    Decided to call it quits on the salty side and breed betta fish

    Thanks for the input I did do salt water for a number of years so cost definitely isn’t a problem I’d regularly spend 150 to 200 every time I made an order on supplies/ coral/ fish or aquariums. I’m doing this entirely for the experience maybe I like it maybe I don’t if I make even a little...

    aquascaping a new tank

    My honest opinion is that it looks very formal. This could be good or bad depending on what you’re going for. Don’t go with 2 because you’re asking for disaster to happen. The other 2 look very nice. I’d personally put short plants in to give a nice meadow look and frost the back of the...

    Is it possible to level this kind of stand?

    You’re tank is fine. if it wobbles shove something under it. As far as not being level the worst that will happen is the higher side of the aquarium will be an eye sore.

    My wife gets mad when I buy stuff for my aquarium. What to do?[emoji848]

    Setting up a saltwater aquarium is really the only expensive part once it’s up and going I’d compare it to buying dog food every month with the occasional splurge on buying a new coral here and there cost wise. As long as you start up right and don’t take short cuts I wouldn’t be to worried...

    Weird white slugs?

    Scrape them out they don’t harm anything but they spread any chance they get and are an eye sore

    Coral won’t open

    I’ve had zoas that only parts of the colony would open on. 2 weeks isn’t bad. If they don’t open soon just move them somewhere with low light and less water flow when they open try moving where you want them. I had a colony of brown button polyps that didn’t open for over a month and suddenly...

    I wish! I think I’d have to choose between her or my aquariums if I did that

    My wife gets mad when I buy stuff for my aquarium. What to do?[emoji848]

    This thread should mostly be funny my wife just thinks it’s a dumb hobby and a waste of money. King Fishers got it! I can only imagine her reaction [emoji23]

    My wife gets mad when I buy stuff for my aquarium. What to do?[emoji848]

    Thinking of getting a prepaid card so she can’t see what I’m spending. What do you guys do when you’re significant others had enough of your addiction?
