    the most you've paid for a single fish

    $2200 for a super red Arowana. Just kidding. I thought about it for a second though. A split second. Then I blinked and came back to reality.

    My love nest fish tank

    They're all in a 150g tank and seem very happy. They are not locking lips. They just swim next to each other shuddering. The Balas and Yo Yo are only 2.5 inches. The Aro is about 6 inches and the angel is about the size of a nickel. So they're still fairly young. Maybe they're...

    My love nest fish tank

    I noticed in the past few days that my fish have been showing a lot of affection towards each other. When I first bought my veil tail angel as soon as I put him in he/she started staring at the Arowana. It couldn't be for food because the Aro is 5 times bigger. The Aro has never shown any...

    Is salt the same as salt the same as salt???

    What's the difference between "Aquarium Salt", "Salt water aquarium mix salt" and just plain "kosher" salt. I read that Aquarium salt is supposed to be evaporated sea water and has minerals. But isn't that what the salt water mix is? Then you've got Kosher salt which is supposed to be just...

    Need help with Ghost Shrimp

    Yeah, I've noticed that the white opaque look is the look of death. When they change colors I know that my Oscar is going to get a snack soon.

    new driftwood

    I bought some "driftwood" last week. I've steamed it with a steam cleaner and soaked it for 2 days. They're too big to fit in a pot. I put them in the tank and they float like a dry duck. So I put some rocks on top and are holding them down until they get water logged. My question is there...

    3" Oscar ate 3" Bala shark

    I moved my Bala shark into the QT tank because it had a touch of ick. My Oscar is in the QT tank because it was getting over some ick. It's ready to move to my aggressive tank but it's not completely cycled yet. Well as soon as the Bala gets out of the cup the Oscar had the nose of the shark...

    How long will my 140g take to cycle?

    The filter was kept moist and sealed for about 3-4 days before I started pumping H2O through it. The gravel was kept slightly moist in a bucket for the same period. The fish in there are mostly minnows (feeders). Only one goldfish. I think I'll add a few more minnows and wait a week then...

    How long will my 140g take to cycle?

    Hi everyone, I just got a used 140g tank. I kept most of the gravel and rocks as well as the Eheim wet/dry that came with it. However before I set it up I rinsed off the old gravel which was really grimey and rinsed off the substrate from the filter. I tried not to clean too much and just...

    Fancy Oscar question

    Oscars are usually pretty tough. I messed up once and put new water during a water change that was 10 degrees colder . 2 Pacus developed ick and eventually died. But my Oscar pulled through and is doing very well now.
