snaggle

My wife has to laugh at me beacuse I have a step tool to reach that back middle of my 150 and I find that the stand it too short. :boxed:

Using the sponge filters will use less power. I use sponge filters in my grow out tanks/QT tanks I find that if stock levles are low and you change the water every two weeks or month depending on stocking and give the sponges a good rince in old tank water that they will be fine. I also use a sponge filter rated to 40 gallons in my 20 gallon tanks.

I usaly go to big als, only because of the hours and I live out of town. But I perfer to shop at natures corner.

If you check out Canreef the members from Edmonton some times have meet and greats at there houses.

If you do go saltwater, do lots of research and don't cheap out equipment. I did saltwater until I moved to Wainwright and didn't buy all the good equipment and I had a hell of time keeping the tank clean.

rumor has it the 50'th street one will be sold off or closed too, not sure exactly when. I wonder how much they want for it? :smokey:

What kind of add did you put up? If it was a looking for add, and she was offering stuff at a good price, I would not be to worried just only deal in cash and get the stuff at the same time cash is handed over it should all be good.

The sevs seem to be fine with the plants wjen they are well fed, but when I went away for a week they did some damage to the plants.

Here are some pics from my 150 semiplanted SA tank. 72"x18"x29" Jungle Val Red-Blue Tertas 1 L333 pleco 1 ABN pleco 1 Comon pleco 5 sevs 4 angles 7 orange laser corys filter FX5 w/ peatmoss meida 2x250w jager heaters 184 w of lighting I would like more plecos, val, and some dwarf cichlids for this tank. I would also like to get a seconed FX5 and change the lighting to T5 from T12 and PC.

WC woll also some times be F0, FYI.

I got this link from a diferent forum and thought it was cool. paludarium construction

The computer tank would be a good thing bettas, but at only .36 gallons I think it should be more like 1 gallon. I just like that it is heated you never see small tanks heated and yet people put bettas in them.

check out sand blasting supply shops they should have some "Sil sand" there. I think most people have beed using Sil 9.

Any glass shop can cut a piece if you want to replace the pane yourself. Myself, I would take it in to a place like Aqarium Illusions that is in the business of building tanks. That way I'd be more sure of the repair being done right. You owe me $.02 It is not too hard to replace a pain of glass, I don't thnik that is worth the cost of Aquarium Illusions to fix the tank for you. Check out the DIY section here and aquarticles.com yoy will find some good info on fixing tanks.

What size is you tank? What is your stock list?

If you have the TV too load alot then I can see it stressing the fish.

A 4-10,000 gallon copy of my curent 150 with rays added, and a 4-10,000 gallon shark reef tank on the other side of the room. Check out this build to see what I want.

I tryed to lighten them but it maked the black water look like "pee" :boxed: . I only had the camera for 10 min and have never used an SLR before so I hope that next time I can get better picks.

Here is a link to some pics that I took of my 150. I haven't had a chance to load them on to photo bucket yet I will edit the thread once I do that. http://www.aquatic-photography.com/ my 150 SA black water tank://http://www.aquatic-photography.com/...lack water tank I am going to try and swip the same camera later this week so I can get some better pics of the tank after I clean it. I have been a little busy that last 3 weeks and have not cleand off the glass. :shifty: :banned:

There are some good ones here as well. Watch all 6 it takes almost an hour though.

If you can't fid it any where and you are heading up to Edmonton the pet store in Sherwood park used to have somew the owner frank made. I am not sure if he still sells it but it was the same food he used for his discus breeding.

There is always a danger of cracking the tank when drilling it. Just check the bottom to see if there is a sticker that says "don't drill" that usually means that it is tempered glass.

Check here http://www.adana-usa.com/rocks I checked shipping to my parents it was under $20.

Yes he is. Clayton if he is still there is also good, as well as Frank the owner if you get a chance to see him.

Next time you are in the pet store in the park Talk to Yipwa (spelling) he has custom ordered fish for me before and can help you pick one out.
