    Yes, thats JUST what I said..."just need some gravel and fish"...well, its too late to turn back now and it will be worth it when its all set up and pretty to watch. About the fish...I read some stuff here on impulse buying and so I don't want to do that...I went to a LFS and wrote down all...

    How much declor do I use for 54 gallons?

    Ok, I forgot I had a bottle of AquaSafe and *it* had tsp directions (1 tsp for every 10 gallons) so I treated it with that instead of just the regular dechlor. :) Kim

    Stocking my fish- the plan so far

    Hi...sounds like the problem will get better then? I have no idea if my water is hard or soft...I'm about to buy a test kit that will tell me. This is probably a dumb question, but if you have hard water, would installing a water softner be good for the fish as well? I have no idea how water is...

    Forgot to rinse carbon b4 putting in canister filter...

    I am not sure of what you mean...am I getting a very small sponge and slicing it to make a pocket and then slipping that over the end of the intake tube? Sorry, I'm new at all this. What do you have in your tanks? Do you use sand or gravel? Kim

    Forgot to rinse carbon b4 putting in canister filter...

    The sand is all settled...but there is a small amount of dirt in there too...when it settles on the bottom I can see it..its a very very thin layer of brown on top of the sand layer. I also put a layer of poly floss in the levels so that hopefully it would catch any sand particles...they would...

    Forgot to rinse carbon b4 putting in canister filter...

    I'm trying to clear out the dirt that is in the water in my tank that has no fish yet. I just put sand in there and waited a few days for that to settle...then saw the sand was uneven and so I spread it around but it kicked up lots of dirt again (I did rinse that sand many times before putting...

    New cave too gaudy?

    I like it. But I would move it more kinda katti-corner (I have no idea how to spell that, lol) where it will still cover the intake but not be the centerpiece. :) Kim
