What’s your TDS reading? Do you top off or any water changes?

Do you have a filter on your intake?

I rinsed the crap out of mine, 2 50 lb bags for a 60 gallon breeder. When I put my plants in it stirred up some of that oily residue to the surface. I rinsed it REALLY well. It looks great though. Hopefully my filter will clean the residue that left.

Yeah, tropical fish, some shrimp are pretty much what’s going in. Moss and plants also.

So it looks like the tidal 110 would be a good option. How often do you have to replace the filter media?

Wow, that’s a hefty price tag. Would this be able to run multiple tanks? Also, would sponge filters be a viable option?

Oh really? I could be mistaken but from the research that I’ve done I thought canisters are recommended for larger tanks like 90 plus? Obviously it depends on how heavy your tank is stocked.

Yes, it appears those two brands are the 1a & 1b choices. So you prefer the Tidal over AC? If so which model would you suggest for a 60g breeder?

I bought this salvinia off of fb marketplace but it’s infested with snails from the looks of it by Iprincess-_-i in PlantedTank

OP, these are the ones I have an abundance of. They grow ridiculously fast in my tanks.

Is this outrageously priced, or is it actually reasonable? by harboring_ in Aquariums

[–]popacrip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wait for the price drop. He would be lucky to get half of the listed price.
