Just wondering if anyone knows of any swap meets for the aquarium hobby in the valley. I know other states that have a large following seem to have them, wondering if AZ does. Thanks for any info...

Last night I was doing my water change on my 70 gallon tank and noticed one of the turquoise rainbows had a cloudy eye that was slightly swollen. Otherwise it acted fine. This morning I found one of the swordtails also had a cloudy eye that is slightly swollen, but it is hiding in the plants...

Has anyone bred Florida Flag fish. If so, what kind of set-up did you use. I understand they are easy to breed, but this will be my first attempt with egg layers. Any advice is welcome. BTW, what do you feed the fry, they will be much smaller than livebearer fry so not sure what to feed...

Hi all, Just getting a little more daring in my attempts with planted tanks. I am setting up a new 75 gallon tank. I used a mixture of Eco Complete with the gravel. I was wondering if you need to add more enriched substrate material eventually, or is this it? I would think if it is...

What are the odds? We have about 25-30 guppy fry that are between 4 weeks to 3 months old, and all of them are girls. Not only that, but the 4 swordtail fry are also all girls. Is there any way to influence the sex of the fry to maybe get a few males? My tank params are: ph 8 nitrite and...

We have had a few batches of guppy fry and a couple batches of swordtail fry. We are wondering how long does it take before you can tell the sex of the fry. Both types of fish have very obvious visual differnces between the sexes, but how long does it take before those differences show? :?:

It's cigar time! One of our two prego Swordtails gave birth last night. We have 6 good swimming fry and 2 that are struggling. They are in a fry tank and getting stronger. :invasion: Now we are waiting for the other to drop her fry. Hoping for 2 more males between the two batches. Does...

This summer we are going to put in a 90 Gallon tank in the Great Room. We have been buying the parts a piece at a time for the last 3 months. We have yet to buy the tank, stand, gravel, and decor items. So, if any of you see a smoking deal, let me know. Or, if you know someone that is going...

OK, I have decided to go to once daily feeding for my community tank. Is it better to feed the fish in the morning, or at night, or does it matter at all. :?: I know the pleco will get fed at night, after lights out. But what is best for his tankmates. They are: Rainbows, Swordtails, Corys...

Living in Arizona means dealing with high temps during the summer. We keep our house AC set at 78. I have been watching my tank temperature for the past 2 weeks and have noticed the following. In the morning when I first turn the lights on, the 70 gallon tank is at a nice 80 degrees. By the...
