i was wondering what i should sugest to her? i've kept female bettas, otos, tiger barbs, zebra danios, rosboras, tetras and an SAE (not at the same time of course) in a 10, but i think she wants something a little flashier. are swordtails, or fancy guppies good for a set up like this? or are...

My professor has put me in charge of the aquatic plants. I was looking for around 10 plants that are easy to grow and can be used in ponds or aqariums. they will be grown in a grren house so light needs are not an issue. As for payment I can cover shipping if it doesn't get too expensive, If...

Well i've set up a 10 gallon tank and started it cycleing. it's been one day and the water is still cloudy, it looks exactly the same as when i took it from the tap. is it just over oxygenated or is there something else wrong. i have an Aqua-tech 5-15 filter and an air pump under a taracotta...

ok i got my first test kit ever and well the pamphlet with what all those colors mean seems to be missing, and i'm rather annoyed, my ammonia, nitrate, and nitrite all read perfect from what i can see on the side of the box but i don't know what my alkalinty, ph or hardness is since none of the...

what in the world is this? it started out as fine strands of green algae wraped around the plant and now it's just become this bubble filled slime. what is it and how do i get rid of it?

it started as a skinny little string and stayed that way for the past 4 days so i didn't think anything of it. but tonight is seems to have taken over one of my (plastic) plants, and it looks really slimy like pond scum almost, what is is and where in the world did it come from? sorry about the...

so i finally got around to making that devided tank like i wanted ^_^ it's a 5 gallon aqua-tech. nothing fancy i know but my boys, tama and bixbite, are loving it :D the divider is made out of the backing for a notebook i had, it's heavy duty plastic and i put in holes for water circulation

i walked into my room yesterday to find my rat snake had escaped. franticly i searched the area, because if my step-dad found him before i did, things would have gotten ugly real fast. where did i find him? 3 feet from his tank in my 10 gallon aquarium :lol: but it could have been worse and...

i'd like to have a planted tank, but i only have a 10 gallon tank to work with lol anyway i want to know if there are any plants that won't take over the tank too badly, stay under 8" in height, and don't need a ton of fancy lighting/equipment to mantain? and it wuld be nice if they were easy to...

so i got a ten gallon tank from a friend of mine, i'd been using it for my kingsnake so the fact that it didn't hold water wasn't a problem. well now i want to fix it up so i can attempt a small planted tank, for guppies or platties. is there a cheap way i can fix the tank? will resilaconing...

so from what i've read it seems like the common veiltail is considered the white trash of the betta world. so they are seemingly ignored by breeders, i understand that because they are so common people will overlook them when shown a halfmoon or crowntail, but i still see them as some of the...

so i've been thinking another small (10 gals or less) tank might be nice, i've fallen in love with dalmatian mollies, and was wondering if dwarf gouramis would be good tank mates? and if not then what could i mix them with? it's not like i'm going out and getting all the stuff tomorrow i was...
