Depends on how it was wedged but I would leave that guy high n dry, it'll give in and flop into the water before it is harmed. If it can't do that then I would periodically mist it to keep it wet so it could still breathe until the tank is refilled.

"Powderized" Crushed Coral to Raise KH?
TheDukeAnumber1 replied to BisScottie Non-Ya's topic in General Discussion
I would look into aragonite, it's similar to crushed coral but sold as a sand sized substrate.- 7 replies

Upgrading tank, how long to “cycle”?
TheDukeAnumber1 replied to Ariel S's topic in General Discussion
Keep the media wet and also keep it oxygenated. If it sits too long with out oxygen transfer if could die off even when wet. Maybe run a bubbler or just don't let it sit stagnant for too long. (I don't know exactly "how long too long is" maybe a few hours, all depends on the small details) -
Depends on what you mean by efficient, are you looking for the most even heating in the tank or just the pure least amount of energy used?

I don't know but for comparison I've run those 90gram prefilled ones at about that rate maybe a little less and IIRC they lasted about a month.

Can I mix fertilizers for storage?
TheDukeAnumber1 replied to Hobbit's topic in Plants, Algae, and Fertilizers
Maybe... the general rule is not to mix macro nutrients with micro nutrients but there are some exceptions if your recipe is right. Without knowing specifics we can't tell you either way. -
Same here, on PC and android. TY! Hoping Dark Care 1.1 is coming too.

I only see Care 1.1 and ACO 1.1 as options atm using firefox.

Extend battery life on USB nano to 2-4x
TheDukeAnumber1 replied to CT_'s topic in General Discussion
I figured a cap big enough to do anything meaningful would change the form factor quite a bit. I was thinking a cap big enough to wake up the power bank and hopefully it stays on once the cap stops drawing power, or maybe it would create a situation where the bank would shutoff, the cap drains into the motor or resistor, then the bank restarts. Power supplies can be so all over the place in specs and quality, at least in my experience. Might be worth a test, I'm open to being wrong here though. -
Extend battery life on USB nano to 2-4x
TheDukeAnumber1 replied to CT_'s topic in General Discussion
I wonder if anyone has tried to replace the resistor with a big enough cap or just put a cap in series to get the best of both worlds. May test myself. -
Sunlight is just so powerful, if you aren't ready for it it can take you by surprise. My guess is the average plantless tank gets hit with some sunlight and algae explodes giving sunlight a bad rap, then that gets parroted a bit. I love natural sunlight on my tanks, plants love it, nothing else comes close, and it doesn't have to cause algae with the right tank balance.

Aquarium tweezers and a Lees specimen container are both tools I think anyone would be glad to have whichever way they decide to setup their tank. And I would include a usb nano air pump too with tubing and air stone, aeration is king.

The Co-op has a pretty nice light guide that may help. https://www.aquariumcoop.com/pages/led-aquarium-lighting And in their plants section you can sort by light requirement.

I assume there won't be live bacteria on dry wood but possibly spores or cysts, Would be hard to nail down what temp and for how long to destroy them, but steaming instead of boiling may help you keep in the tannins, better yet use a instapot or pressure cooker and don't submerge the wood. Not things I have tried just my thoughts/ideas on it. GL

I'm no pro on this topic but in my experience if paint fumes harmed fish then mine would all be dead.

Yes as long as they stay wet they can breathe.

Transferring brine shrimp to grow out
TheDukeAnumber1 replied to AudreyB's topic in General Discussion
How Cory does it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3osdgb7BGw The sieve you need is a 0.1mm mesh, but in a pinch you can use a paper towel to drain the salt water away while keeping the BBS behind.- 16 replies
