| Re: !!!20g For Reals!!!! Mario - we have pretty hard water here so let the first few gallons run through. Test it again after 5 or even 10 gallons.

| Re: !!!20g For Reals!!!! Very nice start! My first tank was a 20 gallon from about 15 years ago and I still have it. It will soon become my quarantine tank. I bet your parents are going to love that muck in the sink. My wife caught a whiff of my skimmer cup the other day before I flushed.  Good luck with the tank. |

| Re: !!!20g For Reals!!!! IT is a setup for only about 2 to 4 fish the maximum. Im going to be getting chemi-pure!, I highly recomend it for those of you with canisters. I made a small mod on my powerfilter for this. Aquarium Chemical Filtration Media: Chemi-Pure Chemical Filter Media anyway, here is my baby!  shouldnt my amonia and nitrites be getting a little higher now?
