Just remember that no fauna will remove the requirement for you to occasionally clean the tank.

Correct! - It will be (assuming equal heat pump efficiency) about the the same as running a water cooler. The laws of thermodynamics are a ***

De-chlorinator is a water conditioner. It's Venn diagram circle would be wholly contained in the Conditioner circle.

91 F / 113 F Heat index just past noon. We have A/C so it just costs me about $0.50/hr to stay cool.

Being an intro thread, I hope this is not too hijacky ... This alternation is caused by a historical palatalization of /k/ which took place in Late Latin, and led to a change in the pronunciation of the sound [k] before the front vowels [e] and .[2][3] Later, other languages not directly...

One of my English pet peeves - In Greek, the C is a alternate form of Sigma and pronounced as an S in English. K uses the hard pronunciation. I'm unsure of how or when the C pronunciation ambiguity krept into English.

But here is the rub If you exhaust air out the window, you will form a partial vacuum (or a lower pressure) in the room compared to outside. As pop science says, "nature abhors a vacuum", and air will now flow into the room from ... The hot outside

This is correct - The exhaust air* is just a bit warmer than the intake air (due to inefficiencies of the dehumidifier system), it does overall make the room air less humid, and therefore more comfortable, but it is not cooling the air inside the closed system of the room. * - In addition, the...

Any closed system will undergo an increase in entropy (heat). This is Thermodynamics 101. You must remove the heat from your system (home) via pipes or ducting.

So I bought a box of Cracker Barrel* Mac & Cheese with great anticipation. I carefully opened the box top noticing the expected macaroni and foil bag of artery clogging cheese. Searching for the directions on the box, all over, finding none, I nearly sprained my neck as I discovered them on...

I can't recall if there was any English slang, but I loved Red Dwarf, need to re-watch it.

Why not Siberia?

🏃‍♂️ 🕷️

The molecular mass?, I looked it up. Of course if I had worked it out I would may have caught my earlier error :)

Can we all not just move to Canada and Siberia? 💡

Imagine the jumbo versions of all the dangerous Australia fauna :o

Hah, I always make that mistake, that is why I am a EE and not a ChE - lol

And for those that want to do the math, there is Avogadro's number, which is is number of particles in one mole of a substance. One mole is equal to the atomic mass of that substance in grams. e.g. Carbon ~16 g L = 6.02214076×10^23 which is a very big number. Molecular mass of SiO2 = 60.08...

Finger crossed for some serious Brisket https://www.thevintagenews.com/2019/03/16/yuka/?chrome=1

There seems to be some debate/uncertainty in the questions/comments on Amazon if this works for freshwater, or possibly the color chart is for saltwater only. Can you advise?

That is true but it is not the reason, the real reason is much more spooky and has to do with transmission line theory and Poynting Vectors.

I'm thinking of replacing some of my cover panels with this, I believe you can cut with diagonal cutters.

Your params are fine for Corys and Neons https://www.seriouslyfish.com/species/corydoras-aeneus/ https://www.seriouslyfish.com/species/paracheirodon-innesi/

Nah, I just let the locals live - Or if they are about to be exterminated by the local 'eeektoids' I relo them outside.

I use spiders to trap flies

An HOB with a cover on the filter and the tank would probably solve the problem. If it doesn't, at least get a internal filter with a decent flow. Aside: I don't think a sip or two from your cats is going to cause an issue.

The fixtures themselves almost certainly have 3.3v or 5v power rails and are safe. Even if they dropped in the tank and shattered the current would be minimal (but don't do this :) ). The power supply (Deck of cards looking thingum) which converts mains to the low voltage looks to be potted...

Since you did a full tank 'clean', and assuming you don't have a test kit, do the following: Change 80% of you water with conditioned water daily. Vacuum substrate when you change the water (WC). If bare bottom, remove any uneaten food, poop (or mulm as we call it) at each WC. Feed minimally...

No worries :) We all started somewhere. We have everyone from beginners, novices like myself, and others that either have or could publish books and papers.

The bottom bits, gravel, sand etc Ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, pH via a test kit. Also GH and KH but these can usually be obtained from your tap water supplier https://www.fishforums.net/threads/cycle-your-tank-a-complete-guide-for-beginners.475055/

I have a school of 9 Black Skirt (Glofish) along with 6 Buenos Aries and 10 Corys with no issues. Every once in a while they get a little feisty but the tetras actually cross shoal a bit. This is however in a 6' 125 gal tank, so that may be a factor. I should add that it is usually the BA that...

Welcome to TFF! Is this an internal sponge filter with an airstone? How long has your tank been set up prior to the change? What substrate do you have in the tank? What are your water parameters?

Thanks, I recall reading that, along with some discussion as to the pH WRT dissolving the crystals (IIRC). My stock pretty much ignores the roots after a quick look see if I add new plants.

Yes, Pothos and Bamboo in my case, and thanks!

@Byron Can you comment on Riperian plants WRT the above and if they will take up nitrate?

I've had this happen before. You can get a vapor lock if there is air in a rising loop. Assuming the tube is not clogged, make sure the hose is laying flat on the floor and the lower end of the hose (the outlet) is as low as possible, the lower the better. Off a back porch, down the stairs...
