Have you ever used methylene blue with the eggs. I find just a tiny amount goes a long way and keeps eggs from fungus. I will take a toothpick dip it in the methylene blue and the touch your egg storage. That works well for me.

Yes sir I under standard that completely but mine is not compacted at all this is pool filter sand. I seen play sand compacted like this. Thanks
-
I understand that this is pool filter sand grain size is not small at all and I have this any other tanks no issue. Wouldn't all the substrate have this problem and not the top layer wich is getting plenty of flow? Thanks
-
It's just the top layer of sand. It's not compacted at all. Have tons of oxygen also. 2 huge air stones.

Does anyone have a idea why my sand is turning black. It seem to only be where the light is directly above. This is in my 280 with 4 fulval 3.0 they run 4 hrs in the morning and 4 hrs at night. Is this some kind of algae? Any help appreciated. Thanks

From my understanding @Brian K dual stage keeps from having the end of tank dump I believe I am sure some else can chime in. @Ryan W thank you for your help I order Fzone the C02 art copy or rebrand got it yesterday seems to be made really well and price was good for me and had good reviews also has where I can run to aquarium a so that is cool.Waiting on my diffuser to come in. I 2as lucky my grandpa had 2 old ⁵lbs tanks laying around and I swapped them out yesterday only cost me 22 buck for both. So I am about $175 bucks to get up and running. I will let you know how it is. @Streetwise thank for you help also.

Maybe someday I will get a ph control not rite now. Trying to find the happy medium with money and quality for my first try at it.

Also from what I have been reading fzone is rebranded C02 art regulator made in the same place. So we shall see.

Oh no! BBA!!! Say it isn't so!
Matt Pike replied to TifNee837's topic in Plants, Algae, and Fertilizers
You can use spot treatment of excel or hydrogen peroxide with a syringe. I have done that had some success. I would like to get some panda garra or Florida flag fish and try them I hear they eat it. I am sure some on with more insight on this will help out. -
They do look like awsome products and have lifetime warranty just hard to drop $295 bucks on it. Thank you for you input. I am seriously considering them.

I was given a Milwaukee regulator with a tank. Had it about a year in the box finally ready to use it today and I see why it was given to me lol. Time for a new one. This is going on my 125 first time using co2 I have a 5lb tank. Can anyone recommend a co2 regulator that is good and wont break the bank. I was looking at these but I really dont want to spend this much. https://greenleafaquariums.com/categories/co2-equipment/gla-co2-regulators.html Thank you
