Or a less simple answer would be that NO fixtures on the market have true UV LEDs. The Mitras does have the diodes that people are referring to as UV though. :D Smart ass...yes I know. ;)

Tape a few small mirrors to the side of the tank facing into the tank. The Melanurus will be so mad at seeing "another Melanurus" in the tank he will probably forget about the Orange Back. ...

I haven't found any of the carbon dosing in a bottle stuff to work too well for lowering nutrients, biopellets are probably the best bet there. So if you have PO4 and NO4 handled with that then...

Honestly, I don't think the balling method can reduce waterchanges to any significant extent. I've used semi-balling (just cal, alk, mg) for a few years now mostly using Fauna Marin salts which I...

I have a rock covered in it. I have had it for over a year and there is no noticeable growth. It is recently much happier (more extended) than usual, so maybe I will see growth. I hear other...
