Tip of the Day – 1/8/2015

Need a little morale booster to get you back into the aquarium keeping spirits? Sometimes the littlest things can give your tank back that sparkle that reignites confidence, inspires growth, and gets you excited about your tank again. Something as simple as scraping the algae off the glass with a magnet scraper, or changing out the carbon, or cleaning a protein skimmer can have huge positive effects, resulting in a really good looking tank. Water changes do the same thing, and in any situation it seems that adding a little elbow grease to the mix will get you refocused. So, one day when you’re not working and have a little extra time to yourself, get reacquainted to your aquarium and immerse yourself in the hobby once again.
