    Water chiller

    rather than using ice cubes . . . have you thought of freezing say a 4L ice cream bucket of water and throwing that in the sump? the exact volume of ice you throw in there would need to be fine tuned by trial and error but that would give you a longer cooling effect than individual ice cubes.

    Platinum Head xback from July Panda order

    I do a handful of pellet mix, which by weight distribution equates to 10% algae wafers 10% hikari aro sticks 80% NLS sinking pellets. The aro usually takes most of the pellets. If not the loaches and the rays clean it all up. A couple hours later he gets a bigger meal of either mealworms...

    Platinum Head xback from July Panda order

    Sorry for the confusion . . . i know that I didn't get a fish like the one on cover indo 6. Maybe after we break through this recession, I'll be able to afford a fish like that. I should've included platinum "head" in the title, don't see an edit feature so maybe the mods can include that. I...

    Platinum Head xback from July Panda order

    any tips on moving an arowana?

    Last time I didn't move any of the media as I was moving from my old tank into a already established tank so probably not likely. That being said, what actually kills the bacteria colony in 15 minutes time span? Lack of oxygen? or moving water? temp? combination? I was under the impression...

    any tips on moving an arowana?

    It had nothing to do with the filters as I was moving from an old tank to a new tank. The new tank had been cycled for 5 weeks and then had been running for a month with rays and loaches in it prior to the arowana going in. Before the fish went in and after I found him the next day, I...

    any tips on moving an arowana?

    I will be moving my tank soon. Fortunately for me, I'm moving from one phase of my condo to another phase. However the last time I moved my aro, he passed away the next morning. Not sure what was the cause as he was the only guy to go out of the bunch so that leaves me a bit wary. Aside...
