hmm, ok. It just seems weird because I hear hornwort and java moss are easy to care for.

It has a plant gro bulb and 10,000k bulb. I dose regularly with flourish and excel. My hornwort and java moss seems to turn yellow and grow slowly but my recently purchased water sprite shows good growth. Should I replace it with my 30" coralife 2x 18w t5 fixture?

Oops why did I say hinge.. I meant just the handle with the sticker between it and the glass. Ok, I'll try to remove it with a razor blade.

Is it possible to remove the thick white sticker and handle from the glass without potentially shattering the glass? I am very irritated that the handle is poorly placed and wish it could just be removed... :banghead:

I do not think that will be a problem as I put a lot of my filter floss from my established tank into his filter (which is rated for 20-30 gallons.)

My father has taken interest in buying an aquarium after watching me raise fish for a while now and today he bought two tiger oscars in a tiny 10 gallon tank :nono:. Of course he wasn't convinced and is reluctant to buying an appropriate tank until the oscars grew considerably(they look like...

Yes I believe that the plant is anacharis because it was labeled like that at petco. But I do have suspicions because the anacharis I see online look much more thicker and lusher. The plant I own doesn't seem to have grown much (most of it seemed to have died when I bought it but it grew back...

Yes I plan to upgrade to a 2x 24w hopefully soon. What kinds of liquid fertilizers are best?

After 1 dosage in several hours I see that all of the cottony stuff disappeared. They look normal now. This stuff is great :)

PH is 7.2, ammonia and nitrites are always at 0 (used API test kits.) Temperature is at 78 degrees. I change about 25% every 2 days. Tank was set up for a month. (with a filter used in a previous aquarium, about 6 months old.) I am currently using pimafix. :s

After I bought my albino cories, I noticed little white fibers (like cotton)on their fins. After a few days it seems to have gotten bigger and now one of my cories is going up and down in 1 corner of of the tank near the surface. I suspect that it might be a fungal infection or something but im...
