I have a fluval 105 for a new 20 gallon I am setting up, but I am wondering if I should go with the fluval 205 for the extra $30? Or will it be too much flow for a planted tank? Thanks!

I am currently treating ich in my tank by means of heat, its at 86 right now, and has been for 2 days now, I no longer see any signs of it on my fish, so it looks like I will be another 14 days at this temp, and then can start bringing it down if everything looks clear. Anyways can I put some...

I have a few questions on some plants I was looking at purchasing, I was hoping someone may be able to help me out :) Is cryptocoryne wendtii Tropica the same as cryptococryne wendtii Red? I have an area that is shaded by some driftwood but still a bit of light about 2"-3" off the ground...

I believe its a 23 watt CFL, but the shape seems to be unique, anyone know of any online retailers that have some suitable for the aquarium? Secondly is this a half decent light? My tank is 8 gallons, its about 12" deep, so at 3 watts per gallon, am I good with some low light plants? I had my...

I bought a new water pump (Sedra Submersible 2000 Inline) to help me make my water changes easier and it does not seem to work. I have the 3/4" tubing attached to the intake and 1/2" tubing attached to the outake as directed as it does move any water, just makes a loud low squeaking sound, I...
