Well lets say you keep your bulb on 8 hours a day. Then lets assume your heater is running 12 hours a day (depends on the temperature where you live). (your step father may have assumed the heater is on all the time).   That means you have 12 * 50 + 8 * 18 watts of electricity usage a day, or...

You would want two 24" lights for strip lights such as the marineland your looking at, as they will replace the two strips lights on what I believe is your 55g aqueon aquarium? For lights that are an actual fixture with legs, that is when you would want 1 48".

Sorry for the late response.   As long as its healthy it should be ok:). I wouldn't worried too much about him chasing the other fish unless you begin seeing problems with the other fish as a result. Yes fish do have there own personalities.   Best of luck and let me know if you need anything else!

Welcome to the forum!

Neat old reef aquarium, I hoppe you can get another aquarium setup soon. I hope you enjoy your stay. I thinking about setting up a 10 gallon nano-reef myself:).

Teeth can be a descent indicator. However, the number one thing which would be necessary is to post a picture. Also, may you please provide some more info about the tank. Red belly pirahnas can reach a foot long in size and won't do well in just any 20 gallon tank.

I would see it safe to replace the cartridge with the sponge. Or you could do what I did, and put the sponge around the intake (you can cut a notch it it, or get a hydro sponge filter replacement sponge and putit around, though I doubt it would fit on a 10. You can use media bags and put in some...

I've raised several hundred guppies and I had them with mollies at one point and I never observed the guppies chasing the mollies. I currently have some baby guppies with platies and I don't observe them chasing the platties either. Maybe I'm just lucky or maybe your just unlucky, but those are...

Your tank is roughly 15 gallons? I would say your stocking would be fine maybe a little bit on the heavy side. However, why would you get just 1 red cherry shrimp:)... it will be harder to see it if you get just one. Plus you can fit like 15/gallon because of there small bioload. If I were you I...

I agree, if you really want panda corries try upgrading to a 20 gallon. In fact chances are you would be able to find a 20 gallon tank for cheaper than a 12 gallon tank because at least in my experience 20 gallons is a significantly more standard size when compared to a 12 gallon tank so as a...

If you are not sure you could try and redo the nitrate test. Really make sure to shake the bottles (as was already said) because if you don't you could get an innacurate reading. Also, I've never tried this, so I'm not sure how well it would work, but if you have a separate storage container on...

*Note* I think in Fahreinheit so as a result, so as a result some of my celsius numbers (in paranthesis) may be wrong. However, the Fahreinheits are correct so if your not sure feel free to conver them, though I think I'm pretty close to the correct numbers.   26 or 27 degrees celsius is not too...
