    Lighting schedule in my 5.5

    can you post a link to these noma digital timers? I need a real dependable one for my fans. Right now I have it running 24/7, but was thinking I could control that and have it on like from the lights turn on and then off a couple hours later after the lights turned off. Just a thought. Thanks.

    Lighting schedule in my 5.5

    i use timex digital timers.....they aren't the best, but they do the job. Sometimes they can reset, but for the most part it's working fine here. I run a 8 hour cycle for my tank, just the right amount, it's working out fine. When the tank matures, I may increase the time.

    Disappearing Snails

    i have a margarita snail and various N. Snails. I am considering more, the cerith snail sounds like a great addition, also another good one I heard is that red footed snail. I guess variety is the key.

    best you can do is, when the list comes up press the "delete" button for each one, until they are all gone. For example...if you were searching pufferfish, and all the stuff you previoulsy searched for with P popped up, like a common one like "p*ssy" then I see why you want to delete them so...

    Pics from Thursday

    crap, speaking of which, I forgot......I'll need to be ridding myself of it soon. It's really cool, and it's keeping the sand crystal white, but.... I hear that them sticking around longterm they take the "live" right out of live sand, and also at which they die of starvation.

    Nano Tank Questions

    diatoms are that ugly brown stuff you are seeing grow on your rock and sand. They usually die off when your water quality gets better. DI/RO is the best kind of filtered water you could be using to top off your tank or use to mix if you are making your own saltwater. Using tap water or...

    Pics from Thursday

    that's awesome. I'd like to try the harlequin since I had no luck with my Tiger Shrimps. Do the Harlequins do better in pairs? And will they work as a team to turn over the chocolate chip star and then eat it? Also you have to try out a sand sifter star, I am curious to know whether it'll...

    Nano Tank Questions

    First off, welcome to nanotank. Secondly, the reason why you have these questions, sounds like you got into the hobby quickly as opposed to doing some research. Well I guess there is no turning back so let me see if I can answer them. Lighting is important because most corals you get are...

    April Photo Contest - Vote for the winner

    # 2 and # 5 are doing well. I remember that pic of # 5 so I know who that is. Best of luck, I think #5 is the best pair of "buddies" i see on here this time around. Good luck to you all, I know things can change nearing towards the end.

    damn it, another death and or missing in jbj12 gallon

    well I found a flaw in the jbj of any tank size. In the back right and back left...there is a hole just big enough for that goby to squeeze through and get to the back chambers. I figure that's how it disapeared in the first place. To remedy the situation, since he's in my tank now, I put two...

    Cleaner shrimp died in my g/f's tank

    would have been cool if that was the case, but it was it's actual body, you could tell as it didn't look transparent or anything. Another recent death or actually went missing....is the neon blue goby. I just started another thread on that. Not quite sure why the sudden deaths, but...

    damn it, another death and or missing in jbj12 gallon

    Damn as if talking about the cleaner shrimp dying wasn't enough, now this! The neon blue goby that was very healthy and eating just fine, the other day has disapeared. Those guys are so small so its hard to say. I checked chambers 1, 2, and 3 for it, but haven't spotted anything. Either it...
