And as an added plus we don't drown that way. LOL
-
Yeah. The more water, the more stable params.
-
Ditto on the background. The wood grain looks really nice.

So are angels pretty easy to breed?
How do you tell the males from the fems?
-
heh They look like spiders.
-
I suppose biofilm could in theory collect there as well.
-
So, if there's plants in the tank that essentially do the same thing, why run it through a plant "filter" up above at all?
-
Many prefer to keep them between 68 and 72 to minimize bacterial infections. I have heard of a few people keeping them at 78F, but you have more risk that way.

I've been doing a journal for personal stuff. LOL

Hey! You made it! Welcome over here.

Others will have to answer that one, as I don't use it.
However if your TDS does rise, it is likely to have inorganic ingredients leeching out. Here's a neat little link for ya: http://www.thegreenmachineonline.com/articles/news/adas-substrate-article-characteristics-substrate-materials-unperceivable-just-their-ap

Coolish.
-
Looks pretty good. Salty will drop your TDS some so you'll be in a better range for "playroom." So, I'd say fine for now.
-
So whats the diff between a blog and a journal?

Yepper. I'll have them, GreenBliss. They breed pretty well for me and I have to admit that I really like them too. The black lines are pretty cool against the silver or golden backgrounds. They do great in small tanks as well as big tanks, which is a huge plus in my book anytime!
I'm pretty sure I'll still have the lower grade carbons for sale as well. Some could even look close to a Nadal Blue RIli with some work. (blue pigment on head/tail with blue tissue midsection) I just have too many other projects to pursue that one, so the pigment is random unless someone breeds for it.

Creative recycling.
-
Sounds like a plan to me. Just switch them over when you have the new product.
-
LOL Some say that is a waste. I say it's security.
-
Well, let's look at it this way. Fluval is what you have on hand.
Can't use what you don't have...
-
Ferts and shrimp usually don't mix. Many more horror stories than good outcomes, but more power to ya in whatever you decide to do.
Since I don't to ferts, my only guess would be yes it would raise TDS.
-
As long as your ph and TDS are in the ballpark, they won't die from kh/gh water in just a couple days. It takes time to affect them and usually affects molting.
BTW, the http://www.theshrimptank.com/water-conditioners/saltyshrimp-shrimp-mineral-gh-kh/ product looks good. I haven't had a chance to try it yet though.

And when Bryce comes in I know I can tag out
LOL We can use all the points of view we can get, my friend.
"I wish you could just press a button and have your water programmed ideally."
And short of having thousands of dollars of equipment, we have to do it by hand. UGH! heh

BTW here is where I get mine from: http://www.alphaprobreeders.com/bee-shrimp-mineral-gh-1-000-grams/
