Im in guelph ontario. My water is pretty hard, calcium carbonate is visible in pots and other dishes after drying...ph comes out of the tap at just over 8 then drops to 7.5 once its not as aerated. I cant find any info on chloramine in guelph water although off hand im going to say its there...

Hey, Currently im using 75% ro/di water to fill my tanks, and 25 percent tap water left out for 48 hours. Im looking to know if everyone is using RO or if there is an alternative that may keep my bills down a little and my rays still happy. Thanks.

Hey, Thought i would update on how the tank is comming. Im using an old 180 gallon tank for my filtration system and am building it in sort of a sump/moving bed kind of mannor. Im filtering with three filter sox (from a tripple split 4 inch pvc pipe). There is then a baffle before 100L of k1...

Hey cirrus thanks for the input i have decided to leave it bare bottom with the liner and only add a small amount of sand (just enough for the rays to sift through and lighten up the tank a bit). The main issue with the slate for me is it has some very small pits in it. I had planned to seal...

I found out from a reef site that slate is the better option over ceramic. Also slate pool tables are fine and are not chemically treated for any reason. I will be power washing the slate pool table today or tommorow and will hopefully get it in this week and post some more pics.

I have access to a slate pool table, i was going to rip it apart and use the solid piece of slate under on the bottom but again i dont know enough info about putting this in the aquarium and any effects it might have on ph or water quality.

Decorate only. Im not sure if I would like the look of pool tiles, im still trying to make my pond look as natural as possible and the idea behind the ceramic tiles is that i can buy ones that will look like a sandy bottom. My plan is to lay concrete board on the bottom of the tank, then glue...

Anyone else have any ideas on how to choose a non toxic ceramic tile?

Any ideas/suggestions on choosing a non toxic ceramic tile?

Thought I would post up some pics of a new pond i'm working on. It measures 8ftx6ftx4ft high. Internal water volume is around 1050 gallons. It was constructed of 3/4 inch plywood and 4x4s. The number of 4x4s was not needed for structural integrity, but a deck is being built around the pond...

I will post pics this week I will be done in the next two days

Last time i picked sand i chose one without silica under advice that it could hurt the rays. Any thoughts on this?

Anyone have any ideas of what i can use for a substrate in my new pond. Its 1100 gallons with a black liner so i wanted something lighter in colour for the bottom and not too pricy. I have used sand in the past, but i wasn't happy with it because with the rays always kicking it up my water...

Congrats im sure you will have more before you know it.

Thank you

Wow that is a nice tag but for a very nice ray. I have limited room left in my pond and do not have room for another pond so I am getting a picky over what rays i choose and want something different than what I already have. Guess I will be waiting or searching for a while. Do you happen to...
