SRC Member fnscasey Posted January 15, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted January 15, 2004 1. Vinegar is good for soaking pump/power-head impellers--it dissolves the CaCO3 that tends to build up on the internals. 2. The life of wooden air diffusers can be extended by heating them up in the microwave for 3-5 minutes. So when its time to change the diffuser,, pop it in the microwave and you'll be able to use it again. 3. Have clams for dinner. Wash shells, and use them to cover annoying algae patches on you rock...after a week or two the algae will be dead and gone for lack of light.

SRC Member Tanzy Posted January 15, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted January 15, 2004 3. Algae on rock dies and new nuisance algae grows on clam shell. Remove clam shell with algae and nuisance algae grows on previously covered rock. Quote Warning: Heavy handed moderator in operation.

Achilles Tang Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 Tip 3 will only work if you do something good to your water to prevent algae from growing back on the rock. Theoretically, it works. Or get enough snails or hermits to do short work of the new growth.. once it get too much... they will leave it alone.
