    10 gallon saltwater: set-up cost estimate

    Fair enough, thanks for your help, everyone. I'll probably leave my first foray into saltwater to a bigger tank. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    10 gallon saltwater: set-up cost estimate

    Toying with the idea of going saltwater with my empty 10 gallon. I've never done saltwater before, so trying to get an estimate of how much this would cost. Aside from heater and powerhead, I have no other saltwater equipment. I know cost will vary widely depending on what sorts of...

    Can anyone recommend lighting (preferably LED) for a 10 gallon that they've had success growing plants with? Or something that's widely accepted as good quality. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    55 gallon mbuna stocking

    Thanks for the replies guys. Could someone kindly give me a mock stocking list? Or a list of blues/reds/blacks that would work? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    55 gallon mbuna stocking

    Thinking of doing a 55g mbuna tank with 12 dwarf mbuna. So far my stocking list is only: - 4 yellow labs What are my other options? In terms of color I'd like an additional 4 blue mbuna (that aren't demasoni) and 4 red (couldn't find any that were compatible) or black. Sent from my iPhone...

    What SA Cichlids would you put in a 55g?

    Cleared my 55g out and I'm considering doing a South American cichlid aquarium. Just looking for ideas. My ideal choice would be an Oscar but I won't constrict one to a 55. Was also considering a pair of convicts but would love to hear suggestions. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    55g inhabitants for 9 months

    My LFS store (locally owned) takes adult fish and yes, rip you off a bit for credit, but it's better than nothing. I accounted for cycling time, I'm actually there 10 months out of the year. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    55g inhabitants for 9 months

    No, not looking to sell on for profit. I'll get some livestock credit for the fish but that's not the goal. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    55g inhabitants for 9 months

    Long story short: my job now requires me to travel during the summer months and I have no one to look after my 55g. So, the plan is to stock it for 9 months of the year and return the fish come summer. While I'm well aware this isn't ideal, I'd still like to keep the 55 going and it provides...

    Tips to keep fish safe during angel spawn

    As of now the angels are only protective of the plant on which the fry are situated, once they are free swimming will the angels stop being protective of them or will they roam around with them causing havoc in the entire tank? Considering removing the fry and putting them into my 10g. Sent...

    Tips to keep fish safe during angel spawn

    Thank you! So I saw the eggs turn white and disappear one by one, so I just assumed my angels are both female and they were infertile eggs. Little did I know that there's 100's of fry on a leaf that was out of my vision. Negligible aggression from the angels to the rest of the tank mates thus...

    Tips to keep fish safe during angel spawn

    Only other tank I have is a 10g so I couldn't really move the Angels out, but I could move the eggs/fry out. A divider is also a viable option, thanks for that idea. Any idea on whether or not those eggs are fertile (not sure if I have 1 m 1 f or 2 f angels)? They have the color or fertile eggs...

    Tips to keep fish safe during angel spawn

    A little after a week after getting them, my two angels have laid eggs on my anubias. It's a community aquarium and I've never dealt with an angel spawn before, so do any of you have any tips to keep the rest of the inhabitants safe? I've already moved the anubias to the opposite side of the...
