    Mine would be 10G if I had to choose. They're easy to dose almost everything from easy green, dechlorinator, to meds doses 10G a pump. You can do nano fish(which I love) in them and have enough plants so you get the best of both worlds in a size that is practical and easy enough to maintain for almost anyone.

    The nano air pump itself does not have a battery if you have a portable battery that has a USB slot you can use it to power a nano air pump for a day to a couple days depending on the size. Even though the nano pump does not have an internal battery it will work with portable batteries to run instead of charge. Hope this helps.

    I was able to get down 18 I don't know how someone ate 37 for the current world record that's insane. It was down to the last second on my timer when I swallowed the last bit of my 18th taco so it was close. My camera app decided to crash 3 minutes In so I edited my ring camera videos in to show the first couple I ate. This video will be featuring my husky Harley I swear she didn't help me even though she really wanted to! Good luck everyone. Taco competition video here

    This is what I imagine everytime Dean does his commercials trying to advertise co-op products in videos.

    I'm so jealous of that rack such a cool idea does anyone make those that you can buy or is it a diy projects?

    I was gonna say the heavy plant cover will help I tried this years ago before doing planted tanks so the shrimp had nowhere to hid so I'm sure that wasn't great for them. Also ask your LFS what their parameters are and see what they suggest if you have one.

    This will help

    Hopefully turning down the light will help it will probably take some patience to get rid of I've heard it's hard to get rid of. I've not had it so I can't say for sure hopefully someone that is more experienced will respond.

    My pH is around 8.0 and GH is 200-300 ppm usually I've kept both cherry shrimp and a Betta with no issues from the water. I do have to say when I tried the two together the shrimp didn't make it. Could I of had a shrimp murdering Betta and you could have success in your tank most likely I would say.

    I think a good start would be trying to identify why your getting BBA in that tank address it and start treating the tank with an algaecide like easy carbon or seachem excel. Hydrogen peroxide could also work and an algae eater could be a good idea as well. I would say hold off on the new tank if possible until you have the BBA problem gone. Good luck!

    The current record (not anyone from the NERM competition) is 37 but it be cool if one of us broke that!

    I've been in the hobby for around 6 years at this point. More recently gotten into the community planted tanks when I found aquarium co-op. I now have a 75G that currently has a ton of red wag platys in it. Then there is my 29G that has more red wag platys, dalmatian mollies, and aenues cory's. My first 10G has ember tetras, two honey gouramis, and a otocinclus. My second 10G which is my quarantine tank currently has some von rio tetras which I am absolutely in love over and two otocinclus. All the plants I currently have are as follows- a ton of water wisteria, a range of anubias, two types of java fern, vallisneria, two types of swords, Lily bulb, crypts and scarlet temple that I am completely failing at! I hope to continue the hobby and support the forum, I have gotten completely crazy about this hobby since finding all you helpful people and watching a wide range of the co-ops employees videos. I almost didn't post because I've been trying to balance the tanks and get rid of the staghorn algae but I'm getting very close! Thank you to all that read and look at my post.

    I can already hear people screaming at me at the drive through as I'm waiting for multiple taco 12 packs to be made. Maybe I should go inside for this one! I am in it to win it!
  16. DannyBWell
    If it's anything like mine you'll soon have more than you'll know what to do with. Looks good!

    Found an adapter at the hardware store that allows me to attach a garden hose to my sink for easy tank water changes.

    This is what I see looks like you'd be good with the 36 inch I'd say
  19. DannyBWell
    I believe a 40 breeder is 36 inches long someone correct me if I'm wrong so I would go with the 36-48.

    I want to badly but I work second shift and I leave 2 hours before packages usually show up at my place trying to get a friend to recieve it for me but then its difficult to explain to a non fish person what to do with the fish.
  21. DannyBWell
    I have been having issues with staghorn algae and noticed on the co-ops identification guide there's no staghorn on there. Is there a reason why? Is it too close to another type of algae to put on there?
  22. DannyBWell
    My nerites do this it's usually my cue to put in a wondershell and they are moving again by the time I get home.
  23. DannyBWell
    Oh wow I was gonna try doing that this weekend maybe I'll just try hydrogen peroxide. And yeah I've been waiting to pull the trigger on more plants I put more wisteria in both of those tanks from my 10g to try and help. And yes my otocinclus does a nice job in my 10g on the algae it's hard to find them or amano shrimp where I am and when you do they're expensive and the otocinclus are likely to have sunken bellies.
  24. DannyBWell
    I put the light timer on 8 hours and turned intensity down the 75g is already pretty low light since it just has jungle val anubias and java Fern I ordered more plants to hopefully help balance the tank

    I'm not on a well my current perimeters are pH 7.8 KH 120ppm GH 150ppm 0 nitrite 40 nitrate 0 ammonia. Tap water comes out at 8.0 pH 300-300+ GH at my kitchen sink which I use to fill these two tanks. All my other water sources in the house are on the water softener.
