Not a new tank. I've had it for over a year. I just replaces the filter (let the new filter sit in the tank for a week before I swapped them). I guess I'll just let it go away. At what point do I need to become concerned?

A brown film had developed on the plants and items in my tank. I'm not sure what it is. I recently performed a water cleaning by removing 2/3 or the water and replaced it. After the swap it appeared on the top of my plants and had slowly worked its way down the tank. Anyone have an idea what...

I bought some Bloodworms to feed my fish but I'm not sure now much to feed them. They are frozen 2.8oz cubes. Normally I give them the standard Tropical Flakes (just a pinch) and it's worked great for months. My tank is a 10 gallon and has the following fish; 2- Guppies 2- Mollies 3- Neon...

I forgot to mention that I also added a black backdrop to give it more depth and hide the cords and the wall. I like it.

Thank you. I built up the right side with more gravel to give it more height and more of a drop off to the ship.

Here is one that I have. Volcano (Ring of Fire) on the left and a Bridge on the right with the tall plants in the middle.

I decided to give the fish some more room to swim and enjoy life.

Thank you everyone for the advice. I'm going to change the decor this weekend while leaving the fish in the tank. I'll have some pics when I'm done. Thanks

If I don't take the fish out of the tank do I risk stressing them too much with the constant moving the water and inserting and removing my arm into the tank? Or is moving them to a temp tank just as stressful?

I currently have a bridge and a bubbling volcano with tall plants in the middle (see profile pic). Was considering adding more gravel, removing the bridge along with half the tall plants. Moving the other half of the plants to the right and replacing the bridge with something of equivalent size...

Have a 10G tank with 6 fish, a frog and shrimp and want to change the decor. I was thinking of taking the animals and placing them into our 1G tank using the existing tank water. Then draining the tank and replacing some decor. Is there anything that I should be aware of or make sure that I...

Nice. Thanks. Ammonia: 0ppm Nitrite: 0ppm Nitrate: 10ppm I'm actually surprised that there was no ammonia. The Ghost Shrimp did their job.

I'm aware that fish eat other fish but I was more wondering if these little fish could eat another fish to the bones that fast?

10G tank 2 Guppies 2 Molly's 3 Neon Tetras (now two) 3 Ghost shrimp We fed fish our normal yesterday and everything seemed fine and all fish accounted for. 30 hours later we had one less Tetra and a carcass (See attached for picture). Is it possible to go from normal to just bones in 30 hours...

Nice. I too enjoy taking care of my fish and tank. It would probably be different if I had a 50+G tank but for now I really enjoy my 10G
