  1. LFS: Fish2morow, Fort Worth, Texas

    On November 5, 2011, Fish2morow had its Customer Appreciation Day with some amazing specials. Upon my arrival at 10am, there was already quite a group forming at the front door. You had to get a ticket to get in, but I was allowed in immediately with my press pass: a Nikon D90. The reasoning for the tickets was to avoid overcrowding the store; each customer was given direct attention as a salesman became available.

  2. RBTA thriving, GBTA not so much..

    My RBTA's are thriving in my tank, very large and has split once and now i have 2 large RBTA, both are doing great. My GBTA on the other hand has been in the tank longer but will not grow or thrive like the red ones. I figure if it is not happy with its current tank location it will move to a better spot on its own. The green is lower in the tank and in a lower flow area, but wouldnt it move on its own if it wasnt happy in that spot?

    Any ideas or suggestions?

    Also, I just looked and couldn't seem to find the product on Brightwell's website even. Strange.

  5. T5 bulb question

    I was looking at upgrading to a metal halide/t5 combo that I had found that was within my immediate price range but have decided (since the fixture I was looking at has reports of it catching fire) to try look at the possibility that maybe my current combination of bulbs could be replaced with a more optimal brand/combination. As of right now I am using the coralife actinic and daylights 10,000 in a 50/50 combination. The daylight almost seems overpowering to me and looks almost yellow which I wasn't ...
