does anyone use an auto feeder on their tank? I'm looking at the Ehiem everyday feeder for the freeze dried black worms and flakes.

Update on the 75 gallon. This fall during hurricane Matthew I lost power for 4 days at my home. I had left a battery back up system on my tank that ended up failing. I was out of town for those 4 days and my discus tank really took a hit. 3 of my 4 Alenquers got sick and stopped eating. I moved them to a quarantine tank and unfortunately over a month each fish died. I however was able to Save one of my 4 Alenquers as well as my 2 fire reds. So as it sits right now my 75 has the three discus with a small school of rummynose and cardinal tetras. The surviving discus are now about 4-4.5" and are anywhere between 9-11 months old. I hope that they can still grow to a decent size even with the stress of what they went through from the storm. I would like to soon put in an order again with discus Hans to replace the 3 that I lost. These guys are still on Hans frozen beefheart mix and today I just received another order of Freeze dried black worms from aquaticsuppliers. This time I have gone with the Bio-pigment plus. I put in a cube this morning and these guys are nuts over it!

That is a shame you lost those fish... sorry to hear

[Bryon3420]

Its all part of it I guess. They were all very young too so I know that did not help. The Fire reds have been laying eggs lately so maybe someday I will try to breed them. They are still a little young though so I think I may actually try once they mature a little more.

Just be sure to QT all new fish... not fun if you donT!!!

[Bryon3420]

Absolutely. I'm hoping to get these guys to color up some more too.
