too.
  15. I would just let it grow in, is there anything you aren't happy with?
  16. My Tetras go crazy for the original Sera O-nip Tabs. I haven't tried the new formula yet.
  17. @Daniel very interesting, thanks for the explanation!
  18. Lucas Bretz (LRB Aquatics) doesn't run any filters or air in his fish room. He has plants in every tank and only does water changes. Check out his YouTube channel, maybe he has a video talking about it.
  19. Can anyone confirm, looks like it to me 🤷🏼‍♂️ I've never had ramshorn snails before.
  20. I made this for siphoning out my ten gallon tanks on my fish rack. I wanted something smaller to poke around the tank and clean with. I made it with: Brass fitting: 3/4 female garden hose x 3/4 female npt adapter, with a washer, very important. White fitting: 3/4 threaded x 3/4 slip pvc fitting I used a spare undergravel filter lift tube for a siphon tube. I cut a 45° angle at the end to better siphon off the bottom. I used a little Teflon tape on the threads. I siliconed the tube into the adapter because it's not a tight fit but it's water tight. If you don't have a spare tube a 3/4 pvc pipe would work. A little silicone in the slip connection would probably make it water tight without using pvc glue.
  21. I have a few bronze Cory missing eyes. They're doing just fine, the eye sockets healed over. I suspect it was an aggressive yoyo Loach attacking them.
  22. Very interesting, surprisingly strong grip!
