Good shrimp for a salt water nano tank?
Sarah H asked:
I have a friend to help me with the startup and maintenance aspects of a salt water tank, he’s got an amazing one in his home and I’m pretty well-versed in freshwater keeping.
My question is what are some really interesting shrimp (I don’t want any fish, it’s too small - 3 gallons) that are interesting and won’t kill each other.
I’m looking to have 2-3 shrimp, maybe some crabs or some snails.
I know nothing about salt water creatures so please suggest easier ones.

100 g fish tank water changes in winter?
Crazyblue asked:
over the summer I got a 100 gallon fish tank. I also have a home made python that made water changes out the door a breeze. However, now it’s winter here and I can no longer open the door. I wanted to know how I could make these water changes without leaving my door open. I thought of buying a 55 gallon drum but after thinking of the weight of water I thought against it.
Now I’m thinking of maybe going with a 10 to 15 gallon container and just making 3 trips a week with that.
Yes, my fish tank is overcrowded. I have African’s and the tank is overstocked slightly to keep down the aggression. Everything is fine as long as I find a way to keep up with the water changes…
I use to change it 25% a week or if I missed a week I’d do a 50% change the following week.
Yes my tank is fully cycled. I didn’t know I could break up the 25% and do say, 5 gallons every other day.

Why has my fish tank water turned so cloudy?
Heidi asked:
I just recently moved back home from living at school. When I moved, I took out half the water so it would be easier to transport. I have 5 guppies and 2 catfish cories. When I added water from my house, the next day the tank was so cloudy. It also kind of turned green. Why is this? Could it be from the water supply here at home? Thanks so much.

Keep running out of water at home?
sweetsistah asked:
We live in a mobile home and our water source comes from a well. The past week, our water has run out twice. This is a new problem and quite frankly, it’s getting very frustrating. We have to flush out the water tank every time this happens to get the water to come back. A water guy came and told us to shut the water pump off for an hour to fix it but that didn’t work. If anyone knows the source or reason why this may be happening, please let me know!

Is my hot water tank broke or is the breaker bad?
I Miss MJ & I’m Bad. asked:
I was away for a few days and when I came home there was no hot water. The breaker tripped so I reset it. It tripped again. I drained alot of brown sludge out of the tank and refilled it but the breaker keeps tripping. What do you think is wrong? I have no idea how old the tank is.

Why are water storage tanks made out of stainless steel yet the plumbing in the home is copper?
Sparrow asked:
If you are trying to buy a metal tank for storing potable water then it will almost alway be made out of stainless steel. However, when it comes to plumbing with metal you are normally going to see copper. As a side not it seems like breweries as well as whiskey, scotch and bourbon distilleries seem to prefer copper tanks and pipes while wineries, vodka and rum seem to choose tanks and pipes made from stainless steel. It appears to me that copper can do both jobs yet copper tanks are nowhere to be found when it comes to home use. Why is that?

Brackish Water tank is somewhat cloudy and smells bad?
Justin U asked:
I have a 2 week old brackish water tank with a violet goby and 2 ghost shrimp. I was away for theweekend but it was being cared for. Before I left the water was clear and did not smell. When I got back home last night, the water is cloudy and the water smells pretty bad. Also the filters have this like white stuff on them that kind of looks like encrusted salt but I’m not sure. Is this just the nitrogen cycle going through its process? Thanks
