Yea I don't let mine get that low because that slurping sound is awful. It usually takes about 6 days from a full tank for it to reach that level on my tanks 40g or smaller and 2 weeks on my 180. I wish I could slow down the evap rate...

Sorry you have had to go through that I know it's a gut wrenching feeling especially with a tank that size. I would be stressing daily. Fish look great and i bet they are much happier in their new digs

You added some sand? I bet the rays are loving that. How's the support looking under the tank now?

Depends on you and how much time you want to spend on maintenance and proper filtration. You can overstock a tank if you are willing to get the proper filtration, do at least weekly water changes if not more depending on how overstocked you are and feed correctly. If youre planted your tank...

Youre gonna run 2 tidals 75s on that 45 gallon? I really love those tidals.

I've been looking at various brands and reading as much as I can. I've seen a lot of complaints regarding the generac equipment. It has worked well for twotankamin but even he had an issue where I believe they had to change his motor out (may have been something else). I would hate to pay...

I find it very interesting the different ways of attacking a "cycle" and introducing fish. One thing I wish I was better at is getting out of my comfort zone and trying different methods. The phrase "if it ain't broke don't fix it" comes to mind. Unfortunately with that mentality I feel I'm...

What generator did you go with Gwand? I'm also looking into this right now

Gonna give the Fluval bug bites color enhancing a try, the granules. I was gonna buy the 4.4lb bucket for $67 but I don't have a vacuum packing machine and I'm afraid it will go bad before I can use it. I really need to invest in a vacuum sealer. The EBO food also comes in kilo sized packs...

5 46 eggs dad kicked out These are just doing so well. I love watching them develop

Baby Zebra Was cleaning the tank right now and after I moved everything back I saw dad had kicked this little guy out. I haven't been checking on them I like to leave them alone. Now I've got a proud daddy on wigglers. I've got to check the caves before I clean the tank and I probably could...

I was hoping the rays were gonna dump Arozarena in the Glasnow deal, they were talking about it. He's a stud and plays better when the lights are the brightest. My guess is this is his last year as a Ray. And pitching injuries...pffttt...story of the Dodgers is exactly that and bad...

Muncy came up with a huge blast to right to take the lead bottom of the 8th. St Louis pitched a great game until they pulled the starter. That guy was painting the corners and had Ohtani all sorts of mad. Umps strike zone was suspect though, no consistency at all

Fish look happy and beautiful Magnum. That golden nugget is awesome

I fill my display from the tap but I use a dechlorinator before I add any water to what's left in my tank. I add about 10 gallons a week in buckets for evaporation as well. I squirt some Prime into the bucket first and than take it outside to fill with the hose. Our water pressure is really...

Lucky!!

Just rinse it off in the sink really well and drop it in your tank or a bucket of water so it'll soak up enough water to sink. I drop mine in my tanks right away but a lot of folks prefer them to be water logged first

LOL Mr Crabs cousin Starburst won! Congrats Gwand

Yamamoto tonight. He's been lit up his last 2 outings. He's got good stuff, I wonder if he's feeling the pressure

When I was 11-14 I was taught to hit the 1st batter of the game to gain an edge by my dad. It worked for the most part. Once I got into high school it didn't have the same effect and college ball produced zero results like that. I never wanted to intentionally hurt anyone for the most part...

I definitely see both sides and I respect your views as well. Dodgers leading 5-0!! Miller pitching a helluvah game tonight Teoscar with 2 dingers already and Mookie has 3 HRs already for the season

Guys all played like that back than that's why I enjoyed that era more than this one. You blocked the plate you got trucked period. Better make sure you put your big boy pants on and had the ball in your mitt if you were going to dare block the plate. Ty Cobb was one of the nastiest players...

One more thing, if you have plecos and even other fish they will sometimes be lodged onto the bottom of the wood. When you pull it out of the tank they don't always let go and you may not notice. I've had this happen with caves and wood so be careful when taking your tank decor out when you're...

How long has your tank been established?

My favorite memories of the red Sox are coming back from losing the 1st 3 games in the 2004 ALCS against the Yankees. I'm a Yankee hater since I was born and that was so satisfying. Roger Clemens (diet Nolan Ryan on roids). Loved him as a Sox player, his tenacity, intimidation and zero care...

These are the exact pot scrubbers I use, they work wonderfully. I use netting around them to hold them together in a row for my HOBs. Cleaning them is a bit more difficult like that but fitment is spot on

I watched Corbin Burnes pitch yesterday he looked phenomenal too. Nearly same stat line 11ks, 1 hit 6 innings pitched. 1.50 era. Baltimore did great picking him up

How would you do it? Trying to imagine this, like between the post the sponge slides down on or....?

It's really just porous rock that colonizes beneficial bacteria really well. Good thing about the bags is you can load up the amount you need that will comfortably fit. When it's time to clean just take the bag out shake it in some of your fish tank water (preferably in a bucket not your...

I was reading a thread here the other day about how boiling caused the wood to drip sap where it wasn't before. Than it was a question of whether or not the sap was good/bad for the tank which I believe in this case they deemed it bad/poisonous. I've always just let it soak myself and usually...

The kids call that a "throw-back", youre actually very cool now and relatable😆 Go Doyers!!

Without getting political im gutted for you guys up there. It ridiculous

Personally I don't like the idea of gluing the wood down. Let it soak in your tank or in a bucket and it'll sink in a couple days if not sooner. Gives you more options for placing the wood wherever you want instead of being glued down. It's also invaluable when cleaning to be able to grab...

I prefer using seachem matrix in all of my tanks. Provides a huge footprint in a small package for the beneficial bacteria in your tank. You can purchase zip up bags and matrix from Amazon for fairly cheap and drop one in your HOB instead of the carbon with some porous sponge and you'd be far...

Looks beautiful

If QC and a bit more silicone is gonna cost more to give me a product that I can count on than for heavens sake charge me more!! I'm gonna be as straight forward as I can be right now, if I had guppies in a tank that cost me $20 and the tank leaked and they all died I wouldn't be nearly as...

I'm getting my EBO stuff from Nature2aqua.com. they ship from Germany to anywhere in the world through DHL. I got triple the amount of food for the price of 1/3rd here in the states.

I dont disagree but I shouldn't have to come home from work 6 months from now to find my tank leaked and dead fish either after I bought a new tank. Not gonna lie, I do sometimes worry about my fish while I'm away and whether or not those reviews are false or true it was enough for me to spend...
