    Cool!! Handmade one. Do you have a picture to show?
     
    Those China-made and Taiwan-made are really crap. Maybe I can buy from you next time.

    Han sells stainless steel intake covers that are 100% shrimplet safe. He uses a mesh that is very fine and is safe for the smallest new born shrimps. My shrimp from newborns to adults constantly graze on the intake with no problems. Sponges clog and require way too much maintenance.

    RyeGuy411 got a reaction from Steve R. in cycling ada soil, have you heard of doing this?   
    " the rate at which the effectiveness of nitrification dropped in acidic pH values: to less than 50% optimal efficiency at pH 7.0, to just under 30% at pH 6.5, and to just over 10% of maximal efficiency at pH 6.0. At these low pH values, nitrifying bacteria don't die, they just stop metabolizing and reproducing."

    "It is also noteworthy that the primary nitrifying bacteria are affected by pH.
    Nitrification involving AOB & NOB bacteria is different at pH levels of above 7.0 versus below 6.0."

    CO2 is the only way I know of to lower pH and not kh.

    Fluval peat will lower KH and pH.

    We are looking at around a dozen attendees. That number could be much higher if some folks from the ACA convention (being held in Springfield) head over afterwards.

    RyeGuy411 got a reaction from ElevateShrimp in cycling ada soil, have you heard of doing this?   
    I would think putting it in a bucket and soaking with very hard water and changing daily for a week would accomplish the same thing without breaking down the soil and wasting as much water.

    RyeGuy411 got a reaction from EricM in 2 substrates   
    I also have a HMF in my 20L so im losing about 6 inches of floor space for the filter compartment. But that gave me a thick substrate layer.

    You dont need 40 lbs of Controsoil for a 20g. But on the plus side you have substrate for another tank! I use about half to just over half a bag for a 10 and just under a bag for a 20L. That gives you a substrate depth of about 4-8cm.

    Looks like some kind of egg pod or chrysalis. Did it come in on something you added from outside or it just showed up on its own?
