    FS: Pair of Regular Motoro Stingrays

    Don't think anyone would want the female. She's pretty battered up. I'd like to move the male so I can heal back the female. Male is now going for $100

    FS: Pair of Regular Motoro Stingrays

    I tried that, lasted all of 5 minutes before either one or both rays would swim over to the other side.

    FS: Pair of Regular Motoro Stingrays

    These guys have given birth to 9 pups, 4 separate times. I would like to sell both to someone who has the tank space for them. Otherwise I don't mind selling one, to give the other a break. Female is measuring about 14" diameter and has nips and bites along the back edges of her disc. Male...

    Can water flow be too slow for a UV sterilizer?

    Every time spring/summer comes along, my tank gets more and more daylight. Every season, I have a problem with green water. I usually do water changes ever 2 or 3 days to somewhat alleviate the problem. This season, i'm going to bite the bullet and pick up a UV. I've decided to get the 36w...

    Stocking community question.

    Not able to use the FX5s really to run anything. I have a spare FX5 that I may setup should the water get really bad. I had this idea of predrilling my tank with 4 holes in the beginning to directly run with my FX5s. In the beginning it seemed like a good idea. I had pieces of driftwood that...

    Stocking community question.

    Won't be able to add a sump to the tank based on the way the tank's configured. I'm pretty diligent with the water changes so hopefully that helps a bit. Sounds like the general consensus thinks I"ll be able to pick up both. Will probably look into doing that as soon as I get rid of my motoro...

    FS: 2 motoro stingrays

    turns out they were fighting because the female was pregnant, never had experience with this so didn't even see it coming. $100 for the pup been in the main tank for 3 weeks now, eats blackworms and starting to take pellets.

    What's a good lens for shooting fish and aquariums?

    I'll definitely keep in consideration. I have some leftover giftcards from my wedding so plan to do a little spending on a camera and lens package, however everyone says I should stick with the kit lens and get a feel for the camera before I pick up any new lenses so I may just put that on...

    What's a good lens for shooting fish and aquariums?

    Planning on picking up a rebel XSI with the basic 18-55mm kit lens. Also was planning on getting a 50mm prime lens. Seems like a pretty good starter kit for me to get into a more advanced level of photography. Any other ideas for a good starter lens? Most people seem to recommend a better...
