Hi everyone, I have been doing ALOT of research and looking at pictures etc and I think I finally determined what kinds of fish I was given with the tank- This is what I have-- 1- 6in Common Pleco (I know, I shouldnt have a Common but he/she was given to me with the tank & is about 4 yrs old)...

I bought the tank from someone that was giving it away on Craigslist... so I cant bring it back..

I am not sure what I should do if anything at all. I noticed when I was setting my tank up after I brought it home that my pleco has a hole about the width of a pencil in his fin. what should I do?

Yes the water as well as the sides of the tank and the light undercover had algae all over it. at the LFS I bought Aquarium Pharmaceuticals Stress Coat Aquarium Water Conditioner- What else to I need to do? This is my first tank ever so I dont know anything about checking levels etc. The...

HEELLPPP!! I went to pick up the fish tank that I was given and when I got there, there were green algae EVERYWHERE!!! What it a brown/green color.. I was told by the LFS that I have to do a partial water change... How do I get rid of the green!! and the water color??? Please hurry!! Wanna save...

Yes!! There are a couple of those as well as one with blue tales. What are those?

Yes there is 2 maybe 3. I was just given the tank, I will bringing it home on Sunday.. I will be adding more fish asap! The woman that has it now clearly didnt do any reading on the fish she bought. She just went and bought a couple (2 or 3) of each type. I am trying to right her wrong :-)

I believe the other tetras are Congo Tetras.. not exactly sure tho. They look kinda like an Angel fish. male i believe, pretty blue tails.

I do too!! Hopefully he/they will be more comfortable and happier while in my care.. :-) I am going to do my best

Yes, I know. Unfortunatly, the previous owners of the tank (I was just given it) didnt pay any mind to which breed they were purchasing. She said she just wanted an algae eatter and bought it. Sadly she had him/her for 4 YEARS and it is only 6 inches. Therefore, I am told that his growth was...
