    Yeah I guess he could, but knowing him he would forget. And God Forbid I tell him anything. It goes in one ear and out the other. Did I mention I bought this for him for Christmas? He loves it, but it seems as though I am getting into the hobby alot more than expected.

    Sterilizing Tank and Decor

    Well, when I started my tank about a week ago, the fish I got had a bad disease (still don't know what it was) and I was told it's now in my water because it killed ALL of my fish and since i'm at the very beginning of cycling it would be easier and cheaper just to sterilize everything and start...

    Very Simple Question

    Yes, two problems. I'm pregnant and cannot handle pure ammonia. And I'm pregnant and the smell of raw shrimp makes me sick at the moment. LOL

    Very Simple Question

    I have no chlorine in my water. It's well water AND has been tested for it. Do I still need a water conditioner or dechlorinater? [Edit] Also, when should I add the aquarium salt? When I first set the tank up?

    I understand that, BUT my ammonia had gone from 0 to 1.5 in 12 hours and then all fish dies about 6 hours later. 2 catfish and the frog had the slime. All of the other fish had the same symptoms as the frog and catfish except the slime.

    Very Simple Question

    What fish should I begin my 29g tank with? And how many? I know I need something strong and probably inexpensive, right? So far, I've heard danios and guppies. Any other suggestions? Also, I want to put live plants in my tank. What kind and when should I do this? Thanks!

    dead fish

    This happened to all of my fish. I was in the process of cycling. I did all of the PWCs as told and followed everyone's intructions. Still ALL the fish died. All I have left is my frog. I took him out as intructed and I was going to do a fishless cycle. When I took him out he began to develop a...

    Fishless cycle??

    With the raw shrimp am I putting my tank at risk for any diseases? Where can I find pure ammonia? Everywhere I've looked it's a detergent.
