Well last night i noticed my UV took a vacation for good. Had a compact top of the line as they say one from the 140 so this time I bought, should be here in a few days a 55 watt 36 inch bulb one...I was going crazy why i was beginning to get too much algae and now I have my answer. I had a so called top of the line one and now I am going with lifegard one their new design. also looking into maybe more wave makers or sea swirls...

Poll: how many of you put egg crate at the bottom of your tank before adding sand and scape? I've gone back and forth with this in my mind. Would love to hear some people reasons for or reasons they didn't. Ready. Set. Go.
No. Prohibits effective sand sifting by snails etc.

I bend egg crate and make racks that sit just above the sand bed but I prefer the "kitty litter" look (as @danieyella described it).

Both of those links require a minimum purchase of 10
they're $~13/ea at the store. I get them individually all day long. They don't ship well individually I imagine is why they only link bulk on the page.

If I had thought about it I would have silicone one down in the frag tank...

I ran egg crate for years in my cichlid tanks... whenever I'd breakdown a tank there was always so much crąp in the egg crate I ended up not wanting it for my SW.

Did he get a free amazeballs on accident?
Several names for it, but 100% not an amzeball.

care bears, majin buu, flame tip, pepto bismol was once used but, I am sure that was flavorless and not popular at all.

There are several other names, but we're talking 200 per half inch at that point.
