    Sump For 90 Gallon.

    That sump looks too small for a 90. You will want to leave enough space just in case the power failed where The water will keep flowing until air enters the siphon and stops it. And by the looks of it, it has a water level indicator which is too low for you to be able to do much in it. It might...

    Is My Tank Cycling? Noob To The Hobby - I've Also Read The "re

    Usually those bottles of bio starter won't work unless you have a constant source of ammonia (fish). Most of the nitriting bacteria in the bottle will actually die during shipping, not reanimate when hitting water, or die in the tank before it can consume it's food. I would just add plants. Dead...

    Goldfish Issues

    I never had an issue with mine eating tank mates but I always put in all my fish at once to prevent territorial dominance and the tank doesn't have to go through so many nitrogen cycle spikes.

    Its Not Freshwater, Its Not Marine... Its... I Don't Know Yet.

    Switching over to marine is always fun. I done it with several freshwater tanks of mine. You technically can add black sand but you won't have the pH buffering benefits of reef ready sand. But if you can add plenty of live rock then you shouldnt worry. The sand will just need to be boosted with...

    Goldfish Issues

    With a tank that big and great water quality, you have nothing to worry about. I would suggest getting some tank mates for the goldfish. Maybe a school of tetras or top to mid water swimming fish. Fish tend to beg for food so they can splash or jump when they think it's feeding time. Just...

    Best Filter In Canada For A Betta In A 10 Gallon?

    If you're putting substrate(gravel) and decoration into the tank, a sponge filter won't give the proper water flow and the air pump can get loud. You can get a HOB(hang on back of tank) filter rated for 10 gallons and it will run silently. It will be easier and cheaper to find filters too plus...

    Turtle Food

    My Red ear slider eats one level teaspoon of zoo med aquatic turtle food every 1-2 days and 4 inch sheets of omega one green seaweed daily. She sometimes eats the river shrimp that is fed to the green sunfish she shares the tank with. As she gets bigger and older, I will be slowly increasing her...
