pretty sure emma and martin consider a 6 foot 120 gallon the minimum for full sized clowns.. i may be wrong though, it might be 150g

thawed frozen bloodworms and shrimp, shrimp pellets, flakes, sinking wafers/pellets, etc

yea, well we arent heating our house currently, but my room stays a constant 20ºc, but if its hot outside (like 30º+) then my room may rise to 22º or so.. still too cold for the fish ok so i was looking at the hagen tronic and the visitherm stealth heaters, both pretty much the same price, and both ...

thanks for the idea of using gravel from another tank, i have like 75 lbs in my 70g.. which is more than enough, so i can always take enough out to make a nice 2" layer in the 10g q-tank good heaters are a must around here.. its canada! but seriously fish will die if the water gets too cold, which i...

ok, so when i estimated $90 for the q-tank heres what i factored in: $15 for tank (and screen top) $25 filter (aquaclear mini) $20 heater (tronic or visitherm?) $10 for 10 lbs of gravel $20 for plants and a cave i'd think having gravel in the tank would aid in making the fish more comfortable, espec...

loachfan, i was a frequent member on BCAquaria for a while, then stopped, now im only on 2 forums.. i live in parksville, just north of nanaimo on vancouver island, i'll look into ordering from her although b. kubotai isnt on her stock list plaalye, i know i wouldnt need the aquaclear filter, but th...

alrighty, i'll explain it to my parents.. all i really need is a tank, filter, heater, some gravel and a couple plants/caves if i buy it all new at petsmart it'll be about $90.. all the used 10-15 gallon setups i see on craigslist and in the local buy/sell are usually $100 and in really bad conditio...

i dont have a q-tank, im not alowed to get another tank, and the only other tank i have is the 10g with a solitary male betta in it so my options are kinda limited :lol: a 10g would be too small to quarentine 6 kubs even if i could.. i have some rubbermaid tubs though, maybe i could use them? :? my ...

hey all, been a month or so since i last logged in still looking for some B. Kubotai for my 70g, the local fish shop that can order in fish cant find an importer than has kubotai in stock, they are in high demand apparently.. petsmart has some, but all the fish i bought from them died within days so...

the tank is looking beautiful! cant wait to see the loachies in there

i think this quote is from the Spinal Tap movie:
"why does it go up to 11?"
"because everyone else's only goes to 10"
"why didnt you just make 10 louder?"
"this one goes up to 11"

is this a joke?

if you think the killing of crabs and lobster for food is cruel (simply putting them in boiling water) or even cows and pigs, i recommend you never look on the PETA site for what they do to chickens in the slaughterhouse

gorgeous tanks janme!

i love that pic of all the baby sewellia in a heap, looks like a pile of puppies!!

what do you mean by 'normal' ammonia levels?

ammonia and nitrite should be at zero, and nitrates should not exceed 30 ppm

i feed my betta squished ants and mosquitoes hahaha, i wouldnt feed live as i'd be afraid of the ant biting the insides of the fish

hes still alive and kickin, so i guess its safe, just as long as there is no pesticide (such as raid) ANYWHERE in or around your house
