I kinda agree. It seems as thou the ones with larger meshed together like spots grow quickest whereas the ones with round spot grow slooowww...IDK

in what? UFO? Ghost?

WOW beautiful GSP. I love His/Her spots. And so bright. The tank looks immaculate too. How old is the tank? what size? Im just amazed at his coloring in FW..... his tank must be real healthy. Excellent Job

OIC I had a feeling u meant that but, I misunderstood you thinking you thought it was "CURING" as in the bacteria. BC thats a common term, "Curing LR" before adding it to a system.

I dont recommend any of the goopy stuff with aloes n yady yada ya. I use dechlor its a drip style. 1 drop per gallon basically. Lasts forever too. But the favored product around here for puffers is called "Prime".

aww sorry for your loss.

Some ppl with freeze an old pepsi bottle with water and let them hang in the tank or sump to chill the tank a bit. Kinda a cheap alternative to fish tank chillers.

Can you tell us the water parameters? Its good that you doing WC's. They lights IMO shoud be on 8-10hrs max. Do you have any melafix...you could try adding some.

Nice but it does kinda lok like a reflection off the poster....It still is kinda creepy thou. Looks like a asian ghost and inverted is creepier.

Add the new tank and filters and begin piecing the sump together. the sooner the better. As long as you have the return pump and an ov...

I wish I could find my orb pics...one of them had a face in it clear as day. No kidding. Ive taken pics of them in pitch black rooms with and without flash. And the same way in well light areas too. If they were there we'd get them alot and then turn to another direction and they wouldnt be there. I...

Its not mandatory but helpful toward ensuring proper nutrition.

YA thats what I do too! but in this case the sand was live and added to FW so It Id go the syphon method to catch more dead debris. Since its adding a ton of ammonia. To remove the ammonia quickest. The once the tank re-stabalizes use the easier method Pufferpunk suggested.

What you want to do is buy an extra hose that fits your syphons mouth, Add the tubbing make it longer than the standard ones. Make sure the hose you buy is the very pliable. So begin syphon as you would with gravel then with your other hand pinch or kink the line just as the sand is about to pass th...
