    I'm an alcoholic and I just can't stop.

    I've been consuming vodka for the last 2 years now. I've never really considered it a problem, just a few milliliters here, a few there. I've never considered myself to have a problem as I at most only consumed 8 milliliters a day. Through the months, I'd have random spats with Cyano, of which...

    Time to join the WP40 club

    As I am still waiting for my pair of wp40's from the group buy, I figured with all the good news, why not just buy an extra one now at regular price so that I'll always have a spare. Got it in today and put it in. So far so good. Running it on H1 and I see a minor internal wave. Not too bad...

    can 2 male wrasses of the same species co-exist?

    I had 1 large female flame wrasse for many months in my tank, she was a nice big pink wrasse. no yellow at all in her. I decided 2 weeks ago to give her a buddy, so I purchased a male and added him to the tank. She went on to bully him non stop (she never bullies any fishes). The bullying kept...
