Irene Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Hi fellow Nerms, Each week I like to feature a forum post in the weekly Aquarium Co-Op e-newsletter that is helpful, useful, and/or interesting to the majority of our email subscribers. However, I don't comb the forums as thoroughly as many of you do, so I'm sure I'm missing a lot of great posts out there. If you have any suggestions, please send them my way by posting them on this thread so I can check them out each week. Thanks for your help!

FlyingFishKeeper Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) Hi, I've enjoyed looking through the "Fish identification thread!", personally I think it's really useful and is really good for beginners.

Hobbit Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Would it be possible to get a list of what you’ve already highlighted? At least in the last month or two 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very influential! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFins Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 The "new fish for the week of..." thread would be a good idea. This way Co-Op locals have a chance to see whats in stock. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H.K.Luterman Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 If it hasn't already been featured, I think @Daniel's thread about his historically accurate 1930's aquarium should be featured. It's so cool! 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick_G Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 And @H.K.Luterman’s journal on caring for and enjoying the antics of her Featherfin Squeaker. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbit Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 @xXInkedPhoenixX’s accidental breeding of otos is also a really fun thread! I’d also recommend @H.K.Luterman’s stupid fish tricks thread (not stupid at all IMO) and @Sapere_Ceta’s thread on building a new home for her crayfish Gandr. My favorite part is the discussion of Gandr’s behavior as he overcomes some anxieties and learns to interact with his mom. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveO Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 (edited) I do believe lots of folks will be traveling this year. Perhaps a timely topic would be "How to prepare your aquarium for vacation." Edited May 25, 2021 by DaveO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irene Aquarium Co-Op | Content Strategist This week's topic on properly cleaning the filter had a link to choosing the Best Filter... and left out one of the oldest filters, the Undergravel Filter (UGF). Almost all my tanks have some version of UGF, whether covered with gravel, lava rocks, or an ACO 9×9" sponge (kind of like a matten filter, but on the bottom) in at least a portion of the tank. I don't think I am alone, in wishing more information was available about UGF. Of course, I wish the Co-op would sell a sturdier version of the TopFin UGF that I have in several tanks. Easily customizable, it's like the Lego version of filters, but TopFin made it out of knock off plastic instead of Lego quality plastic. I bet ACO can do it better. 🙂 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
