"respect my authoritae!" South Park |
| About Yourself: |
My father is a geology professor who helped origonate the idea of plate techtonics, my stepmother is a marine biologist who introduced me to freshwater fishtanks when she was studying crayfish behavior(she was far from the sea as we moved to Ithaca NY when I was ten). I used to raise fish I caught in the local streams and ponds. I buried flat rocks in the front corners of my tank and watched as the crayfish created their burrows, and then I was able to watch them as I had set it up so I would be able to see into their homes. I would return fish and crayfish to the stream when I went away for trips and when they got too big. I'm a respiratory therapist, I have an eight year old son, and we're both into fishtanks and N-scale trains. |
| Advice: |
Try live plants and make sure you have adequate lighting, and over-do the biological filtration. You will need to clean less often and you'll have a more stable ecosystem. |
| Fish Kept: |
14 inch arawana, 3 8-10 inch Florida spotted gars, 2 eight inch hydro gars, 2 7 inch weather loaches, 1 6 inch talapia. |

| Advice: |
Do not experiment with equipment - use good filters, lights and CO2.
Pay attention where you place your planted tank. If you have some direct light in the house, other than aquarium light, pointed on aquarium at time when aquarium light is turned off - you will get algae. |

60 Gal. Planted tank with pressurized CO2 |
| Quote: |
You don't know what you don't know. |
| About Yourself: |
I got to planted tank hobby two years ago. I started out with planted tank without pressurized CO2 and I had too much trouble to keep the plants alive. Algae out break was a nightmare. After I installed the CO2 system, thing has improved significantly. The CO2 system also keeps the algae problem under control. |
| Advice: |
Keep trying and pressurized CO2 makes all the different. |
