hey welcome aboard! From what I can see in the pics, your tank is going through some normal algae diatom blooms. They'll die in a month, or depending on how fast your cycle in particular goes for you. Get a test kit at your LFS and test the water parameters. You need to get a good...

really nice! my gobies like to peek their heads out of the rocks in my 6 gallon. I got to catch a few shots of that, it always looks so cool. :)

not sure, babycakes, but I do know if you are in the contest, we should all be worried. You have some great pics.

small price to pay, as pods can be easily replaced. I'd say go for it. Rid those FW.

I think Djconn has been asleep the last few days..... jus' kidding. I know it takes time to crop the pics and get them up and going, and with the busy work week, it's hard to get to it. In the future I suggest the moderators help with the responsibilty of posting up the post with the pics...

better to lose pods than to house a tank full of flatworms.....yuck!

evolution :) You've come a long way. Next thing I know you'll be like those guys that makes his own custom house with his custom tank built into his living room, lol.

good things happen to good people. You are a super guy, and extremely helpful and caring. I know all of these drawbacks will end and things will get better for you and your wife. So during these tough times now, I can only wish you the best and hope the "bad" passes quickly and puts you back...

that's what I'm talking about. I'm anxious to see the entries :)

with 20 fish in a tank, and you have the bioload under control, is there still a problem of stress of the fish? Where they are literally bumping themselves as they get bigger? Just a question to throw out to you and incysor.

couldn't have said it better. Thanks for the assist there EDGRAY :lol:

my cleaner crew? They consists of scarlets, mini-blues legs, Nassarius Snails, Margarita snails, and cerith snails. They all a team and work hard on keeping things in check in my 6er :) ps your pump should be more than enough, should be quite a flow you'll be getting in there :P

Your ceramic rings and bio balls is probably the cause of your high nitrates as it'll be the one area where all the nitrate gets trapped. Also, you haven't mentioned what you have in your tank. If you have a lot of fish, that's another cause. The other thing that got me is that you said...

the tribute show on Monday Night Raw tonight was awesome. I recorded on my DVR and also recorded it on my pc using my pc tuner card. Another tribute will go on to Eddie this Friday on Smackdown on UPN 13 @ 8pm PST.

Well with no live corals in there, amount of lighting really doesn't matter, you can have whatever. If you put LR in there, it's fine without the LS, if you just want little "critters" as you say. You'll need some kind of PCs of some sort at least so that they LR doesn't bleach white. I see...

no relation, but we can say we consider him a brother :) He's entertained us for years! Such a loss to see him go. I have been watching all his highlights on wwe.com. Those are all cool, I remember all of them :)

For those who are fans of the World Wrestling Entertainment, will know how big of a loss it is to see that Eddie Guerrero passed away Sunday Morning (Nov. 13th). Cause of death is currently unknown but an autopsy will be done to find o ut. He leaves behind a wife and 3 daughters. I was a...

Most definitely. That setup works just fine. I have it run that way for both my 6 gallon and my girlfriends 12 gallon. Your main concern in all of this is going to be "heat" You have 2 powerheads, so be cautious. You may want to get them on timers so they go on and off to compensate for the...

Hey Doctor do you a license? j/k. What caused it to have bad parts in the first place??

bubbles follwed by purplish/brown ugly slime is cyanobacteria. best thing to combat is is mixing up some chemi-clean. (make sure it's well dissolved, and toss it in) should rid it. Diatoms stage in general is an "ugly" time. All you can do is keep doing water changes and watching...
