To cycle the tank faster, when starting a new aquarium,you can add a small piece raw shrimp, let it decompose then it will add nitrites. | |

Always have way more room in your sump/fuge than you think will be necessary for a power outage. Without the return, your fuge/sump will recieve water from just about everywhere: overflow, pipes, pump etc... if it doesn't seem like you would have a problem, test it out to make sure ( have a bucket or garbage can near by). It is better to test than to lose gallons of water to your floor.

When leaving for a vacation, make arrangements for a friend to feed your fish. Your fish will not survive your vacation regardless, but you'll feel better about it and you will have someone to blame. | |
