    Marineland Freshwater Planted LED

    Well they posted the specs for the light, though no price yet. I guess it hasn't shipped to retailers. http://www.marineland.com/sites/marineland/products/Detail.aspx?id=4653 Still, pretty exciting! Edit--- Here is a site that lists them with prices...

    Marineland Freshwater Planted LED

    There is actually some more specific information if you dig through the Q&A. So we will possibly see these in 2 months, there will be a reef one and planted freshwater one and they will both have integrated timers. I've never used onboard timers for lights. Anyone know how friendly/easy to...

    Marineland Freshwater Planted LED

    I'm also interested in these lights. I'm been looking into the double bright LEDs from marineland, but the option of separate timers for night/day is too appealing to not wait for.

    houdini loach?

    I had a zebra loach once. Same thing happened... he just disappeared. I found him a few weeks later under some furniture near the tank which was somewhat surprising at the time considering how secure the lid was and how small the remaining openings were. I'd put money on him having jumped out...

    Is my guppy about to give birth? Or is she full of crap.

    Here are pics of my guppy. Is she close to giving birth or are the gravid spots I see just intestines full of fish waste? How does one tell the difference? Sometimes she looks really round and full, but that could be from food... and sometimes the dark spot gets smaller and fainter. I got...

    Kribensis is not eating anything, except my plants

    I picked up some plankton. It took a few bites for him to not spit it out, but now he loves it and feeds from the surface for other things. I guess it was a break-in period. He had to get used to non-LFS food.

    Kribensis is not eating anything, except my plants

    I got a 3" male krib two days ago. He is in a 50 gal with 2 med sized senegalus polypterus, 1 med sized ctenopoma and 1 smaller african butterfly fish. I feed them Hikari dried blood worms and these slow sinking cichlid crumbles. All the fish love these foods except for the krib. He chews on...

    Dwarf Puffer Tank!

    I have a 10gal dwarf puffer tank with 3 puffers and 1 oto. I have a GE plant & aquarium bulb (so 1.5 WPG) keep amazon sword, java fern, hornwort, anacharis, melon sword, moneywort, crypt wendtii, rotala indica in it. I know banana plants will do ok in low light.

    Stock my 10 gal (new idea to consider)

    I have a 10gal heavy plant dwarf puffer tank with 3 dwarfs and 1 oto. They are a lot of fun to watch... and they watch you watch them.

    Am I Overstocked?? (10 Gal)

    I had a male betta in a 20 gal alone and when I added two fire honey gouramis, the betta went nuts and tried biting through the plastic bag. I had to put him in a different tank. But from what I've read its hit or miss with gouramis and bettas since they are related.

    10 gallon with bettas

    Could I add two female bettas to a 10 gal tank with only a male betta in it? I don't have any place to put them if they aren't wanted but I'd like to add them if chances are they will do ok together.

    Jump starting a 10 gal.

    what you don't want is for the tank to become dependent on the bacteria in that second filter, which is going to consume part of the ammonia in the tank that the original filter used... so yeah, doing something to cause more ammonia to be produced, such as overfeeding, will work.

    I'm so happy with my tank now.

    otos are $2+ here in ohio...

    anyone elses pleco skittish/

    my 2" clown pleco doesn't like me approaching the tank quickly and he'll swim for cover. After awhile he'll come out and come up to the glass to look at me. Its the opposite with dwarf puffers who are constantly at the glass watching you... even from across the room.

    Dwarf Gouramis - Maybe Honeys?

    Mine looks like that to the extent that it has some of the same colors and its a gourami. My gourami is all orange/red/brown across its body with a white tail and a patch of white right under its mouth. The top of its head is the browner area and its bottom fin is a dark deep red. I'll get a...

    Dwarf Gouramis - Maybe Honeys?

    Well I'm about 98% sure they are flame/fire Honey Gouramis. I am also about 96% sure that one had internal parasites because it had white stringy poop for a week and now its dead. I didn't realize this was a bad thing until 2 days ago and I was planning on going out and getting meds but I...

    My New Dwarf Puffer(pics)

    I have 3 Dwarf Puffers in a planted 10 gal with 1 Otocinclus. They don't notice the Oto but they do push each other around when I drop blood worms in. When its not feeding time they tend to swim around together. Its really cool watching them hunt for snails.

    Dwarf Gouramis - Maybe Honeys?

    I'll take some pics. There is a 2" clown pleco & a 3" kuhli loach with them in the 20gal tank. The guy at the LFS told me they were a male/female pair.

    Dwarf Gouramis - Maybe Honeys?

    I recently (about a week ago) bought 2 dwarf gouramis that were labled as Honey Gouramis at the LFS. The guy there said they were a cross breed between pure honey gouramis and another type of dwarf gourami. He said the female pure honey gouramis are whitish/dull and the males are...

    Do Fish Sleep?

    One of my 10 gals has 2 kuhli loaches, 6 zebra danios and 1 oto in it. The loaches are always sleeping under rocks, the oto occasionally sleeps on plant leaves, but I've never seen the zebras stop moving... even at night.
