    Twig catfish (anybody have?)

    I was at my local fish store and saw these. I have never seen these before or heard of them. Are they a very common fish? Are they a very easy fish and get along with most in a tropical community tank? How many should be in a group? Thanks to anyone with info. Sent from my SM-G360P using...

Also when testing my water it shows 0 ammonia, but it does show a high nitrite level, at around 1 ppm, and my nitrate level in my tap water is around 10-20 ppm. so I know that's a problem because my tank is converting it into nitrates and...

    Aquarium power outage question

    I don't have a problem, but was just wondering from people who have had this issue before.
