    picture of our tank currently

    getting a new tank stand?

    I would like to get a new tank stand for my 75 gal. Something a bit nicer than the one I have. I am thinking either black (not shinny) or med. oak. Is there a good place to get one that is reliable and the least expensive?? Thanks, Stacie

    algea wafers

    Hello About once a week I give each of my larger snails half a wafer depending on how big they are. They immediatly go over and chow down and I even had one snail that used to eat them out of my hand. My other fish try to peck at them at first (esp. if they are hungry) but they dont seem to...

    Im having problems treating ich

    Hello As much as this topic is covered you wouldnt think I would be having so much trouble. I noticed the ich about 2 months ago but since it was during the holidays and my fish didnt seem in distress I just watched them and then started treatment once the kids went back to school. I picked...

    tennhound I know it can be so hard trying to not only figure out the inch of fish per gallon. Just tonight I went out to get an algea eater for my 75 gal and something cool for my sons 10 gal.
