    If it's coming from Aquarium Central I would trust their advice. I don't think it really matters what test kit they are using. Tuan is no n00b.

    When is the last time you were there? I'm telling you when I was there it was immaculate and easily has the nicest show tanks in the city. Much nicer then big als' planted show tanks.

    Awesome glad to hear you had a good experience at Aquarium Central. Did you have the chance to meet/speak with Tuan? I was actually AMAZED at Pet Land on Calgary Trail. They have an immaculate fish room with some of the most amazing planted showtanks. Whoever is in charge of that fish room is doing a great job

    It's on the glass. I had trouble distinguishing which side of the glass it was on until I held something to each side fo the glass. It looks like hard water stains or something but it is almost not even there. Can barely feel it with my fingers and a razor doesn't seem to have any effect on it. Just filled it today but I haven't checked what it will look like. The only reason I want it gone is because I want to paint the back of the tank black and don't want a white film between the glass and paint. I was suggested a magic eraser on a different site I am going to give that a try. If that doesn't work I will try the TSP then if that doesn't work who knows.

    Ohhhh I think I've seen the stuff now that you mention it's in cartons. My mom might even have some of that stuff in her basement.

    Thanks guys I will try that out. Hopefully it works. :P

    Where would I find TriSodiumPhosphate? Bummer dude. I hope it's not the same case here. Did it show lots through the painted side?

    What is tsp?

    I have some kind of film on the glass of a new aquarium I acquired for free and I cannot get it off for the life of me. I tried vinegar several times, organic clr type stuff, glass cleaner and even a razor with no success. What can I use to get it off? I want to paint the back of the tank but I think this will show if I don't remove it first.

    I seen that too and I sent the link to Iceturf :P I inquired as well even though I likely don't have the transport for it. No reply here either.

    Great looking tank. What are you using for the substrate?
  14. gBOYsc2
    Did you get them from Aquarium Central? If so which variety?

    Mine started slow but is doing alright in my "no" tech set up. Great news for me to hear! I'm going to have to get another piece of wood for the fissidens. Haha how much light is too much light?

    What a great surprise on xmas morning. Great pic! You can see those berries very clearly.
  17. gBOYsc2
    I'm confused :P

    I am pretty stoked. I bought a clump of java moss from AC and I got a nice little portion of fissidens as well as a few little plantlets of javafern in there. What a great little surprise. Very happy about that as I'm just getting back into the hobby. These should be great to get me started. Not sure if I can keep the fissidens alive though with my ultra low tech setup :P

    I agree that was extremely difficult to read. nonetheless...... I feel bad for your moms fish. Also feed bad for anyone that purchases fish from her and receives advice from her at the store she works at. Parents are funny like that. I believe my mom thinks there is nothing she can learn from me since I am her child. In fact there are TONS of things we can teach our parents. I tried to teach her a couple simple cooking tips that I have learned from TV shows and youtube but she ain't hearin it. She still thinks she's right even though she's wrong.

    What side of the city are you on rayfong? Also how big are the black rocks? Thanks Jason. Will have to check that out. What side of the city? It must be southside because everything I ever need is on the opposite side of the city haha. You can't just say that and not give a reason!!! You can't just say that and not give a reason!!! i'd think he might be referring to 'possible' toxins and or pathogens etc etc. Boil it, treat it and it will be fine. Not sure why you would stay away from wood like that. All aquarium wood is collected in the wild. Yep pretty standard for any wild driftwood. Boil in a large pot or sun bake forever. Any other methods of treating I should know about?
  21. gBOYsc2
    Thanks guys! Those are some awesome prices
  22. gBOYsc2
    That's fine if I have to assemble my own piece. I'm not too picky I just want something to give my fish a little cover for the time being. Got a link?
  23. gBOYsc2
    as the title states... does anyone know where I can get cheap aquascaping stuff in Edmonton?
  24. gBOYsc2
    Thanks a bunch for the info I'll surely look into it in the future.
  25. gBOYsc2
    Lookin good. I'm totally jealous I've been eyeing up those Mr. Aqua tanks for years. How is the flow in the far side of the tank. THink you'll eventually need a powerhead or 2nd filter on there?
