Being a good customer, could you not just pay ahead for a pair, and if they do not last to sale, get a refund. If 2 make it to sale, the could be marked as sold. That way you get yours…

Ike Lenny, I am not sure what you mean by CO3 levels unless you are talking about CaCO3, calcium carbonate, in which case your readings are not a problem.
Your dwarf water lily is a dwarf. If you had a “normal” sized water lily, your 20 gallon tank would not be large enough for one leaf, […]
The black gold bag says .05% nitrogen, that’s it, nothing else added. It does have perlite in it, but I can scoop it out when it floats up to the surface. I went to the forum to look over instructions again, some people don’t wait it just depends on what fertilizers […]
Lets clarify what you mean by “cO3 levels”. While CO3 has been used to designate Carbonate, I’m not sure if this is what you are talking about since the more common term for Carbonate Hardness is KH. If the “between 80 and 100ppm” is for Carbonate Hardness, then this is nothing to be […]
In my freshwater aquarium, I have been having a problem with very high c03 levels(Between 80 and 100 PPM), however my co2 levels stay low - nearly unreadable. I currently have some live plants - a species of dwarf lily that I am not sure of its proper genus(And how it can be called a […]
What do the Walstad instructions say? http://thegab.org/Articles/WalstadTank.html
I was just glimpsing through the article again and saw this: “…If the soil is acidic, you can use powdered dolomite lime mixed in. If you have soft water add pelleted dolomite lime, or crushed shells to gradually increase the level of hard water nutrients over time…”
It sounds like […]
Thanks for posting the message Aaron. To answer your questions:
Yes I slowly add fish over time, due to the nitrogen cycle; as you and others know, once a tank is “cycled” it has sufficient bacteria (nitrosomonas and nitrospira) for the amount of ammonia/nitrite available to them as food. Adding fish increases the ammonia […]
Hi Ray
As my cold hasn’t gotten better and with my partner coming home on Friday saying that one of his bosses is being checked for the dreaded ’swine flu’ (and tow of his other co-workers were run up at home and told to get tested too) I was a bit worried because my cold had […]
External drive are awesome. You can either buy one all put together or you can get your own drive and put it in an enclosure. The enclosures cost around $50-60 and hard drives are pretty cheap. You can get a terrabyte drive for under $200 now…that’s a lot of space. Both usually […]
If your tank isn’t cycled properly, that is, if the nitrogen cycle isn’t fully established, then you are better off leaving just the two fish for now until you go through the entire “Cycling With Fish” process. If you haven’t read it yet, I have a link to a thorough “Cycling With Fish” article […]
