    Mixing bulb brands

    easier to remember if you change them all out at the same time. Incysor stated "generally" 12 months, but it's been in other cases they are out of their lifespan in an earlier time, depending on usuage. My girlfriends tank has been up since November. Probably in late August we'll change out...

    red footed conch

    silversides are like small frozen fish. You just cut them up in small pieces and throw um in (like sushi to fish ) hehe. I never had frozen brine shrimp so I dont know if they soak them in vitamin enrichments, but if not, I'd get live brine, and then add some "selcon' for them to receive the...

    Neglected nano

    very interesting storyline of this tank. Neglected you say yet still nice :P The GSP in my girlfriends tank is spreading like a virus, it spread to another rock, and also it got close enough to the back "black" wall and it's starting to spread there. I'll continue to watch it and see how far...

    red footed conch

    I'd throw in some shrimp pellets for that peppermint, or a small piece of silverside. That should keep them at bay and leave those snails alone. Normally I see crabs the ones after snails though...how weird in your case. I dont know anything about the redfooted conch, sorry about that, but it...

    More pictures of my 24gal. Nano Cube

    I'm not famliar with the camera, but maybe it has some sort of "macro" shot ability. Check in the manual, if so you'll like the results once you tinker with it for a bit. Nevertheless nice pics

    My New 24gal. Tank

    wow, looks like a rather interesting mod. Where did you get your ideas from? Or is it something you came up with? Do you tinker with this kind of thing in your profession or is it a hobby of yours? Rather curious if you could create something for a jbj nanocube 6 w/ MH. I live in an...

    Phischy's Quest: Pt IV

    Poor Phischy, temperature could have been much to do with it. Example: In Sandra's tank (nanoangel) I found that on the hotter days, when we came back from work, we'd see her temperature up, and it would cause the GSP to retract a lot, almost not come out until the temps are down...

    My New 24gal. Tank

    who did your custom lighting & hood? I'd like to hear more about that, and what you are using to keep your temperature on your tank so low. Your black Ocellaris Variant looks cool (at least that's what it looks like, not sure) Also what's the blue fish you have there?

    Intergrated Chiller Assist...

    Speaking of the ICA chiller, what's up with it? Last I knew you called me saying that great invention of Chris's flopped as it broke and you now have a square hole where that chiller was. How are the tanks heat these days? on the rise once again? You better crack the whip and see about a...

    Intergrated Chiller Assist...

    welcome to nanotank and all, but I notice you are just going off on a tangent there with your tank (you hijacked mikes' post about the chiller), perhaps it would be in your best interest to start your own thread about your tank in nano 20 and under and post more pics and tell us all about your...

    what type of worm??

    if it's an easy rock to remove, take it out and douse it in ice cold fresh water, they'll come out wiggling all out like crazy. Sometimes if you leave the LR out for a little bit in a bowl, they end up falling out. If your LR is something that' a PITA to remove, then you'd need those...

    what type of worm??

    the slithering monster predator was enourmous, :shock: it almost took my finger! Okay okay so it wasn't quite like that. :mrgreen: Basically I saw it as my girlfriend was doing a water change, it was slithering on the surface of the water. So it quite easy to scoop him up in the net. I...

    what type of worm??

    Here it is: Doesn't look like a bristleworm. It's in my girlfriends 12 gallon jbj. Funny thing, I take this thing out, I toss it in the toilet, and I begin to wonder.....what do they put in toilet water these days?? lol....I saw that worm begin to dissolve before my very eyes. It...

    shrimp type

    I know that an anemone shrimp and a sexy shrimp will not harm it. Harlequin shrimp is the only one i know that would eat it.

    Tank Progress Phase 3

    very cool, looks real sweeet. Just keep tabs on your parameters and hopefully your fish should be fine, if they croak, you'll know what killed um. I wasn't one for knowing any better when I first started, and I've lost two fish because of it. Learned my lesson though, although my original...
