we need more info. so far this is a stab in the dark. what filter? how do you clean it and how often? when did you clean the tank and rocks out completely? do you always keep the water low? (below the top rim or the filter inlet [specify which if either, please]) please measure the tank and...

lure her in with nice things...hbZAofv571w works every time! :uhoh:

well, that post went to crap, somehow. i hope they get the bugs worked out soon.

excellent vid! anyone who's followed from the onset knows that every word uttered was 100% on point. i can't wait to see how things go when small reptile, amphibian and fish keepers realize they're next.if the everglades are going to be the basis of federal law making on invasive species, here's...

if it is lack of N causing cyano, this is one time i'd suggest EM as a first resort instead of a last resort. clear that up and start from scratch and see where that gets you. i'd hate to start a tank that already has problems only to find out more are coming and i've just limited how i can...

a day late, but yesterday i installed a hose adapter on my shower head... then on the 50 - 3X's 75% w/c's then on the 30 - 3X's 50% w/c's today... ferts on both and re-fill feeders.

yes, but skip the "secret" sauce.

my gps and my phone went wacko at the same time just before 10pm tonight. interesting...

signed and forwarded, thank you.

i'd have to check, but i think the aqueon w/c system uses the standard 3/4" hose threads. if so, then absolutely.

manufacturer: Watts manufacturer parts / upc codes A-668 (GH4) / 0 48643 07188 9 /// 3/4" MH x 1/2" FIP /// this one connects to the shower pipe. teflon tape should be used between this part and the pipe itself. A-677 (GH6) / 0 48643 07192 6 /// 3/4" FH x 1/2" MIP /// this one connects to...

we never said you weren't going to do them, either. we just know how it is when you get in a slump and don't want to do something because it's more difficult than it's worth. ;)

if it'll reach, yeah. you'll need the 1/2" f.i.p to 3/4" male hose thread adapter for it. then to take the shower head on and off easily without stripping it and/or making it leak, you'll need another adapter with 3/4" female hose thread to 1/2" MIP. FIP = femaile iron pipe MIP = male iron pipe...

actually, he's right about the spleen. i just didn't know about his mono when i posted about the liver. http://www.webmd.com/digestive-disorders/picture-of-the-spleen http://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/infectious-mononucleosis-topic-overview sorry to be a spoilsport, but this is the boys...

ha! found a solution... http://www.plantedtank.net/forums/diy/161305-diy-solution-faster-water-changes.html#post1679160

that's the way to do it, but i don't quite fit under that particular sink anymore if anything happens while the hose is connected. on the bathroom sinks, i'd have to change a spigot anyway, so i figure why not put that extra spigot where we need it.

well, this is how i drain... look... no hands! still no hands. filling up the bucket i'll use for rinsing and cleaning... when i'm done, this gets kicked over. it never gets carried anywhere full of water. ;) if it's not freezing out, i'll use the hose spigot... right now...

no, but i stayed at a holiday inn express last night...

think of and search out ways to make them easier. this works wonders for me...

+1 nerdy... why fight it, man? get a length of vinyl hose with the same I.D. as your gravel vacs hose, but long enough to make it outside or to a drain/toilet/etc.. then refill with the hose and add your dechlor. you can make something like this for easy w/c's as well... it will...
