  1. You will maximize the plants use of the CO2 if you inject the CO2 in the Return from your sump. You can also set the pipe coming from the tank so that it is the below that water line of you sump that way you will not bleed off too much CO2.

  2. I have seen people breed them in some small tanks, such as 20g, but if you do that you will need to do twice daily water changes as a minimum. If you go with your 29 bow use two sponge filters unning power heads and change the water every day, I would also go bare bottom and use peat if you need lower the PH.

  3. Thanks Greg, the toad is from West Edmonton mall in the sea life caveran, and the cat is my cat that ran away sort of, she went to live under the front porch of a house down the street for 3 week, she was not happy that I saw her.

    Slide show has beed updated with pics from the Toronto Zoo and a new slide show since I had too many pics for just one.

  4. I think that NLS is one of the best foods that I have ever used, I have been keeping fish for 15 some odd years. I still like to add other foods to the mix but that is just me. I don't see me not using NLS even though I have trouble to get it with out traveling. My fish stayed heakthey with any thing being done to the tank for over 3 months While I have been in Borden, and they are eating nothing but NLS.

  5. I had my tank builder do a similar repair on a customer tank when I owned my store and it was recommended by them to keep the tank water as low as possible for 10 - 14 days after installing the brace.

    Not to argue with a "tank builder", but 10-14 days would be serious overkill. Once the silicone is cured its cured, waiting longer doesn't make it "more cured". Ha ha.

    People don't even wait that long after building a new tank!

    Boom :boom:

    I have heard that silicone can leach stuff for up to two weeks after it cured, it is not a strength issue at all.
