    RO systems and set-up

    I have a RO question: my tap water here in NYC is quite soft, relative to tap water found elsewhere around the country. I am curious if softer water, when run through a RO unit, would produce less waste water than water with more hardness. Dave

    Colony display tank

    I would really enjoy some input from the forum on a big project I'm planning. I have bought a 92 gal. corner aquarium - shaped like a quarter cylinder 3' radius and 2' height. I am going to furnish with driftwood and nice plants, Espe's pencil fish and zebra otos. I want to select an...

    'tudes

    Papagei David, I'm thrilled you brought up A. sp. Papagei. I desperately want to get some. I would love it if you could comment a bit more about their 'psychopathic' behavior, as well as your recommendations for the appropriate quarters for several individuals, as well as male/female ratio...

    'tudes

    I just got 6 wild caught bitaeniata and they have a nasty disposition. I put them in a 55, and after they got used to my water (15-20 mins) they all started going ape jockeying for territories amongst the maze of driftwood, ceramic caves, and lava rocks. I have had many captive bred apistos...

    Amazon Conservation

    A disagreement I had with a furniture salesman led me to do research about mahogany harvesting. He told me some vague crap about Thomasville "replants trees" after I voiced my objection to mahogany furniture. I was disappointed I didn't know the facts neccesary to administer the undressing the...

    buying apistos

    collecting I would love to go collecting! I think about it all the time. Finding a good time to get away would be very difficult or me. Also, I got really upset when they started not allowing passengers to carry on any liquids on airplanes. I had daydreams of some idiot airport security...

    Looking for Apisto Elizabethae

    wholesaler visit Yes, it was Tony Orso. Very nice man. Before NJAS went to visit his fishroom, I too, tried to contact him and asked him if he would entertain retail walk-in customers. He told me no, he doesn't allow walk-in retail customers. He sells fish to lots of LFS's. His fish were...

    Pair of Apistogramma agassizi - ?'s

    Kh The confusion is that the test kit Linda is reading measures KH in ppm, not German degrees. I have an equivalent test kit. It is annoying to me that the color scale doesn't provide readings in Greman degrees (I believe most of the best selling KH/GH kits sold in the bix box pet store...
