      Here are the next few stages of development at the office. Pic one is the substrate in mid dig out. It didn't smell as nasty as I thought it would, that was a bonus. Pic two is the interum tank...

      As an alternative you good get a glass lid then you can put whatever you want over it. I have an LED fixture over mine and it works very well. The glass keeps ALL the moisture in the tank where it...

      Maybe I shouldn't have posted so quickly. Back in business. I picked up a 25 gallon tall (18") today. It's not the 22" tall like at home so it will be very manageable... actually easier to work...

      I've looked at that stuff. Seeing as there is already a coarse sponge in front of it, it is redundant and I doubt very effective anyway. Even if is were effective, the sponge is adequate. My filter...

      The final on Oscar... for now. Here is a shot of Oscar posing, back to his old self. I don't see those water marks on the glass until I look at pictures that I have taken. Jeff.

      Without live plants it certainly can't hurt but with your water change schedule I doubt it will make much difference. If you add plants you don't want or need it anymore as it can soak up some...

      Byron liked post by JDM On thread : New to cichlids, any help would be great.
      I doubt that the tank has setup a cycle yet... ammonia with no nitrites and no nitrates looks like it has barely started. Water changes daily would be best. I assume that you are treating the water ...

      I dropped a dwarf lily bulb into my tank about three weeks ago and it wasn't really doing much. Last week I moved it up to the driftwood to get it closer to the light and removed some of my excess...

      With the plants and only one fish it won't need to cycle in the classic sense as the plants will more than use up the ammonia produced circumventing the ammonia-nitrite-nitrate cycle. It still...
