What Plastic cement/glue to use?
Depends on what the plastic is you are trying to glue. if it is perspex then you should be fine with weld-on 16. If you are unsure you should use weld-on 40. this is a 2part epoxy, it will stick most plastics, pvc, acrylic etc.

yellow head sleeper gobies
most sleeper gobys dig in the sand, this would cause them to stir up a bit of crap.. how much would depend on how dirty the sand is and how many gobys you put in. Make sure you get small ones, big ones can starve to death quite easily.

not sure if you got what i meant. meaning, are you guys that concerned about adding the ca and kh in a balanced ratio 20.0 ppm Ca++ to 1 meq/L KH. or is more, just keep it as close as possible and not worrying to much as long as your test are within a good range? Chim, you ca reactor pumps out about 20.0 ppm Ca++ to 1 meq/L KH, but you were saying you had to add extra Kh was it? so this would then be unbalanced? are you worried about that

like??? when i use the word balanced, i assume it means Balanced = the amount used by corals in calcification, so you then put this amount into your tank. So a balanced level would be KH9.6 CA 429. This is what I aim for. But then your calcium drops, so you add more ca, does that then become unbalanced. Same with a reactor, you dissolve the caco chips and it releases ca and kh in a balanced ratio?? So then why can some of us not get the ca and kh to be maintained at the correct level, say kh9.6 ca 429????? What else uses these chemicals, bacteria.........- Oyster

yes i do have extra and this is what i do. I make it up myself and it is perfect sure it could be a bit unbalanced. reactors can do the same to. number of corals, livestock, mg levels etc is this what you mean?- aqua medic calcium reactor 400
2 part. yip thats what i do. so i spose the question is, if you can maintain you kh level at a constant level say 9.6 for me. Then how can you adjust your dosing to get the ca up in a balanced fashion. I would say no, because as said prior, every tanks is diff, each needs diff levels of ca or kh. Would be the same for reactors or 2 part would it not- aqua medic calcium reactor 400
can't really adjust any more. if i add more then the kh keeps going up. Would rather have a constant level of kh- aqua medic calcium reactor 400
agree. with dosing in my tank, i can keep a constant level of kh 9.6 day in day out. can't keep the calcium out though, each week it drops by 5-10. I also no some people with reactors have the same problem- Worming your fish
Would the cat ones be ok? They have Praziquantel 20mg, Pyrantel Embonate230mg The only difference would be a higher mg per tab and they also have Febantel ? - aqua medic calcium reactor 400
