Hi - My 35g AIO has been up and running for almost 7 years now. The tank has gone through its ups and many downs. Its actually pretty decent right now with my occasional water changes and after I replaced my brs filters and killed off most algae a year ago using fluconzaole. I am about to pick...

Stopped by yesterday and all the fish / corals / live plants / invertebrates / live rock were on sale for 75% off. Ok, all that left were some live rock and sad looking coral. The livestock was moved to the Halsted store and they will be renovating the Clyborn fish section. No idea on time frame.

Hi -I recently purchased a used acrylic aquarium manufactured by Innovative Plastics and sold through Old Town Aquarium. I'm in the process of setting up the tank and would love to chat with any one else who has one of these tanks, especially about how you set up the rear chambers. Thanks in...
