...wait so can i furnish the tank with new substrate before i refill the tank at my house?

I am going to be purchasing a 48 gal tank in a couple days that is already set up and running with a parrot fish, some cories, an 8 inch pleco, some other random fish. Its a 20 min drive from the pick up so it should be to bad on them. What I would like to do is change the substrate as soon...

woah... thats amazing.

Seems like every move i make is one in an uninformed direction when it comes to aquarium set up. So i have promised myself to ask BEFORE i go spending hundreds of dollars advice from people who know the hobbie. So here is where i stand... or at least what i want. I was looking for something...

just out of curiousity... how did the plants do with the temp changes and such?

ya i figured anything over 55g was going to be more that i want to deal with. Maybe if i was moving into a house i had just bought... but anyways, nothing to do now but wait for the money situation to be where it needs to be, which is good as i still am at a loss and a number of things.

Ya, so this is pretty much silly... i know i want more fish, im just not going about it right. Instead of making a big deal out of getting all this fish in a 10 gallon and having to clean the thing every 3 days, im just going to go with a bigger tank. i checked prices today, not to bad for a...

well i just found this exact same post pretty much... should have looked a little harder i guess but i still have a few questions i would like cleared up. Should i stick with the cardinal tetra or the glowfish tetras? (i see lots of people going against a mix in such a small tank) Im...

Iv set up my first 10g aquarium set up and ready to go but im a little unsure of what iv been told i can put in the tank. Generally im seeing that 8-10 fish is the limit for the tank size, so my question is can i have a healthy set up with glowlight tetras and cardinal tetras? Should i also...
