I didn't glue my pipes together and I haven't had any problems yet. One thing I have noticed is that after it's all installed and working, and you want to take the foam off to clean it, it's real easy to pull the manifold up through the sand, and very difficult to get it back down!

Bombing my house?

Hi all, Last night I started a topic asking for help (what else is new :lol: ) because we have become infested with those tiny ants. We've tried the ant traps and spraying along the base boards, etc...it has only worsened, as we have had quite a rainy season. In short, we need to 'bomb' the house. W...

Really like the Melanotaenia boesemani, the Lake Kutubu Rainbowfish (Turquoise Rainbowfish) & the Melanotaenia praecox. Thanks for steering me in the right direction, Diana. I was wondering what would be good middle swimmers.

I've had 2 common plecos in my 55 gal & they got very big! With the Gold nugget reaching 7-11" and the Para achieving almost 9", do you think it will be ...
