I purchase some neon tetra and place them in quarantine for 4 weeks. I treated with Aquarium Co-Op trio of meds and of the 25, I lost 5. Today I moved the rest to my main display tank and they are the first tenants.
I'll be getting another batch of neon tetra and was wondering can I use the...
I have been cycling a 75 gallon for a week and I know I have some time to go. However, I was wondering how high should I see my Nitrite go? My Ammonia is dropping very very slow and my Nitrite has risen to 2ppm. The 2ppm and 5ppm colors are so close so I did a half strength test with tank...
About 2 years ago I was looking to start a 75 community tank, but life got in the way. Now that things have settled, I am looking to get started again. This time around, I am looking to do a BIG school of neon tetras. I saw a video from Aquarium Co-Op where Corey showed a tank (not for sale)...
I raised my outlet from the canister filter just a bit to help with surface agitation and within about 30 mins, the oil slick has gone away. The only issue is that now, my outlet is creating that waterfall sound so I'll see how long the family can deal with it before I have to figure out...
I finally add some fish after about a 6 week cycle. However, after about 2 weeks, I have begin to notice an oily film on the surface of my water. I've been researching and believe it is because of overfeeding or they type of food. I've been feeding once a day, every other day and only a small...
I haven't had a tank setup in the last 6 years so I'm starting all over again. Back then I had a beautiful 12" tiger oscar in my 75 gallon. This time around, I'm looking to do a community tank so that I can have more movement and colors. I just started my fishless cycle last week with Ace...
I have a 75 gallon AGA tank that is currently being used as a FW community tank that I'm ready to convert to a SW reef tank. I have the tank, an AGA pine stand and an AGA pine canopy. I think I have everything on my shopping list, but I need some help making sure everything is ok.

I decided to get a retofit kit for my AGA pine canopy for a 75 gallon. However, I'm not sure which kit to get. I'm not sure what is the difference between these 2:
48" 4x54W SLR T5 High-Output Retrofit Kit w/ Bulbs...
I have a 75 gallon AGA tank with the AGA pine canopy. I'm not sure excatly what I want to keep, still researching, but I know I want to keep some of the easier corals. I don't think I'll be getting into the more diffcult corals anytime soon.
Right now, I'm look at the T-5 lighting. I've...
I know my rocks are going to be my bigest investment at first. Lights sometime down the road maybe. I just want to make sure that I'm spending the money where it needs to be most and reuse what I can, if I can. I was thinking that the AC 110's would do, but I'll invest in powerhead if needed...
I read both opinions about the sand and was not sure either way. I'm trying to figure out the steps needed starting from a clean empty tank. So far I have:
1) Fill tank 3/4
2) Add AC 110's and turn on (what media should I use in the filters)
3) Add SW mix to the tank (how do you properly...
I currently have 2 75 gallon FW tanks and I'm want to convert one to SW. Currently I have an 8" oscar with 4 silver dollars in one tank and in the other I have a community tank with mollies, guppies, platies and a 3 angles. The community tank is the one I'm thinking about converting to a SW...
My black molly has finally release some babies. I only count about 4 though. I've noticed that the dominate male, stays very close to her often flaring up when anyone comes near. However, he will ofter chase her staying right underneath and the next in line male will do the same. He will...
