So now u do have a 29 lol.Dom90 said:Haha ok. So remember the neighbor with the tank? He practically gave it to me for free, steal deal of $10 lol. Says he has no use for it apparently.
You got another new tank?Dom90 said:Haha ok. So remember the neighbor with the tank? He practically gave it to me for free, steal deal of $10 lol. Says he has no use for it apparently.
Haha no, same tank as in my MTS bragging thread. Except its officially mine now. In that photo, long story short, I was borrowing my neighbor's tank for the pic, to show what my project end would look like. Now he sold me that tank... I know very weird.AquaticBrandon said:You got another new tank?
Military intelligence... such an oxymoron! ... I kid, I kidGeoff said:Hahaha math was never my strong suit.
That is to be determined which species I end up going with. It's either going to be Saulosi, Demasoni, Cynotilapia Afra, Pundamilia NyerereI (Hap), or some other dwarf cichlid.AquaticBrandon said:Nice! How many cichlids are you going to buy?
Here you get free shipping on order over $40Dom90 said:Hey that's not too bad! Where can I get them? Dont tell me Aquabid lol.
borleyI get huge not even I can have them yet. They need groups 1male to 4-5 females or the male will bully to much the female and beat her up.Dom90 said:Not a bad site. Too bad I can't get the borleyi, they come as a mated pair already, or breeding pack lol.
Those get 5-6in to big for 40 gallon breeder.Dom90 said:Lol switching out tanks is out of the question then. I did see some sunshine peacocks at a LFS near my workplace though.
Yea $20 for two bags, I guess the guy had too much of it? Saw like 10 bags of it on the shelf.AquaticBrandon said:Wait, it was only $20 for 2 bags? That's cheap. I think I've seen them for $20 per bag
ok will stop looking for someone that has dwarfs then. glDom90 said:I found someone who can get me cichlids I think.
why so clouding did u not wash the sand?Dom90 said:Thanks... Here is the setup so far, I'm cycling two tanks at once now lol...
The sand in the top tank is still clearing out, just finished setting up the filter.
looks like it did need a rinseDom90 said:The bag said "No rinsing".
Takes a while Give it 3-5 before testing to see how is going.Dom90 said:Just want to make sure the Carib-Sea African cichlid sand is working and the pH is around 8.2 The sand has been there since last night. How long should I wait before I test the pH?
3-5 hours? days?LeoDiaz said:Takes a while Give it 3-5 before testing to see how is going.
