Full tank pics here

I'm looking for more fish, is there any fish besides a Puffer that I can get that would enjoy them and make my tank look cool, besides picking them out?

The one picture is the updated picture of the tank. The other one is the snail that I am talking about.

Really Really Really Little, will take another picture of the snail and see if I can post all of the pictures here in a couple of minutes.

I just took a couple of pictures to update this thread but I have a problem and I think it could get worse. How do I control snails? They are really little and they seem to multiple, not very fast yet but I have counted 5 this evening, so that means 5x 5x5x5x5=LOTS quick. Any ideas? PS. Will...

The pictures are showing the feat the I have overcome thanks to this website. I have managed to create the nicest tank and keep it alive for almost 2 weeks now (and counting). There is a 100% florite substrate in the bottom. There is as follows on plants. 2 - Radican Swords 1 - Red Rotala 2 -...

New tank as of 2 weeks ago, so far everything looks good. The plants that I put in there are starting to straighten up and te Cory's are swimming around like mad having a good old time. I was planning on getting more plants and fish this afternoon if the wife allows it. Will attach some...

1. Thanks! Should have asked before putting it in. Learning my lesson daily!!!!! RINSE FLORITE WELL, makes mental note to self for next time!! 2. It's an Aquaclear for a 30 gallon tank, only takes 2-4 hours to clear the water up after I planted a couple of plants and stirred up the water. 3...

Hey Guys! Been awhile since I posted my last dumb question. I am in the process of starting up a 30 gallon planted tank as a test run before my big 55 gallon. I have 2 bags of Florite as the only substrate, is this ok? It's going to be a medium light setup with plants and fish. I have a...

Got any pictures of the tank hood you made? Always looking for more ideas for a good hood with high lighting

Thanks for the input. They are about 3 inches long and colored blue, redish brown and about 1/4" to 1/2" wide depends on which on you look at. They are really really active and sometimes they splash the surface of the water.

This is a school of about 10 fish in this tank. Does anyone know what it is? It's in a tank with a Convict Chiclid and they all get along great.

Thanks for the words of encouragement. I also posted for others that might want to share their experiences which you have all done. I am glad to hear that I am not the only person that just setup a tank and watched the fish. I am not giving up the hobby by all means, in fact I was given a 55...

I will get one posted, thanks!

* Not to follow lessons below I have 3 different tanks and moved 3 times with all my fish and have never had as many problems. I do waterchanges every few months and complete tank tear downs every 6 months. I have managed somehow to keep the same fish for 4 years until the last 3 weeks. Upon...

I have read quite a bit on this forum of everything and then I come across more information and I have to start all over again. This one just stumps the heck out of me. Is moonlighting more of an effect preference or does it serve a purpose? Is it for freshwater or just salt water reef/ coral...

After reading alot in the last couple of hours I have come to the conclusion that this tank I have been given is a salt water tank all the way. I am converting it to a fresh water tank and will use the "sump" or "trickle-filter" for an extra area in the tank to add water to the tank so I don't...

The sponge was really gross in the bottom. It doesn't move at all. From the looks of yours the water goes in a slot in the bottom and out the top at the holes. I will have to get better pictures tomorrow but the one I have is solid glass on 2 sides and there is slits on the 2 sides for water...

It's funny you should ask that question. No I don't but I will tell you that the water once it gets above 3 inches in the tank will fill that section and stay the same height all the way up. It has a small slit where the glass doesn't touch completly for about 6-8 inches up on 2 sides, the side...

I have just inheritaded a 55 gallon tank, which I have wanted for years and it seems this one is custom built in everyway possible. It holds water and needed some cleaning but from the pictures you'll notice I do I good job cleaning the tank. I was wondering what the corner item was that is...
