    Do you GAC??

    So who uses GAC on a regular basis? If you do - how/why. If you don't why not? What have you noticed? My reason for asking: 1. I have always just tossed some GAC in media bags, and thrown them in my sump next to the return pump. Don't know if it did anything - but hey, it was cheap, and...

    Fragging a leather in the DT

    So, I have this huge @$$ devil's hand that is now almost the size of a basket ball (below). I've been thinking of thinning it out because it is now growing exponentially.

    Free: Kenya Tree

    So in my last tank I needed a piece of rubble rock to prop up a shelf. It started growing a Kenya tree. I don't like Kenya Trees, and no longer need the rock as a kickstand. Anyone want it?
