I am looking to buy the milwalkee co2 unit and need suggestions on what else I need beside this to get it running. Thanks Milwaukee CO2 Regulator with needle valve, solenoid valve, and bubble counter

Any suggestions, is this as good as traditional paintball cylinder C02 systems. http://www.strictlypetsupplies.com/_042781005157.html I have a red sea co2 system now with a paintball cylinder but it exploded :sad: because the glue came loose from the pin and now I am terrified of the thing...

nothing is silly if it helps :-0 Copper safe can't be used on plants and yes I took the carbon out, but thanks for asking.

Okay so I treated my 65 gallon planted tank for ich for two weeks with RID ICH and no change. I have lost 20 fish. Mostly tetras and cherry barbs but I also lost a pleco, kuhli loach and SAE. Only the tetras, rummy nose tetras,cherry barbs and SAE's have it (my angels, danios, black skirt...

I have ICH in my tank. I read a lot of the ich posts on this board but didn't see much about ICH with plants or cherry shrimp or cory cats or frogs. WHat is the best way for me to treat it with those factors? Thanks.

Thanks, my filter has the following from bottom to top: 2 foam 3 carbon bio balls ceramic rings floss Thanks for the advice!!!!

Okay so I got my first Canister filter and have a few questions, the directions are minimal and I want to make sure I do it right. The tank is 65 gallons. 1. It says to clean the foam every 3 months and everything else replaced monthly, is that true? How often should I be cleaning vs...

will that make my plants straighten up?

Does it matter where in the tank you put the input/output valves for a canister filter? I have a 65 gallon and I just got a new canister and I put it in the middle. Also my myaca and rotella is leaning in towards the valves, and my plants are swaying a bit, anyway I can stop that? The...

I just can't seem to pick a canister filter, I am stuck between these three: Marineland's new c360 - 360gph Eheim Pro II 2028 - 275 gph Eheim Pro III 2080 - 450 gph I have a planted tank, with a heavy fish load. (60 fish - 2 angels and the rest small schools) What do I do...

I have a 65 and am looking for a canister filter, all the ones I am looking at are canister

Okay everyone has been so nice to suggest filters for me. I was ready to purchase either the eheim classic 2217, Pro II 2028 or the Pro III 2080 then my LFS suggested the marineland 360. AHHH, more choices, can anyone help?

I have a 65 gallon tank and only my angels, danios and honey gouramis stay at the top. My bottom is filled with tetras, corys, kuhli loaches, frogs, etc. Any suggestions for the top? Are Fire Green tetras or true rummy nose tetras top swimmerrs? Thanks

I am willing to pay it if it is worth it. I have spent a lot of money on my tank and although I don't want to break the bank, I love my fish and don't want to sacrifice either. I heard the pro series wasn't constructed as well, is that true? My concern with the classic is that is will go away...
