I remember an Aqueon HOB coming with my 55 gallon when I first got it. I had my tank set up close to where I sleep and it was awful at night. I ended up getting some filter floss and just stuffing it inside of the filter to disrupt most of the splashing noise it was making, and that kept...

I've been putting in blanched romaine lettuce from our garden every couple days and my BN Plecos seem to really enjoy it. So does my Rainbow Shark. I'm going to try zucchini tomorrow actually to see how he likes it.

The craziest thing just happened to me a few minutes ago so I had to make a post about it! So back in May of this year, I bought a tiny little Rubber Lipped Pleco for my 55 gallon tank, and a day after I added him to the tank my girlfriend and I headed to New York to visit some of her family...

I may be interested in getting rid of the male, but not sure yet. I'll know more by the end of this week probably, as I'm going to consider getting a new tank to start cycling and possibly separate my adults. Forgive me for asking such a dumb question, but I've never had to quote a shipping...

I actually live sort of close (about an hour away) from Elmer's Aquarium. I've thought about calling them to see if they accept fry, but I haven't gotten around to doing so because I just dread driving that far to get rid of a handful of fish, lol. I'll probably call them this week though to...

Will the male be alright by himself or will he get lonely not having any other mollies to stay with?

I don't really want to put anything else into my 55 gallon, so sadly that is not really an option. That's why I'm looking to separate the parents and then hopefully find homes for my current fry.

Well, right now in my 12 gallon I have 5 Neon Tetras, 3 GloFish Danios, 2 Peppered Corydoras, and 1 Otocinclus. If I separated my mollies I would be putting my one male in to that tank. I'm not too concerned about the molly being compatible with the other fish in the tank, I just don't want...

I'm trying to think of a temporary solution to stop my mollies from breeding for a while until I can get rid of my current fry and then get a better solution in to place. The only other tank I have right now is a 12 gallon with some neon tetras, glofish, and cory cats in it. I was thinking of...

I've thought about craigslist before, but I live in an extremely small town that is pretty out of the way of any major city, so usually no one close to me ever browses craigslist for anything. I've tried selling other things in the past on there and no one has ever responded.

Just bumping this thread again to see if anyone else happens to be interested at this time. My first two batches of fry are still growing well and doing great, but I'm still searching for homes for them as I don't have another tank ready to put them in right now. One of my females also just...

I actually just ended up leaving all of my fry in my tank. None of them have died or been nipped at by any of the other fish. They just completely ignore them, it's kind of cool. The first batch of them are now bigger than large neon tetras and still doing just fine.

Sounds good! I'll try to get some updated photos of them in the coming week or two.

Yeah, I'll probably do that shortly. For now, continue on with your ideas though, Cichlids or otherwise! :D

Woo, that makes me even more excited about a Cichlid tank now! I may have to refine my original post to say give me your best suggestions for an African Cichlid tank! haha.
