Thanks for the tips. Will an RO machine filter all the stuff from the well water?

Hello I have mentioned before about swapping to a 90 gal from a 45 but found I need a lot more then I have and my buddy is moving sooner so I'll be moving the whole 45 this weekend. Here is my plans if you guys have any tips I'm happy to hear them. First I'll be saving all the water I can so many buckets. Put the fish in a bucket and live rock in each other bucket. Covered with lids. Leaving 20% in the tanks and leaving th sand. Move the tank while on a board from my buddies to my place 5 min drive Parshal dirt roads so cover tank too. Set the tank up fill and get running put in live rock. Question is how Long to wait to put fish into the tank. 2 clowns 4 damsels 1 cleaner shrimp 1 erchint and some hermit crabs. Also what water to you use my buddy used town water I've been told to use RO but don't have that in town. Also can't use my house water as we r on a well and has iron in the water and who knows what elts. Hope to hear back soon

ok thanks for the tips. canreed is one of the best to look thought i take it. the thing i need to sort out some of the lingo lol

that what i read so far the bigger the better

my cichlid tank has a salt water light i belave have 3 sets of lights a white a blue and leds. not sure on sand its a gravel i believe. it has 2 clowns 3 damsels a few hermitcrabs and a urchin. has some live rock with anenomies on it.hit has a filter with i skimmer on it i beleave. i wont be getting the tank for a while and will keep it in the 45 for a while ill need to buy more live rock and clean the 90. ill be reading up i know the jist but know i need to know more i helped him move the tank last year so have a teeny tiny bit of expeirence lol.

hello i will be a new guy to salt water but 4-5 years cichlids. my issue is my buddy will be moving at some point and giving me his 45 salt water tank thats thriving well. i would love to swap tanks. does any one have any tips or links to help me out?

pretty simple stuff thanks

ok thanks and u get the primer put it on then put the glue on and stick together

ok didnt know if that stuff was safe. how do u tell all i know is its white and some of the stuff i have gotten is grey

hey my buddy has a tank they he just got we broke some of the pvc sump pipes what is some safe blue to us to glue the new pipes together?

ya i have a couple i just got from the lfs and a guy from cambell river. i had 2 purl muts 2 ob peacocks one selousi 4 aruatus 3 yellow labs 3 acei one ruby red could never get a 2nd one that took me 6 months to get then sold them like a month later and left for here. now its so hard to choose :s

and al these guys wound do ok in a 30-33 gal for a while till i find the right deal on a tank for me

ya my front are ina 45 right now till i get a tank for them seperate from the rest. ok cool i will have take a look at those guys once my tanks set up. ya i moved out from ladysmith on vancouver island now living in 3 hills

hello every one im new to the alberta fish world. just moved out from the island where its really hard to find anything thing really nice. any ways i would like to start up a tanganyikan tank. just not all that sure what to get yet. so far i just have 5 juvie burundi fronts, and some aruatus fry and some random guys my buddy gave me. so for now i will have a 30 gal or so but would like a 55 gal and maybe bigger if my buddy will give me a spot downstairs. for a 33 to a 55 gal later what would be some wonderful tanganyikans that i should get i really like the shell dwellers would like these guys lamprologus ocellatus. some something close what would go well with them like some calvus, julies, and leleupi. and maybe n. tretocephalus but i believe there really aggressive. any tips and where i could get them only have been to big als, frankcos and golds. in calgary soon to see more.
