    Condy's - yes? No?

    Thanks all for the feed back........ I will not go the Condy route, at least not in this tank, as I do want to keep some fish. Again, referencing my reading.......mushrooms and polyp's would be a better and safer way to go? Any other suggestions for the "new" tank so that it will grow in to a...

    Condy's - yes? No?

    Recently visited LFS, looking around, Saw a nice looking Condy, LFS guy said, "good, easy to keep". Came home and did some reading, there are varying opinions on keeping them from definetly "NO" to "MAYBE" to "YES". I am just in the beginning stages of stocking my tank, have a cleanup crew and...

    tank covers & jumping fish

    I am buying my RO, 5 gallon buckets, that might end up being a lot of trips to the LFS, but in the summer I may have a heat problem in the house, I do not have AC. Kathy

    tank covers & jumping fish

    don't you have a huge evaporation problem without a top or with the egg crate, especially with the high intensity lights? I was looking for an acrylic or glass top for my little 30g now that I got my new light fixture, but what I am hearing, is this may not be necessary? Kathy

    Need some input

    This site has been very helpful to me as a 'newbie' to the whole SW experience. I have viewed so many threads and have learned a lot in a very short time thanks to the experienced folks that frequent and run this site. While looking at tanks and pics and trying to decide what I want my tank to...

    adding cleaners - ?how many?

    LFS definitely had it named Tequilla Turbo Snail, Shell is multicolored, has thin silver bands all the way around, and comes to a point on the top of the shell rather than the side that the other Turbos have. The Queen Conch measures approx 1-1/2" from tip to tip, so hopefully I have some time...

    adding cleaners - ?how many?

    Thanks Ray......... I was trying to make a shopping list, you made it much easier for me since you know all about these little critters. I am sure at some point in time I will be able to make decisions like that on my own, but right now I feel unsure and afraid I will screw up. Thank you...

    adding cleaners - ?how many?

    I have read the "1-per gallon" rule before, but I guess my question is, 1-per gallon using a mixture of all three, so that I have a totoal of, say, 30 total. There isn't one kind I should go heavier with or are they all about equal at this point??? Thanks for the clarification on the "rule"...

    adding cleaners - ?how many?

    I'll be going to the LFS today to buy the 1st of my cleaning crew. Have new 30g - no inhabitants as yet. My question; how many of what should I start out with. Everyone says start slow, but what is a safe number to start with that is not going to throw things out of balance. Should I get a...
