Re: Overcoming self-doubt


I'm having trouble making out the pics, but they resemble bubbles, similar to those in a beta's bubble nest. What's your tank's fish population like? It's possible they're some kind of eggs, but I'm leaning towards bubbles.

Wishing you a happy new year and hoping this helps.

Overcoming self-doubt

I'm getting these weird floating things in my Biotape aquarium, don't know what they are. Recently added some Jungle Vallisneria and other plants from the local river, and 5 days later these things show up. Anyone know what they are and how to get rid of them, I also have Jewel fish in this tank.

Re: Choosing between a lily pipe or spray bar

For optimal performance, lily pipes need higher flow rates - we're talking more than 5x the tank volume's turnover per hour. This is crucial in preventing those dreaded "dead-spots" from forming.

Re: replacement bulbs for aqua-one aquariums

I think the ADA 20w T8 would be a good fit, as Sam suggested. I've heard great things about their performance, they're supposed to be excellent for growth and colour rendition.
