I don't remember what he will be breeding next or how often he sells them. I will be purchasing some more after I get some more aquariums installed but that will be a little ways off.

If no one here has any try Aquabid but ask the people at rainbow-fish.org about the sellers. Rosline17, at least I think that is correct, sells some nice bows on Aquabid. I have found that not all bows are created equal and my Bosemani, Praecox, and Parva are great examples. I hope to be...

Do you have pics of the threadfins?

Hello, I am looking for Christmas and/or flame moss. Will need to be shipped to 32444 zip code. Thank you,

I use a waterbed pump to drain and fill my aquarium. I bought a piece at Lowe's that allows me to connect my gravel vac to the pump. I just switch the pump off if it gets too much gravel in it. I also purchased an RV hose to use. It is not as stiff as a garden hose. Also purchased quick...

Do you have any Christmas Moss or Flame Moss?

I used Dr. Tim's One and Only to cycle my tank. After two weeks of cycling I started adding fish. I have had over 40 small fish in a 120 gallon for over a month with 0 ammonia. Dr. Tim claims that with his product there is no need to cycle. I don't think I would go that far but from what I saw...

Has anyone changed the substrate in a cycled tank? Just wondering if it can cause problems. I am using a sump for filtration on a 120 gallon tank. Thanks, NovaHeat

Nitrates are down to 5 and everything else is still 0. Employees at the LFS are starting to take a look at the fishless cycle process after they have seen the success with mine. NovaHeat

Is anyone using an Ultraviolet Sterilizer in a freshwater fish and plant tank? I was thinking about getting one but wanted to see if anyone has had any experience with them. Thanks, NovaHeat

All but the original Dwarf has been returned to LFS. Everything is back to normal. It would have been nice to keep them but the price of their health was at stake. Thanks, NovaHeat

I was thinking about mixing them. My fixture holds two 96w and two 65w. Does anyone know the main purpose of the 12000K? Thank you, NovaHeat

Judge92, peaceful if there are only one, yes. Peaceful if there are two or more is debatable. I have four in a 120g and I am having problems with them. The first one was fine with my other fish but they don't like each others company. I have seen some posts where they are not having any problems...

I have three choices when it comes to bulbs, 1200k, 6700K, and 50/50. I am not counting the blue lights that I have been told are for saltwater. The light that came with my tank was a 50/50. Wife liked the colors off of it better than the 6700K lights I have now. Is a 50/50 okay for plants...

I wondered about the common name of the blue with red stripes. The only name other than Latin name I have seen is Dwarf Gourami. All of the other dwarf gouramis I have seen had something added, honey, powder blue, etc. I had heard the Dwarfs were more laid back than the regular Gouramis. I want...
