Check it out! http://www.youtube.com/user/shrimpshed/videos This link discusses the nitrogen cycle, and in this week's podcast, Rus referenced the part about low pH decreasing the efficiency of nitrifying bacteria: http://www.skepticalaquarist.com/nitrogen-cycle Brian in Idaho is thinking about using one of these to help reduce that pesky lipid/protein slick that can appear when you want minimal surface turbulence: http://www.cpraquatic.com/products/overflows.html (I want one for my 55 gallon) Thanks to all of our listeners and contributors!

Aquarimax Episode 99: Mycobacterium, Fish Room Shelves, And DIY Acrylic Backgrounds | Join Aquarimax hosts Rus and Kelly as they discuss comments and questions from Brian in Idaho, Ken Jones, Prince of Ponds, and Charlie and Candice in North Carolina. Here's a pic of the Acrylic background Charlie just painted: This is what he said about it: So I wanted to share a new idea with y'all. My girlfriend and I sort of stumbled upon this when I couldn't find spray paint. I'm sure this has been done before, but it's not mentioned very often, if at all. "Painting your own background with acrylics. IT'S FUN. You can paint with acrylics in your living room watching TV. If your not the artsy type you can go with a solid color or try mixing up a color of your choosing. The paint is easily scraped off with a credit card when semi-wet (if you mess up like I did). If you don't like it after it's totally dry you could use some vinegar and a bit of scraping to get it off (haven't experimented with this so I can't say for sure how easy it is). Acetone will take it off too but would be risky near the water column, heh. Couple tips: 1. If you have a large portable mirror this will help see through the front of the tank while painting. 2. If you choose to mix colors use A LOT of paint so you won't run out before you're finished. Save the extra paint in an airless container or ziplock for touch-ups and avoid wasting paint. 3. You don't have to lay the paint on thick. 4. Remember that only the first coat of paint will show through. I know this is obvious just something to keep in mind, it's easy to forget while painting. I attached a picture of the BG on the 25 gallon we painted, the tank is very new and the water is still cloudy from the sand, sorry about that." Thanks for sharing Charlie, we're going to have to try this...! | 2/8/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Customer Reviews
Informative Hosts with personality!
Great little podcast about how a couple deals with their aquarium hobby. Very informed host with lots of knowledge about aquariums. Please keep it going! Considering how huge the hobby is on the web there is a dearth of good podcasts like this one.

My aquatic addiction has expanded to include fresh water invertabrates thanks to Rus and Kelly. Listening to the Podcast has helped me avoid frustrating mistakes, allowing me to enjoy the hobbie more. Thanks for entertaining and sharing your knowledge!
For advanced and newbie aquarium and fish lovers.
If you have trouble understanding those specialist shows where everyone appears to be speaking Martian then this is your show. Highly knowledgeable and extremely friendly, both Rus and Kelly dole out great advice from personal experience that anyone can understand. They are also extremely willing to answer your questions rapidly whether sent by email or called in. This show is also probably the only one out there that kids can follow as well as adults. Great work guys!
