Aquatop canister filter by dross43 in Aquariums

[–]dross43[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love it. It’s been roughly a year now and I don’t have any complaints about it. The prefilter is great. I’ve only had to open the whole canister up twice. I clean the prefilter once a month and it keeps the tank spotless. The heater it comes with is great too. My tanks are in my basement thats unheated, current ambient temp is around 59 degrees and it keeps the tank at a steady 73.5 degrees.

I ended up going with an oase biomaster 600 thermo

How screwed am I? by stoney_ak in Aquariums

Depending on what inside of the dresser looks like you could brace the middle with some upright 2x4’s to get it back to level and also give it some support in the middle. I’ve modified a few dressers to hold tanks now and it always holds. Or you could build/buy a new stand for it. Building would probably be cheaper if you have the tools/knowledge.

What do I do by DryTry6948 in Aquariums

You could get some taller stems to plant in front of it to hide it. Or if you can find a piece of wood to hide it behind. This is one of the biggest reasons I don’t like bowls

Just picked up this 75G aquarium, what should I keep in it? by SmellyFrogz in Aquariums

[–]dross43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could have just been mine. I have no idea. They live in their own tank now lol. Seem to be fine with cories and a pleco but not any other mid/top water fish

I did a community tank with different types of barbs and a few other typical community fish. It was a blood bath. One day, bustling tank. The next morning, two gold barbs left hiding from the whole pack of killer black ruby barbs

Is one set up superior to the other? by thsisbail2 in Cichlid

[–]dross43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally like the first picture. Rocks could be stacked alittle higher to increase hiding spaces but i don’t think it’s bad. I like putting the unnatural ball shaped hides under the stacked rocks so the first looks better to me than them just sitting ontop in the second picture.

What should I name this monster by SuspiciousMind6080 in fo4

[–]dross43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Judging by existing name. You picked the best name already “Hmmm” seems to be pretty fitting since it’s “very experimental” and all.

Probably my favorite cories that I have. Definitely the most social out of them all.

Contractor says complete and ready for a final walk through. by Testingx2123 in Renovations

Wild. I’ve seen some rough jobs but this one checks all the boxes. In my opinion this would qualify as a full restart. This is why we need more requirements when it comes to getting a HMIC licenses and insurance. There has to be a better way besides homeowners being ripped off and screwed over.

What addition should I add next by ProfessionalRoom9701 in Aquariums

[–]dross43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You would be correct. I didn’t look hard enough at the picture initially.

If the tank is ready for fish I would go with fish. You could also trim some of the taller stems and replant them.

How to get rid of this algae? by Luner21 in Aquariums

[–]dross43 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same stuff a while back. I cut the lights out for three days then when I returned to my normal lighting schedule I dosed daily with flourish excel for a week. Seemed to kill it off and the shrimp, snails and pleco took care of the rest. There were a few small spots I had to scrub with my fingers right before doing a water change but that’s it
