Re: Baseline for Drop Checker

Re: 10 Gallon
The nitrate test that came with my API master test kit is very hard to read. On the reference card the colors for 20, 30, and 40 ppm is practically the same.

I've seen some Corys that get pretty large...are there any Cory species that ARE NOT one of the dwarf species but still stay on the smaller side of the spectrum?

Re: Community options
Are there species of pencils that stay small? All the ones I've seen have the potential to grow larger than I'm interested in.

Re: Okay to eat moss?
I would never give it to the dog but there's been a few times where I've forgotten to empty out the tub I drop my clippings into. I'd say he's eaten it at least 3 or 4 times and he's only interested...
