    Can you tell me more about why shrimps are so cool?

    Another thing, even a 5 gallon tank is gargantuan for shrimps. They make great pets for a desktop setting or dresser.

    At what point...

    If its small and I'm bored, I attempt to fix tanks. But the economy has made even larger aquaria really cheap, even new stuff incredibly affordable and comes with a warranty sometimes. But on the other hand if you've lost your job or your spouse has, then repairing freeby tanks takes on the...

    Nova Extreme HO Light t-5 Fixture

    If you're putting this over a 55gal, only use 2 bulbs even with Co2 addition. And if you ever move this light to a larger tank, the capacity is there, sort of future proofing your investment.

    Nova Extreme HO Light t-5 Fixture

    The newer ones with individual reflectors are pretty good, just check before, and the new boxes usually state that feature too.

    How many of us are fans of kensfish?

    Another fan here, I've bought a couple of filters, and I turned my friend on their foods. He is an amateur fish wholesaler, and he swears by their food for being economical and improving the health of his stock.

    In search of a light fixture

    +1 T5HO is the way to go. I regret buying Coralife fixtures, I eventually replaced all that I had, the reflectors are junk.

    cloudy water after using ferts

    I experienced the same thing when I was starting out. For me it was the Iron specifically, it would precipitate with something in my water, and would take around a day to clear. I've been using Dry Ferts ever since, and if I need extra Iron, I just dose more micro nutrients. If you're confused...

Cheers, the footprint is so amazing and really allows you to get creative with...
