Well, I guess it is probably a rite of passage.... I am in the midst of my first ich outbreak in my 20g extra high planted tank. Given most of the residents are tetras I did a little less than half a dose of Nox-Ich which I happened to have on hand.... unfortunately, I also have Amano shrimp in...

Hi All.... My 20 gallon extra high is going fine... good water (had a ph dip, but it has remedied itself), plants growing well (low tech).... But the Neon Tetras I added last Sunday hide constantly! They share their space with 2 danios and 2 guppies, both from a previous set-up. The guppies...

I have a 20g extra high (24"h, 20"w, 10"d) that is heavily planted (anubias, java fern x 4, dwarf sag x 4, hygrophilia, and aponogeton x 3).... I have 3 pieces of driftwood, 2 small, 1 large, various rocks.... substrate is EcoComplete. Tank is about 2 months old, cycled using seeded material...

I have a 16 gallon partially planted tank that has recently had a few snails hitchhike in on one of the plants... they were tiny but are definitely getting bigger. One is already almost the size of my Nerite snail. How quickly do pond snails breed is the question and what other problems...

Hi All..... First time poster, lurker for a while. I have a 16 gallon tank.... about 3 months old. I have 3 Rasboras, 3 Danios, 2 Otos, and 1 Netrite snail. I have just plastic plants until about 4 days ago, then I added 1 Wisteria, then yesterday added 3 more live plants. My problem is that I...
