i would be able to make some suggestions, but first could you please convert 27 litres to x amount of gallons? i'm not familiar with metric conversions and whenever i look it up on google i get a headache

if you are pretty sure the fish is a goner and the fungus is really bad then instead of using all of your primafix and melafix and aquarium salt, you might want to use my brand of permafix with 5 easy steps: get a pan, let the stove warm up fill up the pan with water, wait until it starts to...

great white shark for so many reasons they cant fit in one post :P

definitely fin rot, you might want to also do 25% WCs instead of 15%

I just had my mom buy the melafix and i just put it in my tank. on the instruction label, it said to remove the activated carbon. now im wondering if it should be removed for the full length of the treatment or just for a few hours after each dose? Also, since i removed the carbon filter, will...

when you say there isnt one that is appropriate, do you mean in terms of size or that it would do something else? if you mean in terms of size, i have seen algae eaters that don't grow any bigger than a neon tetra. another thing, are there any decent test kits for less than....preferably $10? no...

5 gallon tank, 3 guppies in it, only one has fin rot, no algae eater yet (just got all the stuff, theres no algae yet) i just got the fish yesterday. One last question, where can i buy all that stuff?

this might seem a little stupid but, what does PWC mean? i think i might know what the wc means but idk about the p. as for the water parameters, i have no idea, i'm probably going to get a few of the suction cup sensors in the next couple of days. remember, i'm broke atm, and my mom has had...

hi, i just bought a few guppies yesterday at petsmart, then i wake up today and one of them already might have fin rot. his tail fin has a brownish edge on it and a piece off of the bottom is missing. does it really sound like fin rot? if it is fin rot, what are a few treatments i should use...

really? i thought all the shaking and rattling and bla bla bla would traumatize the fish. But still, sometimes the shipping costs are more than the actual fish

im not familiar with most fish-selling websites (I hate paying for shipping for fish that might not make it from NY to SoCal) but if you go to a local petsmart, you might want to get either the tequila sunrise guppy (very pretty orange/yellow combo) or the cobra endlers guppy (pattern is amazing)

I love silver-tipped sharks, too bad i only have a 5 gal tank :(

hi, i'm kinda new to this hobby and i was wondering about two things if anybody can answer them: What are the normal sleeping habits of fish? (specifically guppies) What are the names and symptoms of common fish diseases? :thanks: in advance

I just recently got back into this hobby, and i BEGGED my parents to get me a 20-36 gal tank (I'm only 13 and i only work for 3 hours a day, $5 and hour, broke.) and they said that if I want a 36 gal then I'll have to prove that I will stick with the fish tank for at least 6 months. So we dug up...

Cobra Endlers Guppy. i just got two of them today, hyperactive little boogers they are :)
