I recently dismantled my FW tank and i got the idea of turning it into a terrarium. Its a 20 gal. high tank, and I would probably like to keep a frog or 2. Any information, advice, what I would need, care methods, etc? Thanks!

Ive been having a problem with detritus in my tank. I cant get rid of it. It appears as brown dust that coats everything, giving the tank a muddy appearance. I vacuum every other week with water changes to get rid of it, and while I remove a ton, it comes back, as if it is growing. The tank is...

My last remaining rasbora heteromorpha that I have had for 6-7 years seems to be on the way out. He's swimming at a 10 degree angle upwards without much energy and occasionally loses balance and barrel rolls or goes upside down. I think the most likely cause is old age, however the tank has...

I've found the same thing, you can get a 2-3" leather for 30 if you're lucky on LI.

I have 3 conchs, not quite sure of the kind, there is a possibility that they're all queen. 8O Either way, I've never really had a problem w/ them except they ran over some yellow polyps once.

Well, whatever happened to it really pissed it off. I upped the flow and the edges are all good, but I took a peak one the inside (still hasn't fully opened) and its still bare white, though I can see some new polyp growth. Its looking like it will recover, might take a year or so though. :lol: 8O

All the more reason to strive for the next one. :lol:

Palindrome=number that reads the same forward/backward. RDO version uses your post count. It is considered a big self esteem booster to some. :P I'm pretty sure you did that on purpose though, Guy. :wink:

Tank Size-29 gallon Use of skimmer-You guessed it, a Prism!!! Open or enclosed top-Open Circulation system-Skimmer, power filter, and about 325 gph of water pump movement. Location-First floor. My tank loses a little less than .5 gpd in the summer, and about a 1 gpd in the winter.

I highly doubt the fish would ever use something like that, at least not very frequently.

Thanks, I might try one.

I'd really hate to see scat eating something. :wink:

What kind? I recently lost a pencil urchin due to an unknown cause, but he didn't seem to eat much of mine.

There's nothing bad about the box, it just happens when you post the photo as an attachment. To get rid of it, I think you have to use the [img] buttons or copy paste the picture straight into the post. Nice lionfish. :)

I hope to do the same. :D
