    They don't particularly care if it's sandy or not.
  2. If you can't find anything saying they're allowed, then they're not.

    Plywood tank

    Warrens was steel framed, no plywood.
  4. And make sure you set it up with a sump and buy my skimmer. In fact, I still have my tank with sump too, probably have to build a new stand for it though. I really need quit procrastinating and get rid of this stuff...
  5. I don't think anything gets easier than mealworms. Bag of oat bran, add mealworms, wait.
  6. No, they must be domesticated hand reared maggots...
  7. Allow me to introduce you to google. It can be found at http://www.google.com
  8. Do you have a sump? I have a Turboflotor T1000 I'm looking to get rid of now that I don't have a tank.

    Plywood tank

    Really depends on how good of a job you do on the wood. Of course, using something other than plywood would help heaps.
  10. I've had one similar, only difference I can see is my one had a black plastic bit on the back instead of white. It'll be a lot noisier than your current ones, or at least noisier than when they were new because they get louder when the bellows need replaced. Other than that, for $35 you really can't go wrong.
  11. I'd think you'd want a lot more than 600LPH if you're wanting to replicate a river?

    Useful Fish...

    Just about all plant eating fish. Severums love it.
  13. That's because turds don't school with discus.
  14. You can also try a garden center.
  15. There's very little UV in an aquarium, unless you have a massively faulty UV filter.
  16. Just give it a coat with polyurethane or similar, should be all you'll need. Oh and... Most plastic model kits are made of polystyrene, same plastic as standard expanded polystyrene foam. It's just...Expanded. I think most model kits are died anyway, probably most model ships of the type you'd want would already be gray. Which would probably look good once you assemble it and maybe do some weathering on it.
  17. I've always wondered how well it would work wrapping up a camera in something like plastic shrinkwrap to water proof it. Of course, wouldn't try it with a valuable camera...
  18. By using proper punctuation. Or not including the stuff after the picture's filename and extension.
  19. Ok, no way I'd want a lop ear then, I already have three cats.
  20. Cute. I've never actually had a pet rabbit, I think I'd probably go with something like a flemish giant.
