    I've been having issues with temp since tank is on my computer desk and by a lot of electronics. I went by frys today and made this. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1370203418.198414.jpg
    It's 3 60x60x15mm 3800rpm pc fans running off a dc to molex adapter. Temp has dropped 2 degrees in 5 min already.

      • How can I test ph below 6.0?

        • Different test kits. API is the basic line and gives a decent reading. ELOS makes some really badarse test kits, but can get pricey as they have a kit per test (ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, ph, gh, kh, etc.) instead of an all in one kind of thing. They are extremely accurate though. I believe they have a test kit for almost everything you can test in the water.

          • I've been leaving the tank alone for the most part (top off water every few days as it loses 20% in 3 days, water changes every 3 weeks) and I have berried shrimp now. I think I was over maintaining the tank.

              • Not sure what this green algae/moss is and where it came from. Should I be worried?

                • Not sure what that is, I've seen that in my tanks before, they're easy to remove and amanos like munching on them.
