    Reverse Osmosis

    water changes! :) A skimmer probably helps keep the water clean for longer, but to keep nitrates and nitrites down in a small tank your probably gonna have to do like 1/4 tank water changes weekly or 1/8th of a tank every other day or so, this is what i do, in a 3 gal tank with no skimmer, and...

    my redsea nano updated pics

    does xenia need to be in a low flow area? I just added a new aquaclear 20 to my tank last night, it hangs perfectly on the side and i have to turn the thing almost all the way down to keep the flow under control, I think im gonna slowly increase the flow each week to get a high rate of flow...

    Well the xenia is looking nearly fully extending and pulsating happily now, my nitrate and nitrite levels have never spiked too bad at all to be honest, I have been changing my water pretty religiously, an 1/8th of the tank probably every other day so I havent noticed too many spikes in algae...
