    Hi I'm mike, I saw a comment on a post on here and reckognized the zip code to be local. I live in Saint Charles and recently upgraded my planted tank to a 4' 120g and setup pressurized co2 from leftover alcium reactor stuff from my reef tanks. I'm a newb to planted tanks besides java fern lol. If you have plants or any fish for sale I'd be interested in some mostly for some wisdom and pointers lol. Thanks in advance!

    Hi bsmith. How do you simulate rainy/flood season ? I have 8 L183s and cannot seem to get any action out of them. I keep them in Ro water (ph 5.6, tds 55 ppm at 80 F). 50 WC once a week. I have caves for them and feed them well. Any tips????

    I have not had time to to devote the water changes, feedings, processes necessary to get the 183's to breed like they had in years past. They are still very healthy and fat but it takes a good bit of water chemistry/parameter manipulation to get them to think its the rainy/flood season which is when they breed.

    The best place I have seen them is Tropical World Pets off of Watson in Crestwood. There is also a place calles Aqua World in Ellisville but they are hit and miss and the owner is grump most of the time.

    Hi, I'm in St. Louis and looking for Otocinclus Affinis (dwarf suckermouth catfish) - I'm having a lot of trouble finding them here. Any advice on shops that know what I'm talking about when I ask for them?

    There are hosebarbs that I purchased from Swagelok on the input and output of the needle valve.

    You just need to screw the regulator onto the tank. Easy as pie.

    Yepee!

    Two last thing though, bro.
    1--How do you connect the both ends of your Swagelok needle valve to the CO2 tubings? Are those piece part of the Swagelok?

    2--Can you please send me pictures that shows how the regulator part connected to the CO2 tank? I just need to understand the connection of CGA-320. You know, Sumoregulators are telling me things that I could not understand about Concoa connection to the CO2 tank.

    If it doesnt bother you, can you please email the pics to limhg@hotmail.com

    Thanks for your help bro.
