Those are beautiful tanks!

I have a co2 tank, the super s is sold as a disease inhibitor.......supposedly as good as or better than a uv sterilizer....there are four or five different models at least two of them are sold as algae inhibitors though..

I'm not sure it's all that fantastic....thanks for your thoughts....

It's been several months since I've used the twinstar super s in my 60 gal with 20 gal sump. the water is not as clear as when I had the uv sterilizer (on a smaller tank) but now I have some kind of fungal infection going on with my cories..I do a fifty percent water change weekly and must admit I'm not terribly impressed with the twin star..wondering if anybody else has similar concerns.i think my mistake was not quarantining the new cories prior to placing in tank..They were so beautiful and healthy looking.....am now thinking of going with another uv filter...however was under the assumption the twin star was so much better.any thoughts?

Awesome!

This sounds like a fantastic idea! Hope Mr.Burton is successful,in any event I've pledged to receive one and am looking forward to trying it.

To fishclubgirl for the great plants I picked up today! J

Well I've made them..super easy..so far so good,in the tank for a few days, only little BNP in them so far...looks like they preferred the slate caves...

Has anybody tried scupley oven baked clay for pleco caves? Your input is greatly appreciated.... J

Yes.i have two of them. The twin star s for the shrimp tank. The super s for the 80gal tank. I assume they are doing their job, the water is clear until the twin star starts....no bacteria that I know of...so far so good.it does not stop all algae though...

Great video! Loved the music as well. J

Yikes! Thanks Senenity.

Super! Now I can retrieve my assassins from another tank and put them in with the shrimp again! Thanks for the replies. Cheers J

I've been reading up on assassin snails and there seems to be varying beliefs that the snails will eat baby shrimp and possibly healthy shrimp as well..I can't see how such a slow moving creature can catch a shrimp? Any ideas? J

Good morning Ron! I've been following your new venture into salt water...just wondering what's happening these days...it's been great to watch the progression! J

Welcome..it's great to meet another newbie...
