Hello all I'm back. I tore my tank down in 2008. But it feels so good to be back. I decided to do something different this time. Instead of doing a reef tank I decided to do fish only and maybe a few low light mushrooms or something like that. Really not worried about them just want to have...

I hear alot of people saying you should soak your food in RO water. My question is how... and does it really help? I always put my mush in little containers and thaw it. I add RO water to the container to help dilute it and bring it to tank temp and salinity. Not sure if the fish care. Then i...

Ive noticed this slug looking thing cruising around from time to time. He has a snout and he munches on algae on the rocks and glass. He looks just like a snail without a shell.

Im looking to eventually get a MH retrofit kit to put in my canopy. I might need to make a new canopy but can do so easily. I want to use my existing PC's. i have a (4) 96 watt system, but to make room for the halides i was probably going to go with (2) 96 watt PC to suppliment the actinic. and...

I dont know if any of you saw this but thought i would post it since i bought a wedding ring around this time. Its basically a multi million dollar settlement. If you bought a diamond or jewel during this time then you could recieve money back... Which means more money for your tank. Yipee...
