    Recommend me a pump please!

    Well, I dont know? :?: The water level is just shy of the top of the left intake grate, or just at the edgle of the black cap of the tank. Should it be less? The first chamber is higher than the 2 & 3, but the 2 & 3 are level with eachother. I am thinking that the chambers should be...

    Recommend me a pump please!

    I'm getting frustrated :wlift :wlift I replaced the stock pump in my NC24 with a Maxijet1200. This is just what I had, and it did well when I had my tank set up previously, but now I feel its not enough. I also cannot for the of me get the third chamber to be a different level than the 2nd...

    NanoSkim Skimmer, worth it?

    Wondering if the Nanoskim surface skimmer work? I have a Biocube nano skimmer that I recently put in, and my tank is relatively new. I'm not getting gunk in the cup yet. I am getting quite a bit of surface skum that just sorta swirls around..... will my skimmer get this eventually, or should I...

    Back on the Forum, lost at sea for awhile!!:) Nano up again

    No bubbles in the main tank at all. The tricky part is since it is not made for a Nanocube, is getting it to fit right and all the that, and to get the bubble level right. I'm not producing any scum yet at this time. I bought a power strip/timer combo by Aqualight. Anyone use these to set...

    Back on the Forum, lost at sea for awhile!!:) Nano up again

    I bought and added a BioCube Oceanic protein skimmer today. I KNOW :neutral: .....I probably should have checked with you all to see if they're junk. I had a fission, and I promptly threw that in the trash when I had this tank set up last time. So far, it seems to be great. Although, I have...

    Back on the Forum, lost at sea for awhile!!:) Nano up again

    :lol3: It's been awhile since I was on the forum. I thought I would seek the widsom of you professionals again, since I have set my 24 gal NanoCube back up. Ive made some changes, and what to see what people think of the setup, and get advice if I should change, upgrade things. I trashed...

    blennie ID

    What if its a new supspecies?? I think you need to submit it to the experts. Perhaps it was sold as a Midas, as it resembles one, but what if its a new species. It CAN happen!!! Khara

    Zoysia or Centipede

    I love zoysia grass.....its like a soft carpet of grass, and feels soooo good on your feet! I had a aunt that had it in their yard in St. Louis. When I was a kid I used to love to roll around on it....its wonderful! I saw a yard the other day on Captiva Island that has it, which is unusual...

    Mike's new Pico....

    Mike, Do you still have the tank? Are you still willing to sell it for $20 plus shipping? I'd be interested in getting it from you, if you can share your expertise in setting it up/maintaining it? Khara :mrgreen:

    A Raven's Nanotanks

    Black Einstein Jennie, Actually, that poker chip is a magnet on the side of the refridgerator. It was from Las Vegas.....anywhere I travel I try and get a magnet, with a little charm of the place that it came from. Its the only magnet that Anakin cannot peel off the fridge. I have many...

    Happy Birthday Coralreefdiver

    THANKS for the warm birthday wishes!! Thanks all for the warm wishes. I am sorry I didn't thank you sooner, I have just been busy! Didn't really do much on my birthday, as the weather was not cooperating with me. I had wanted to head north to Venice Beach, and dive off the beach for those...

    A Raven's Nanotanks

    Top on the tank.... Well, I would say your right, however, he is very smart. He would learn to balance himself on top of a light strip I am sure, but the bad part would be, is that he POOPS whenever he feels like it. I am sure THAT would foul a tank in seconds!!

    A Raven's Nanotanks

    Just thought I would post a few pictures of Anakin, my Raven, with HIS fishtank, and him on top of MY fishtank. "Here's MY tank.....nah...this is my moms. I was just kidding. She lost the green coral in the middle just the other day though, and all HER fish HIDE when I come around"...

    Pull Flower Pot Coral out if he's bleaching/dying?

    Okay.....looks as though my Flower Pot is dying. Polyps are not extending any longer and part of it are showing the white coral skeleton on it. It does not look to be sloughing off or anything though. Should I just pull him out? Of course I knew he was doomed after I put him into my tank and...

    Mantis Shrimp, 3 gallon nano

    Molted! NOW HES BRIGHT GREEN! :) The Mantis hid out for a day, and emerged into a beautiful bright green color, almost neon like, with a little bit of blue. How cool for him to go from rusty brown to beautiful. I found he is the n. wennera variety of Mantis, and this color change is common...

    Mantis Shrimp, 3 gallon nano

    You didn't miss it I just put the photos on yesterday :) He's cool. Very funny today, he walled himself up for the night, and now has spent most of the morning trying to get out! He walled himself up to well, and is now popping the rocks to move them outta the way! Endearing in so many...

    Mantis Shrimp, 3 gallon nano

    ID, food, noise He's in the other room, so I don't hear him. He makes popping noises though when he hunts and when hes breaking chunks of rock off... I have no idea what he is, perhaps he will get brighter with a few molts. I don't know! I feed him Ghost Shrimp live, frozen Mysis shrimp...
