I keep a lot of freshwater tanks, they are all planted, they have drift wood, and I use sponge filters. My 2 oldest 10 gallon tanks are so...

    Hi!

    Hi, I am just at the beginning here trying to figure out the best set up that will allow me to be gone for at least 10 days and maybe save my reef and fish from dying as a result of my future mistakes. I read that the bigger the tank the easier to keep it stable so I decided to get CADE...
