			<description><![CDATA[I need to get a new home sorted for a single fish that's been bullied by his tankmate. At the moment he's recovering in a in an emergency 6x3 inch tub which seems OK temporarily, he's never been very active, particularly not at the moment though. I'm worried about the water quality - I'm changing it regularly with water from the main aquarium  but he's going to need something with a filter long-term. I have an old spare tank but it's huge for just one little fish, and I don't really have anywhere suitable to place it at the moment.

Also, how sensitive are they to temperature? The room he's in is warm and he's quite close to the heater so I don't know whether he'll need a heated tank.]]></description>

			<title>DIY Filter out of pvc</title>
			<link>http://www.aquariumforum.com/f37/diy-filter-out-pvc-5501.html</link>
			<pubDate>Mon, 08 Feb 2010 09:35:11 GMT</pubDate>
			<description><![CDATA[This is a cross between to much time on my hands and a lot of stuff laying around. I have always said I wanted to do a whole tank using all DIY for all parts of the tank. So here is the my DIY filter. I had some 4" pvc left over from another project. And some caps and clean out drains 

<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4059&amp;ppuser=976" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4059&amp;size=1 </a>
This is not the cap I am using I used this one to test hole sizes but I wanted to show the type of cap.
<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4058" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4058&amp;size=1 </a>

The tube is 18"tall and here are some of the other pieces I'll be using as I go along.

<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4057&amp;ppuser=976" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4057&amp;size=1 </a>

<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4068" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4068&amp;size=1 </a>

I had some egg Crate left over from covering my last tank so I cut some circles out of it 

<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4061&amp;ppuser=976" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4061&amp;size=1 </a>

Then I glued a piece of 4" pvc(1/2) to hold the egg crate in the bottom of the  tube. This is up side down, but I just wanted to show this part together.

 <a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4062&amp;ppuser=976" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4062&amp;size=1 </a>
This is it right size up

<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4060&amp;ppuser=976" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4060&amp;size=1 </a>
O.K. know I'm going to add the drain hole in the lower part of the tube. Since I like the way a phos-ban reactor works. I took the same idea and I'm going to have the water come in from the bottom and push it's way up through the media. I drilled a 3/4" hole
<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4067&amp;ppuser=976" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4067&amp;size=1 </a>

Then added the drain

<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4071" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4071&amp;size=1 </a>

On the inside I screwed the water proof cap on but since it's not made for a round surface I'm going to silicone it all in
<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4070" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4070&amp;size=1 </a>
I'm going to leave this part for a bit to let it cure. So now I'm going to water proof the bottom using thread tape and silicone
<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4072" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4072&amp;size=1 </a>
This is it altogether and water tight
<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4078" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4078&amp;size=1 </a>
And then glued the bottom to the tube
<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4077" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4077&amp;size=1 </a>
Now on to the top I used a maxi-jet 1200 after I drilled a 3/4" hole in the top and added the drain. To make the maxi-jet fit the drain I used a piece of hose that was 5/8 od and 1/2 id and it fits just right. Then I drilled a 3/16 hole for the power cord. I lined to inside of the hole with a rubber washer. Then I cut off the plug in of the cord and pushed it through the hole.
<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4065&amp;ppuser=976" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4065&amp;size=1 </a>
This is what it looks like from the top
<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4064&amp;ppuser=976" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4064&amp;size=1 </a>
Then siliconed it all in. I'm going to put this a side to cure.  Now I'm going to lay out the drain. This was the best way to use some more stuff I had laying around. I used a piece of hose that had a id of a 1/2" so I could tie in some 1/2" cpvc. I also added a ball valve to help control water flow.
<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4086" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4086&amp;size=1 </a>
I'm going to run this from the tank to the floor so I had to use almost 4' of 1/2" cpvc
<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4084" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4084&amp;size=1 </a>
This is it running from the tank down.
<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4087" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4087&amp;size=1 </a>
This is what you will see from inside the tank it's the smallest pipe in the back. And I'm going to tie the return into the return you already see in front, but I'll get to that later.
<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4088" target="_blank">Image: http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4088&amp;size=1 </a>]]></description>

I'm going to run this from the tank to the floor so I had to use almost 4' of 1/2&quot; cpvc<br />
<a href="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=4084" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.aquariumforum.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=4084&amp;size=1" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />
This is it running from the tank down.<br />

This is what you will see from inside the tank it's the smallest pipe in the back. And I'm going to tie the return into the return you already see in front, but I'll get to that later.<br />

			<description><![CDATA[I've recently shut down my 20gal and moved my betta into my 50 gal. However with the flow of the filter he usually floats to the top.  I think if he went down to the plants he would be okay but since my plants are only half the height of the tank he is usually just floating at the top.  He has been in there for a couple weeks now.  Should I be concerned and try to make a new home for him.  Anyone else have them in community tanks what is their behavior like?]]></description>

			<title>Super Bowl Super Sale (2nd Annual)</title>
			<link>http://www.aquariumforum.com/f80/super-bowl-super-sale-2nd-annual-5497.html</link>
			<pubDate>Sun, 07 Feb 2010 22:28:48 GMT</pubDate>
			<description><![CDATA[So here is how it works. Just like last year, this contest will be highly confusing, and I will be watching the game so I won't be available to answer questions. The good news is I will sort out any mistakes, and you can always cancel an order.

During the Game Special -

If you order during the game you get 30% off our livestock. No rock. Everything in stock included, use the code "duringthegame". When the game clock runs out, the code will expire.

After Game Special - Now here is where some strategy comes in. Depending on how the outcome looks, it might be worth buying after the game rather than during based on your order -

The Spread - I pick the Colts to win by 10. If the win by exactly 10, there is no after game special. :(

If the Colts win tonight by 11 or more, the discount is 25% off, use the code "colts" in the discount coupon code box after the game ends. You will also get 2 for 1 Dwarf Ceriths and 3 blue legs for every two you buy when you leave the note "Superbowl Special" (or something similar) in the comments field, after using the code "colts" in the separate discount code box.

If the Saints win, or lose by 9 or less than the discount would be 25% off and 2 for 1 mangroves and nassarius snails. The code would be "saints".

The winning team discount will run until Tuesday at noon. 


RESTRICTIONS: (You knew it was coming)

Only livestock is included, rock isn't livestock
No retroactive sales
During Game Special is only good for orders fully processed by the end of the game
Cannot be combined with any other specials, or gift coupons, (we don't sell gift certificates so they are all gratis), etc...
We will be updating the site with stock throughout the week. While we can't do rainchecks, if something becomes available before your order ships, we will honor the discount made when your purchased the original order. Many macros are out of stock because of the season, don't get your hopes up on those.]]></description>

			<description>Hi there, I am new to this forum.
I am fond of saltwater fish and I am from Mauritius.
I have set up a small station for fish collection/export. I do not wish to grow big in size, collecting big volumes for huge profit, i only enjoy this hobby and i feel working at sea, diving and managing small shipments without huge stress and hassles is simply great *w3.
I welcome hobbyists and other collectors ( not opportunists ) to share ideas and experiences.

			<description><![CDATA[*Ladies and Gentlemen,*
*On behalf of Sunset Promotional Services, Inc. and staff, we are proud to introduce to you our latest creation for the aquatics hobby and supportive industries: *
*&#8220;THE AQUARIUM & POND EXPO&#8221; (APEX) *
*APEX will debut August 7th & 8th, 2010*

*Image: http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii46/reefmeister2/apexlogocreation-1.png *
 
*<a href="http://www.aquariumpondexpo.com" target="_blank">APEX homepage</a>*
 
*APEX is an ALL-AQUATICS marketplace that is all-inclusive of Saltwater, Freshwater, Outdoor Pond, Planted-tank, and every other unique facet of the aquatics hobby. *
*The APEX venue is one giant marketplace where attendees may see and purchase various product, equipment, and livestock from retailers in the industry. *
*Also present will be various supportive manufacturers who wish to display the latest innovative equipment and hardware.*
*APEX is open-to-the-public and fully encourages entire families to participate and visit. *
 
*The main goals of APEX are as follows: *
*1) Host the LARGEST VENUE for retail commerce in the aquatics industry!*
*2) INTRIGUE and INSPIRE those who ponder nature&#8217;s aquatic environment!*
*3) Facilitate the ATTRACTION of NEW ENTRANTS into the aquatics hobby! *

*All Four shows are operated independently but in conjunction with each other to bring you one giant animal exposition the same weekend, in the same location, and at the same time! *
*You will be given the opportunity to visit our closely-related cousins in the world of aquatics, reptiles, aviary, and perhaps acquire a new hobby in the process. We cordially invite you to learn more about APEX and perhaps include us as part of your family entertainment for summer 2010!*
