Sexing corries can be tricky, but the males are usually smaller, and their dorsal fin more pointed. They breed in groups, so you better have room for at least six of them. They are egg scaterers (from what I've read about them) so chances are that you won't have to raise the eggs seperately...

This thread belongs both under sick fish, and breeding because of the molly recently giving birth. My mollies get a little skiddish after their births, and hide in my big house decoration. After a few days, they come out regularly, and become part of the community again. If it were only your...

get her out of that net, it causes them a ton of stress. be sure to have hiding places at the top and bottom of the tank. (you can float plastic plants at the top) when she drops, expect 20-40 fry (you probably wont get to save all of them, but that's just nature taking its course) best of luck...

Don't get me wrong, the new site format looks pretty nice. It's just irritating that there is no log-in space on the first page that comes up when I type in the aquarium advice address. I have to go into the forums, and then the option to log-in is in the upper right hand corner of the page...

Have you checked the classifieds section of this website? There are usual some pretty good deals on here, and always friendly people to buy from.

always check around the base of the decorations. i pick my decorations up very quickly so that if there are any hiders under there, they get picked up with the newly created current. they dive right back down into the gravel, but at least you'll know if you have any in there. also, they hide in...

the golden one is a twin bar platy... don't know if that's a mistake that you made identifying her or if she is just in the picture. in my experiences, platies drop more babies and more often, but they are about half the size of mollies at birth, and most of them dive for the rocks. naturally...

the birthing process of a molly is only 1-5hrs long (in my experience) chances are, that she gave birth when you weren't around, and most of them were eaten. my mollies give birth every 4-6weeks, so stay aware. sounds like your dalmation either has a ton of babies, or a good batch of very...

"Baby tears" is correct, i googled the long scientific name and that's what came up :) i will look into getting some of that. (it's very pretty!)

Thank you for this advice, i will look for the correct bulbs for both my 29g and my 10g now. (i only have one 15w bulb going in my 10g small twin-light hood)

where were these taken? is this your pond? that's alot of koi!

Found out that the light is an incandecent. (I hope I spelled that right) How big of a difference does this make? My bulbs of water grass are doing just fine, and one is getting pretty long, almost to the point of poking out of the surface of the water. I will look up guppy grass and...

Still no luck with selling the livebearers... Wal-Mart is freaking confusing... I'm going to try to sell to my local LFS once more, and if the owner tells me yet again that she refuses to buy livebearers, I'm going to go insane. I have some friends that are interested in setting up a tank, and...

turns out that the ambiacus is actually a geryi (there are way too many breeds of this little catfish) and the aeneus is actually a carlae. thank you for recommending planet catfish to me, Coursair. Never would have guessed that there were so many corydoras species...

ErinMcG, please read read post #8.
