Thanks for the replies. I do not have sand, I have little round pebbles. I literally searched that whole aquarium now and have not found him. Odd, I will keep my eye out to see if he pokes out somewhere, a fish literally can't disappear?

Hey there, I have not seen my Pleco for a full day now. I moved around and looked in all my decorations and plants, no sign of him. My aquarium is completely covered, so I doubt he jumped out, plus I looked all over the floor. All I have in this aquarium is 3 Raspboras, 2 White Clouds, 2...

Don't see anything related to what this looks like. It looks like a clearish/white sac coming out between the head and the shell area.

Hello all, hope someone can help me identify what is coming/growing out of my snail. Here is the pic, its not very good had to take it with my phone; http://www.geocities.com/incorpporated/snailpic.JPG Looks like a white sac of something coming out from above his/her head, he/she has been...

Ugh, thought maybe it left her! Yup it says feed 1-2 times a day, 3 days straight for four weeks. So every Sunday to Tuesday for the next four weeks I am going to feed them this food.

Today after work, I went to the LFS and bought a food that eliminates parasites. It contains Lavamisole, and treats against nematodes. I also bought a Gel incase they dont eat this food. Upon getting home, I noticed the red/pinkish thing gone from her anal area, no other visible signs of...

Thank you very much, I will go buy that food tomorrow from the LFS. Hopefully she will eat it.

Hello all, Today I noticed a something that is a red/pinkish colour protruding from my Glass Tetra's anal cavity. I am curious what this could be, and how to fix it. Thanks for any information or help, BP

Tank has been setup for 8 months now, and have had the Mollies in there since the beginning, had the babies about 2 weeks in, all 3 lives and are now half the size of the adults. Added the Fruit Loops about a month and a half after setup, and they are doing great.

Hello, I got 3 juvenile and 2 adult Mollies, and 2 Fruit Loop Tetras (yes, I fell victim to not knowing about the dying process). I want to add a cleaner type of fish, what would be recommended? Is there any small Pleco's that stay small? Any other kind of fish recommended? Just want...

Thanks for the suggestions, I think I might try the Ghost Shrimp first, see how that goes. Speaking of which, would Mollies eat/kill a Ghost Shrimp?

Yeah I have a Stealth 25 submersible heater, automatically turns off to avoid overheating. Would an Otto in each side be too much fish for a 5 gallon? About the snails, is there a clear way to determine male/female? Just worried about them because if they are mixed, and I got a female, she...

Hello, I have a 5 gallon divided Betta tank setup. I have a sponge filter running. I cut the divider perfectly to fit the sponge filter with no holes/spaces so that it could filter both sides. I do not overfeed them, and they like their food. But sometimes they will spit their food out and...

Thanks for the information. I just sent Dr Foster and Smith an email asking about shipping prices and how to order from their website from Canada. Buying a 25 Watt Stealth Heater, and 2 Sponge Filters. How often do the sponge filters need to be replaced with new sponges? Also how do you keep...

I wan't to setup a 3 Gallon tank to hold a Betta for my fiancee. Measurements are 14 length x 8 height x 8 width, I think it is a 3.5 Gallon. I couldnt find a top/light for this little tank, do I really need one? I got a mesh cover for it. In fact can I even get a light cover for it? Or would a...

I believe its a 12 or 15g, it's my fiancee's tank that she brought with her when we moved out together. The plant's are plastic, but they are soft. When we have cleaned them, they did not have any rough edges to them. But then again soft to us, could be sharp to them. Never thought I could...

Hello, I also have been curious if I could add a Betta to my aquarium. I have 5 Mollies and 2 Skirt Tetras. Here is a picture of my tank, I have quite a few hiding places. http://img250.imageshack.us/my.php?image=fishtankyy3.jpg Thanks, Blake

She died sometime during the night :( Before I went to bed, her hole got big and squared off, so I turned the light off and went to bed thinking there would be some babies there in the morning. However, I found her floating on her side dead. I am presuming birth complications, as she seemed...

Here are some behavioural patterns she has been showing this past week. - She was swimming up and down the side of the aquarium earlier this week. - The past few days shes been swimming, but not as much as usual. - Last night she started staying in one spot under the filter lip, and sometimes...

After the third 75% water change, I got the Ammonia down to 0.25ppm. The Molly is doing fine still, definately looking like his normal self again. But noticed my Guppy has her tail nipped up a bit, one of the baby Mollies seems to be picking on her at times. Might have to QT her when I get...

Thanks again, I will squeeze the old filter in the future. Also, thanks again for the feedback, I did a recent test after the second 75% water change and the colour of the test dropped about two shades, so I think I got it to 0.50ppm. I will do another WC tonight, let them relax a bit after...

Sweet thanks, will do. Should I keep the carbonless filter in? or go get one with carbon in it? This one is brand new, just cut a slit and dumped the carbon out yesterday for the medication.

Just did another 75-80% water change. Ill do another test in a couple hours. When the temperature hits 87 degrees, how long should I let it sit at that temperature to kill the bacteria (ich)? I had it upwards of 86-88 yesterday for a good portion of the day.

Tank has been up and running for 6+ months now. I put my Mollies in around the third week because I was told at my LFS that they would help cycle it. Yes I have an airstone in, have had it in for the past month.

Yeah it was a new filter :( My are acting normal, going to do another water change now, just did another Ammonia reading and its around 1 or 2 still. I am an idiot.
