I tore down my salt water tank and plan to set up again some day. I have a friend that has his all computer controlled and for running a salt water I have to believe that is the way to go

I had a reef tank up until a year ago. I took it down because it was way too much money to keep it going. My electric bill dropped about 30-40 bucks a month. Not to mention the money I threw into the tank for test kits and supplements. Now I sit back and watch everyone else spend crazy money on their tanks.

I have a 55 gallon tank at home with whatever we feel like adding. We have some "feeder" goldfish that are small carp now. We have a rainbow shark, one of those big black algae eating fish and our newest addition, a crawdad! (my son caught him in the creek which is soooo cool to his old man here!)

I feed them. I clean the tank whenever it strikes me. Other than that, I allow the cycle of life to occur right in the living room! I remove the victims and replace them from time to time.

For all my working life I was in the pet business. I worked for a wholesaler first, and then had my own stores. I owned a tropical fish (both fresh and marine) and aquarium store in Atlanta, Ga for over 20 years. If I can help let me know.

i have a 10-gallon in the bedroom, with two feeder "comets" in it. my wife wanted them in it, as she likes them. i have a 135-gallon in the dining room. it has a clown knife, a jaguar, a tiger oscar, a bichir, and a pleco. i sold it to a friend at work, as soon as he pays me off, it is coming down and getting transferred to his house. i used to work in a petshop. we had fish (freshwater and saltwater), reptiles, spiders, scorpions, and such. i used to have snakes too, but my wife is scared of them, so i sold them. i had a florida kingsnake, a texas rat snake, a ball python, and a burmese python.
