I guess I do too. Whenever I see a snail that's overturned on the sandbed, I pick it up and place it on some rock. Prevents a lot of untimely deaths.

Re: fast cycle.

If the rock is cured before it goes into your tank, there will be little to no cycle.

Re: Why is that City of Calgary water report so hard to find

All you should have to do to get rid of CO2 from your tap or RO is aerate it in a bucket for a day or two. It's just a gas. It'll be replaced or balanced by O2 during aeration. No biggie.

Comets are commonly sold as feeder fish, and are small and extremely cheap to buy. They're the ones that get the biggest, along with shubunkin which are more colourful but are still flat-bodied. ...

Re: Tank price and weight

Goldfish grow to be a foot long and can live for 10+ years if properly cared for. I don't think a 36" long tank will do the job for them, especially if there are more than three of them. A much...
