I have one with Dwarf Sag, Crypts, Anubias, java fern, all growing like crazy with the stock light and EZ Green.

Greetings fellow Chicagoan!

Welcome Debra, great looking tanks! You've learned and accomplished a lot for only starting out 6 months ago. Can't wait to see your 60 tank fish room next year! 🙂

Welcome Rob, nice to meet you!

For when you need a LOT of baby brine shrimp? Bare bottom nano tank with easy water changes? Liquid Fert dispenser? So many options!

In the summer I can get away with no heater in the brine shrimp hatchery, with indoor temps around 72-74. In the winter I do run a heater ~78 degrees and have noticed it speeds up the hatching time considerably.

Greetings from Chicago (Far North Suburbs)! Long time Aquarium Co-op member and fan! After first getting into planted aquariums in college, I recently rejoined the hobby about 2 years ago! I currently have 3 tanks, including a community betta tank (which my daughter may believe is hers), a thriving shell dweller 29g, and I am in the progress of building a 120g high tech planted tank with sump -- photos to come I'm loosely involved in the GCCA - Greater Chicago Cichlid Association as time permits. I used to be very active in fish forums in the early-mid 2000s, and I'm very glad to see this forum bring the community back to those days! Thank you @Cory!
