Thanks for reaffirming my initial instinct. It's my first time with a Molly, so I just wanted to make sure he was all right. My daughter named him Mohawk because of his dorsal fin...seems apt I think

This is going to sound strange, but I've a sail fun Molly that will randomly attempt to eat the bubbles my filter gives off...I was curious if I should be concerned at all?
His appetitive is good, he's moving around readily and active...it's just whenever he's near the outflow he'll stop and...
The filter sponge worked like a charm! Thanks for the great idea! Now onto a different question I inherited a tank and stand from my dad that I think is 30 gallon, but he swears it's 45 gallon...unfortunately he bought it probably 20 years ago and hasn't used it in 5. It's dimensions are 30 inch...
Thanks! I'll look into that...the others seem to be avoiding the intake quite readily now. I was also curious if there was any middle swimmer I could add in a month or two since I have a top and bottom swimmer?
Of course I don't want to overcrowd such a small tank, and need to let the others get...
Added 6 male guppy and 4 ghost shrimp yesterday evening. Everything is good so far barring the loss of one guy who strayed too close to the back between the glass and intake. Long story short he got stuck for a few minutes, my wife noticed it and we got him off...but the damage was done.

:lol: You probably did...I like to pool my information and test the waters, especially with online forums to see which one I prefer. (see what I did there:brows:)
Luckily I have a hood, but I don't want to needless stress any one out. I don't think the filter outflow is terrible, then again I'm not a fish. I suppose I'll know by the end of the week though...we're planning on getting the fish tomorrow!
Well...crud. As much as it may excite my little one to see frys, for me that drastically increases the work load. Oh well...no use worrying about what may never come to be.
I have a 10 gallon set up that I've been trying to fishless cycle for a month now, no idea if I'm doing that correctly, but after a lot of research I can say that I think I am. I've been testing the water regularly and all the levels are sitting pretty, so I'm finally ready to think about adding...
Howdy all,
I'm new to the aquarium but have always had an interest in it. My past experience in it is mainly my dad's 30 gallon gold fish tank, mainly watching him care for it and not taking an active role in it...but past that I don't have much experience. I'm sure all have a myriad of...
