I personaly have not had any problems with keeping cory cats in my breeder tanks. Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile

I couldnt agree more many many moons ago at the university when ever I set up a new tank I always used the diatom filter to remove debris from our substrates before I did anything else works fantastic and eliminates further problems with it as what we were using was collected on […]

Oh, I thought a power head was different than a power filter.

Actually, Steve advised removing the polyster layer.

I still have not had any problems with my golden chinese algae eater…I guess I have been lucky because I have heard horror stories about them of course I heard them all after I got him. Just an update since it has been awhile. My tinfoils outgrew my big tanks so we exchanged them […]

Hi Brenda,
It sounds like you do a pretty good job taking care of your koi and pond, so I don’t think you need to worry too much about any big problems arising from the rocks in your pond. It’s best to have no rocks in a koi pond, …. BUT, they sure can […]
