I dunno if i could get tweezers around the rock. His mouth is extended like when goldfish eat and i'm afraid i may seriously injure the flesh around that.

I got a small golfish(3 in) that has a rock stuck in his mouth. what do I do?

I moved my 30 gal tank last weekend. Everything is fine and the inhabitants are happy but I have a snail that has been in it's shell since then, like 5 days now. It's not sticking out at all, it's completely sucked in, so at first i didn't think it was dead. It's been a while and i'm a bit...

I bought the same stuff before, I think on the back it should say not for use in aquariums

My heat index should hit 110 today with temp at 100 , no AC and my fish tank is ~ 90 degrees, no fun :(

Good point Codefox

You should attack other peoples grammer as a sign of intelligence, people can come from different backgrounds, vernaculars, other countries, or maybe english isn't there first language. Whatever the case is it's not right and an elitist POV.

I care for all my fish but I love eating fish and seafood. There's nothing like catching a meal. Not having to pay for it and feeling like you've done it yourself. If you ask me there is a certain aesthetic value to it. I do try to kill the fish as humanely as possible (no letting it flop to...

I've seen a couple post on using it as a substrate, I'm considering using it on my new tank. I was wondering if there is less area for bacteria to colonize becuase it's more compact than gravel? Would this affect bio-load?

It's gonna be for a ~250 gallon tank. What kind of water pump would y'all recommend? I guess reliablilty over time would be the thing that i'm most concerned with. I'm probably gonna buy 2 pumps, for redundency reasons.

I've seen acylic polish for taking out small scratches, I'm wondering if anyone out there has every tried to sand (very fine) and polish their tank and how it looked for a finished product?

I just bought a large acylic tank used :D :D :D . Well, there used to be a divider in there and there is acrylic glue on the inside. I was wondering if there is a solvent that will take off acrylic glue? Or some other way to get it off safely without hurting the acrylic? maybe a buffer?

I really haven't seriously considered anything, I'm going to go look at it today and it'll probably be a while before I can accually get it set up ( funds/time ). But I do enjoy thinking about it a lot :) :) I would really like to have some oscars, love how they look swimming. If there were...
