I checked out your 2916 journal thread. Did you get long fin lemons as you hoped?

I love my little Lemon BN plecos. I wish I had more. Anyone here had theirs breed?

I have 4 Blue Eye Lemon BN Plecos in a 45 gallon tank with Gary LangeI Rainbows. They are a great-looking small pleco and love to dine on the algae. I’m very happy with them and strongly recommend them. I also feed them HikarI algae wavers as a supplemental food and they love them.

I use them for my Angels. They love them. Aren’t they a little expensive for guppies?

I have been feeding a high quality flake food to my Guppies. However, I have read that there is less waste created in the tank if pellets are fed instead. For those of you feeding pellets, what name/brand are you using? Where do you find the best place to buy them? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the info.

I know I need to remove the others but I don’t have another large tank available at present. I haven’t posted enough yet to be able to iniate a new thread. The Picking has just started. Thanks for the information.

I just saw some eggs on the glass yesterday from my Koi Angels. They were gone this morning. I just ordered a ceramic breeding cone from Amazon. I’m new to Angels. Once new eggs are laid on the cone, do I need to do something to protect them? I have 6 Angels in a 53 gallon tank with a few...

Thanks. Do you put it in the HOB filter along with charcoal?

I haven’t used floss as a filter before. What type do you use? Is it the same as sold in a fabric store?

Here is a photo of my 20 gallon aquarium that is still cycling. My filter is a Matten filter. On the right side of the foam, tubing is connected to an air filter pump. The water is being pulled through the foam filter and then being discharged back into the tank over the top of the sponge...

You may not be interested in doing this, but there is another possibility. I use Matten sponge filters in my dwarf shrimp tanks. These sponge filters can also be used as dividers in an aquarium. They fit snugly and can be easily cut if you wish to make modifications. All you have to do is buy 2”...

My RO water TDS is 0. In the tank the TDS is much higher. I believe part of the problem is I followed directions for the Shrimp Minerals and I put in too much. Looks like another water change with no Shrimp Minerals added.

I bought an RO system specifically for a CRS. I cannot get the TDS low enough. I have only RO water. I have done 50% water changes, changed charcoal filters and recently added Frogbit, Bio-max ceramic filers, and replaced the small HOB filter charcoal with Zeolite. In addition, I installed a...

Based on your recommendations, I just order 2 boxes of Fluval Bio-Max rings. So, do you get a commission from Amazon?
