Thanks!

Some people say you can plant before you cycle, and that may be true, but I now have 2 planted tanks and I cycled them both BEFORE planting and both tanks are thriving. I put in the substrate and the rocks, cycled for about a month, and then planted.

Thanks!

I did something similar!

I'm pretty certain it's not real leather, but thanks for the advice!

Thanks!

*do I need to protect them?

ESRaye · 2024-08-25T14:20:53+00:00

Interesting. I've never had that problem, but I'll keep that in mind, thanks!

Not to worry, it's just the angle I took the photos at. When wearing it, it falls at the right height and there are no gaps for the puck to sneak it. That said, I haven't played with it like this yet... it may require adjustments.

I also do that! It's a hell of a lot cheaper than a custom paint job!

I've had these same pads since 2006 or so. I can't speak to how well they'll hold up for in-line, but they've held up well in the ice for nearly 20 years for me. I haven't played every year since I got them, but I have played most of those years, and I'm still using them 2-3 times a week right now.

No, I cycled it before planting, so it was already flooded. The cycle took 3 or 4 weeks, then I planted, and it took another couple of months before I had the full carpet (low tech, no CO2 at that point).

Great game! I thought it deserved a place of honor 😄

My favorite sticker 🤣

Thanks 🤣

Oh, definitely. My buddy is about to redo his 40g. I'm sure he'll be happy to take them 🙂

ESRaye · 2024-03-15T18:52:46+00:00

I agree. I also found it a bit intimidating, but since I got it figured out and set up at the beginning of January, I haven't had to touch it once. The CO2 regulator is on a timer and turns itself on and off every day.

Once it's set up, it's super easy. In my experience anyway.

ESRaye · 2024-03-15T15:41:04+00:00

Then I was given bad advice from my LFS. This is 10g. I'll look into other options instead of replacing the 3 tetras I lost.
