if your looking for a bottom feeder the clown loaches love the heat as long as the temp doesn't fluctuateand there is plenty of oxygen they will love it, other than that most amazonians like heat, angels, apistos, tetras.

I usually just call the puddle reefs. and I think I am going to try to do multiple leds, each colour represents a different wavlength, combining multiple colours will hopefully give a more even spectrum closer to using a 10000K and actinic flourescent. I plan to use 1 super red, 2 amber yellow...

ya I use a 10watt compact flourescent on my 5 gal nano but those bulbs are pretty big, say the size of the tank, I just wanted to know if there was anything smaller I could deal with.

not just normal nano we're talking one gallon, but besides that I just wanted to know if people have had luck with anything other than compact flourescent and metal halide, becaus ethose are alittle big for a small tank. I was looking into halogen, neon, xenon, krypton, and led. My actinics will...

Ok I know most people hate them but if there is anyone in the brampton area (ontario Canada), that has one they want to get rid of, I am designing a tank for one, all I need is to find some one with one.

Hey anyone in Brampton that needs rock now is the time, this stuff is selling fast and there is some beautiful pieces.

Hey if you are looking for cheap live rock, Big Als in Brampton has a huge order in. You have to take a full box and once it's gone it's gone, but it is only 4.99 a lb. Get it quick it will go fast. the address is 16 Kennedy rd S.

cool, thats what I thought but I wanted to be sure.

Ok I found a bristle worms a few nights ago, and tonight I got a better look, it pink and probably anywhere from 2-4". My question is, what kind of trouble will it cause, if any? and if it does will it cause it with mushroom corals and feather dusters (a fellow segmented worm) and certain fish?

Ok I just picked up some new cichlids (one of the most beautiful small cichlids out there) African mouthbrooders or Pseudocrenilabrus philander dispersus, I picked out the dominant male, and two holding females, now my question is once the females can no longer hold them and spits them out do I...

I might also consider the unfortunate fact that the cory is dyed. It happens alot with bronze corys. I could and hope I am wrong but without a pic its hard to be sure. The other option is its just juvenile form of a bronze (or green) cory, often their patterning and colour change with age.

well i guess that clears it up a little but then with the thinner part it could get confusing with males and females of the species looking like the other species. But I plan on checking out the spotted head thing at my LFS (also my work) because we had a few unamed tank of cories and based on...

First, I wanted to know what people thought about cross-breeding corys, which could and would and do naturally cross-breed in the wild traveling together with sometimes a dozen different species all live and breeding together. And second is how the heck do you tell the difference between C...

Hey I got this hitchhiker I IDed it as a sea cucumber its aboot 1cm long has a black body with white tentacles (for lack of a better word for those things it uses to feed), basically i want to know is it going to be harmful to corals or other inverts. I know it would be if it nukes itself but...
