  1. Do you know of any books specifically on the aquatic nitrogen cycle? I've read on the nitrogen cycle for agricultural science but I can't really find good stuff on the aquatic nitrogen cycle.

      What probes will you be using to collect the data?

  2. question - one of my zebra danios got itself caught and scraped scales off it's back - I can see the white spot - should I quarantine her and treat with meds or salt right away? I have used stress coat once a month and am doing a water change today and don't know if I should set up a quarantine - thanks

      There are people on the forum who know much more than I do about medications.

      Ask your question on the forum and let's see what the nerms say.

      Personally, I would treat the aquarium she is in because moving her would add to the stress. Good luck and let me know it goes!

      William here is a start. I know you are looking from something more robust. Let me see what I can find.

  5. Do you have a build thread about the big living room aquarium? something that outlines all the tech and equipment and so on?

      There is a recirculating pump. It is the green pump in this picture. Once the water is in the tank is goes in a big loop and down to this pump and up the up again to complete the circle. But no airstone or anything in the aquarium. It is not totally still at all, there is a noticeable flow in the tank.

      It is a big low-tech tank in disguise 🙂

  8. It is time to thin out the angelfish in the big tank to make room for discus

      I held back a couple of angels. I now have 11 small discus in the big tank. The discus are loving it in there.

      @FinalFins I have sold them to a quality LFS called 'The Fishroom' in Raleigh NC. There are approximately 45 mature Pterophyllum leopoldi, so some will go to their retail operation and some to their wholesale side. Leopoldi are the least often encountered of the 3 Pterophyllums around here and the buyer seemed happy to acquire them.

  10. Glad to have you back! I thought we had lost you for a bit.

      I know, I posted like crazy at first and I spent more time on the forum than I did with the fish. Nowdays it is a little more balanced.
