Re: Discus Tank Help Please...!

I've had my fair share of experience with a 90g tall tank, and honestly, I wouldn't go that route again. The maintenance was a real hassle. But, on the flip side, my discus seemed to love the extra height and it did look pretty amazing.

Re: Will be traveling monthly for work, could use some input?

Just got back from another trip, similar timeframe. Prep was the same, no issues, and the tank was really clean. All fish were fine, but I'm starting to feel uneasy about the whole situation. It feels unfair to the fish - what if one ...

Re: Will be traveling monthly for work, could use some input?

I wanted to follow up on my previous post. I recently had the chance to test my plan over the Memorial Day week. I was away for 9 days and just returned a few days ago. The results were mostly positive - the water quality was excellent ...

I really appreciate all the tips, wilde. And I've gotta say, #2 just convinced me that I rather not have someone assist - it's just too much risk.

Right now, I do water changes every other day, and I'm thinking of bumping that up to daily the week before I leave. I ...

Re: Universal Rocks Background

I've had experience with Universal Rocks backgrounds in the past, specifically with a group of discus. In my opinion, the substrate is more of a concern, so keep it light. The backgrounds themselves are fantastic, they look incredibly natural in person. I opted for a ...

Re: 6ft Prostar rimless tank with sump- recommedation
I'd be cautious with glasscages, haven't checked them out in a while, but Waterbox seems impressive. Had a call with them, great customer service - thorough, friendly, and helpful.

Also, I was concerned about discus jumping with rimless tanks ...

Re: Digital Aquarium Water Testing?











If you get that meter you'll be able to test whenever the whim to know strikes and not have to bother the girlfriend once a week. At least you know you have color blindness. Many guys have no idea why they are unable to read the liquid test. They blame ...
