  1. Yeah fry would be worrisome. With the shrimp I didn't have issue with, most stay away. I had one tank a few got in but they get stuck on the top. I just remove them and off they went to do shrimpy things
  2. That's amazing actually lol. Btw I use ozmocote for root tabs. I figured it's that, or some plant leaving pods, or aliens...
  3. Just got mine! The order shipped beyond faster than it was supposed to, especially with the holiday. As commented it is 3 parts, the net with a tightening nut for the shaft, the shaft and the handle part. I could imagine if you really wanted you could get a longer shaft as mentioned, but playing around with the size, I feel its a good size for control. I should have ordered a small, I ordered Large, Medium and Nano. I figured the Medium would be a lot smaller, but it really is a small step down. I'll still enjoy the size though, I just should have ordered one of each. The Large would be great for my Oscars! The quality is pretty good, they feel just right, the net seems awesome. Will need to try them out, I have some guppies to separate this weekend, I'll try to post back my findings if I remember. My initial improvement idea would be to have something come along you can put in the hole for the handle - to loop so that I can hang them. I have a lot of command hooks I use to hang my nets from, but the type I have are pretty wide hooks, and wont fit the hole in the handle. I can easily come up with something, just would have been nice to have something with it. These are the nets sitting on 20 gallon talls. Also got my specimen container... will also be trying this out soon... Same thing, sitting on a 20g Tall.
  4. Well I made my order today for them, excited to try them out. My nets are not looking good, so time for a refresh. Also trying out the new specimen container that has been out for a bit now. Powerhead looks cool, not in need of one yet, but I definitely will have to check it out.
  5. Ya but exciting news can't wait to get my order going
  6. All I know is they look great and my nets are in bad shape. It's time for a refresh for the offish (office/fish room)
  7. May have to give this a whirl (hehe) next time. I have some of those for my Dremel
  8. This didn't scratch the glass? I would be nervous on the glass on the inside and accidently rip out the seal between the glass panes. I have a 75 to reseal and not looking forward to the time in labor.
  9. Yeah a table saw with a high tooth blade does really nice on the twin wall polycarbonate panels. I did the same type of cuts and made it easy. I used the little edging you can get around the sides and at the side with the handle. Gave it a nice look imo. Whole expensive for a sheet your spending a ton less than glass tops
  10. Yeah. I don't remember what video it was but they looked really nice
  11. Not really a tree but a giant leave plant. They are in a 75 now. This pic is so cute.
  12. So true lol. That's what I feel like watching for these lol.
  13. Do we know when these might become available? I have some supplies I want to order but have been holding off to get these. They looked so awesome.
  14. Thats what I'm thinking. Totally odd.. first I thought they were snail shells till I realized they were completely round lol.
  15. I am not sure what this is or where it came from. I don't believe its any kind of eggs of fish in it as they are huge and hard. When squeezed they pop out milky like substance. I have another post with mystery plants that were in the tank, plus I have hygrophila augustifolia and a ludwigia of some sort in the two tanks I have found these. Fish - Fresh Water Bee Gobies, ottos, pea puffers, a couple guppies and lots of red cherry shrimp. Yes my peas do great here.
  16. For test strips you can cut them in half and double the number of strips. If you need lighting go cheap I use a cheap shop light from Walmart that does 5k and was only$15. For plants go low light plants definitely. Especially if you can get some fast growing stuff that you can sell off.
  17. I can't see why not for BBS, I use my marine tank mix for my BBS hatchery - Currently using the Instant Ocean Reef mix right now, but I also have a box of this same stuff I'm going to use soon. For Fish treatment, I don't know... I guess I always used the regular aquarium salt, so now I'm curious what others say.
  18. I think your right.. I didn't know it came in that thick. I love that plant 🙂
  19. I know for sure the third is a type of crypt, just not what type. The second I kinda was thinking that along with the 5th
  20. The one that I said isn't hornwort as it has roots? About 2" or something. Maybe twice the width of hornwort from needle to needle
  21. I have some mystery plants I've been trying to ID. Can I get some plant experts to help out? Got this as a "mystery crypt" This one below is definitely not hornwort, it grows roots at the bottom.
