    Dehumidifier/Evaporation Question

    I keep my fan on in the room all the time, I don't keep running the fan on the separate AC unit though. I wonder how economical each is. I'll check it out and see.

    Dehumidifier/Evaporation Question

    Whoa, so it's just going to get worse? I probably should look for a more permanent solution then instead of constantly emptying this bucket. I just don't want this dehumidifier on all of the time. It's going to kill me in electrical costs.

    Dehumidifier/Evaporation Question

    Hello everyone. I just recently moved and now have my 75 gallon tank in a fully finished garage with laminate floors and an AC/heating unit. I feel like there's a total difference between the amount of humidity I am getting in the room now versus the room in my old house. I purchased an...

    FEEDBACK NEEDED: Sump Design

    Hello everyone! I'll be building my sump next week and wanted to know what you guys thought of my design. I'd definitely like some feedback as this is a total outside-the-box thing for me to do myself. I want to make sure it's done well, and done right. Here are a few tidbits that you need to...

    KILLER HERMIT CRABS ON BOTTOM FEEDERS!?!?!

    I'm religious with my water changes and will be adding a sump next week to make my tank even better. I'm at a 0 for ammonia and nitrite, about 10ppm for Nitrate and very low on phosphates, but they exist because of some of the small spikes of brown algae I've been getting. I pay such close...

    KILLER HERMIT CRABS ON BOTTOM FEEDERS!?!?!

    I'm really starting to get frustrated. I was having some minor brown algae issues so I wanted to get something to keep my tank nice and clean. I first purchased a bi-color Blenny and after a few days, I saw my hermit crabs having a feast on him. Just this week, I added a Diamond Watchman Goby...

    Banging My Head Against The Wall

    Thanks for the reply, Spongeycrab. That was by far the best video I've seen on the topic. Thank you for passing it along. I currently have Kich-Ich, which I could treat my display tank with. However, I'm not too fond of the idea of taking the carbon out of my filter and turning my skimmer off...

    Banging My Head Against The Wall

    Fellow fish nerds, I need some help. Just lost two fish in two days and need to know how to move forward. Here's my current situation: TANK A few months ago, I upgraded to a 75G. I was running a 20G long for about a year with no issues. Moved livestock over from 20G (Pair of clowns, fire fish...

    Adding New Fish To Tank Upgrade And Other Questions

    Thanks for the reply, Ted. I have had such a better go-around this time by being religious with my water changes and putting in the appropriately sized fish for my tank. With that being said, having such a large tank now, I just can't wait to get it stocked but I know I need to take it slow. I...

    Adding New Fish To Tank Upgrade And Other Questions

    I'm SOOOO happy with my tank upgrade. After two months of searching, I found the perfect 75g tank on Craigslist. I went to the store and tallied it up, I walked away with more than $800 of stuff for only $175. Everything was less than a year old, too. I also purchased a HOB protein skimmer...

    Upgrading my tank, need your help.

    Ok, so I found a 75 gallon set up with a great LED light and beautiful stand. I'm going to probably pick it up on Thursday. If I over filtrate with HOB filters, can I just get away with using a protein skimmer in the meantime before I set up a sump? I'm figuring I'll need to spend somewhere in...

    Upgrading my tank, need your help.

    Hello everyone! I've currently had my 20G long tank for about 10 months and things have been great! I've really gotten everything under control and managing my tank isn't a hassle at all. I definitely want to upgrade my tank to at least a 55 gallon but don't want to get too out of control with...

    OH CRAP! New anemone stuck in filter.

    I've had a very sturdy tank for the past eight months so I purchased my first anemone yesterday for my pair of clown fish. I drip acclimated him on top of a rock in the bucket and then placed him into the tank and went to bed. This morning when I work up, he's STUCK TO THE FILTER! I immediately...

    Diatom Bloom or Something Else?

    Thanks for the help everyone. I added another powerhead a few weeks ago and it has helped tremendously. I've also cut down on how much I keep the overhead light on as well. You guys are great.

    Diatom Bloom or Something Else?

    I just got back into town after being away for almost two weeks. I had someone taking care of my fish and gave them detailed instructions to make sure they weren't overfed. Anyways, this is what I came back to.... I've had this tank set up for five months and have been doing water changes...

    Two Spot Goby Won't Eat

    I bought at two spot goby from the LFS last week and this guy isn't eating, at least from what I can see. The tank is very peaceful so I don't think it's stress related. I've tried flake food, pellet food, frozen cubes and even live brine shrimp the past two days and I don't see him eating...

    Chad OchoCinco's INSANE Aquarium

    Chad Ochocinco posted a video on his Instagram today talking about his lazy lion fish. Then... he showed the rest of his aquarium. I instantly started drooling at this thing. You could swim in it! Whenever I get to the point of a custom tank build, I'm putting a TV in it! Check it out...

    Adding a few Jamaican beach items to my tank

    Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I just returned home from my sisters wedding in Jamaica and thankfully my tank was still in tact. While I was there, I went snorkeling a few times and wish I could have brought some of these fish home with me, even though it's practically...
