Re: Brackish to Freshwater

PS I will do a complete tear down if I have to but with everything else going on I certainly would prefer not to have to do that. My refractormeter does not go lower than .020 so I ordered a pond sg meter that goes all the way down to 0.00. I will not make the transition until I am confident my leve...

Re: Well meaning boyfriend...MY BABIES!!!

Why do a 90% water change when there is no evidence that there is any problem with my bacteria or evidence of an inactive nitrifying cycle? I don't want to take my tank from .006 to .014 to .010 and bam back to .006 I think I'm more comfortable doing daily 10% water changes to get back to .006. rath...

Which to treat first...

I acquired 3 new F8's (they will be an eventual addition to the 3 I already have). They are going into a hospital tank... but need to know the sequence of medicating...

Treat with PolyGuard, then Praziquantel, vice versa or both at the same time?

Help...

Re: Oxfendazole; safe?

Sweet we'll be worm free by this evening!!! :lol:

Re: Tiny little Pollianna

Yippie! Yeah I'm thinking with her petite little self the 20g tall would be just fine for her. And hopefully my new big boy gets healthy, fattens up (a little growth spurt wouldn't hurt my feelings either) then he can have the 46g all to himself.
