Skimmers, like, activated carbon, for a reef tank are best used only very occasionally. Certainly do NOT use either while feeding your DT's phytoplankton, the skimmer will _ it right out.

If you grab the lower lip
then hold the gill flaps down
the mouth will usually stay open while you work
( same as when taking eggs or fry from a holding female)...
I'd suggest good quality tweezers or very small needle nose pliers

or
making it easier to slide the tank

the stand

glass aquariums are designed to sit in their moldings
the moldings sit on any surface
(iron stand, pine stand, any solid table top)
as long as the whole perimeter is supported...
what size tank are you talking about?
why do you ask...
are you making your own home-made tank?

quick filters

I love 'em alot
but yes
the carts do clog quickly
they also don't stand up to alot of rinsing

to make it last longer, try carving a big sponge
...like a aquaclear 110 (old name 500) sponge
to shape

I found arowanas to be really cool....however, I've heard they're very aggressive. When they get old, they are very greedy for food...when they are young...they are kind of shy and wimpy.
