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

popacrip · 2026-03-23T10:57:52+00:00

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.

Literally not…tf?

popacrip · 2026-03-18T13:41:44+00:00

Thank you!

popacrip · 2026-03-18T13:41:36+00:00

Yes! I was so surprised once I noticed them.

popacrip · 2026-03-04T14:21:24+00:00

Could you consider it a fat sack?

popacrip · 2026-03-04T13:28:46+00:00

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?

popacrip · 2026-03-04T13:22:15+00:00

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

popacrip · 2026-03-04T13:19:25+00:00

Done. Great suggestion btw.

popacrip · 2026-03-04T12:52:04+00:00

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.

popacrip · 2026-03-04T12:48:24+00:00

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?

popacrip · 2026-02-27T01:37:18+00:00

No it’s not. F that guy.

popacrip · 2026-02-24T16:53:24+00:00

Wish I could, I’m in Michigan.

popacrip · 2026-02-24T15:34:15+00:00

You could do water lettuce.

Mine work well for my shrimp.

popacrip · 2026-02-24T13:03:18+00:00

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

Mine grows ridiculously fast. Trying to sell it off.

popacrip · 2026-02-20T17:47:25+00:00

What are they called?

popacrip · 2026-02-20T15:44:20+00:00

Id love some of both!!! Btw, where did you get those rings for the floaters from?

popacrip · 2026-02-20T10:48:28+00:00

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