| Quote: |
I have to have it. |
| Advice: |
Iam still kinda new to it myself only in for 2 years. But I can say from some mistakes I have made. Go bigger with everthing than the size of you tank. And set up a Q-tank lost a hole tank of fish due to a puffer with ick and velvet. Do water changes I do two smaller ones a week due to fish load , in stead of one big one.All levels are at 0 . Trying something new as of 8/22/06 useing a 20 gallon long as a refugium so i dont have to do as many water changes.$$$$. Will update to let know how well it workes. |
