thanks for the tips guys! I guess they are bolivian then, what the guy had labeled as bolivian seemed a little different than these though

cool, mine seems to be extremely photosensitive, if there is any light at all it will not move, and literally the second i turn off the light it begins to stir, i had the light off and left my room before, so it was totally dark in there, when i came home and flicked the light on in my room i...

I got a pair of peruvian rams a little while ago, and they seem the enjoy staying at the bottom of the tank, its a 75 gallon, and right now theres 13 rummynose,6 guppies, a pleco and these 2 rams. I use flake food but all the guppies and rummies grab it before the Rams even have a chance to...

well last night around 2 am i shined a little led light into the tank and saw it scurrying around and in the morning there was some evidence that it had been eating some of my brown algae which i hopes it would do, when i came home today it was hiding under a peice of driftwood that i had...

i floated it for a while, then added some tank water to it fora little while

I want to do the same thing in my 75g, but an amazonian black water creek

cool tank, how many watts on that?

hmm, not really sure mine did fine above or planted

its not just the fish waste, how would you feel if you had to live in a little glass box, they dont have the space to move about, as they would be roaming miles in open rivers in nature. that is equivalent to you living your life in a jail cell. You wouldnt keep a dog in a small metal cage for...

Thats nice! I really like that stand,looks like some quality craftsmanship! Make it a crazy jungle planted tank, with some huge plecos and other things!!

Thanks for all the responses! I may have done the nitrate test wrong, I didnt realize you had to shake the bottle for 30 seconds and so all those other little steps, but the brown algae would indicate some levels of nitrate, no? This weekend I will come home with either a pleco or a pair of GBRs...

I havent done anyhitng more than 10 gallons. I cant l;ift bukets because i broke 4 ribs a little while ago and am waiting to get a python. Also to let becteria build up and get the tnak cycled, but why havent i seen any traces of anyhting? I think i will soon add some peat moss to the filter to...

cool, i like that stand!

I mixed flourite and gravel together and ended up not using it, i just went with eco complete with a litte of the mixture sprinkled ontop

Hey, here is my 75G as of now, it's been setup for about a month now. I put 60lbs of eco-complete and I think it automatically cycled the tank. Its stocked with 10 rummy nose tetras and 2 guppies and I have seen no traces of ammonia nitrate or nitrite; although I have some brown algae growing. I...
