I just bought a pair of Black Mollies for my 55 gallon community tank. The other fish in the tank are Angels, Tetras (Serpa, Columbian, Emporer) swords and catfish. I was always under the impression that Mollies are midwater and bottom of the tank fish. For some reason these mollies stay right...

On all of my tanks I have Pool Filter Sand as a substrate. I'm happy with the PFS since it's easy to clean, looks good, inexpensive ($10 for 50 lbs), and the fish seem to like it. BUT................ I'm thinking about getting a 30 gallon long (30L x 12W x 16H) and using it mostly for tetras...

In the last few days I've found a few of my fish in the 55 gallon tank d.ead. They were 3 Angels (body size about a 1/2 $ size or slightly larger) and a Serpae Tetra. The only fish that I have noticed having aggressive tendencies towards the Angels and Serpae in the tank were the 2 Yoyo loaches...

I have Whisper hob filters in all of my tanks. Up until recently I was able to buy the LARGE size bio bags (unassembled) at a national retailer for $9 for 12 bags. The local stores would honor the on line price that this national retailer showed on line. All of a sudden, BOOM, the price on line...

OK, I've been strongly advised by members of this forum, among others, that I can not put 2 blue rams in my 20 gallon high that already has 2 good sized gold rams and a large Angel and a pleco in it. I wouldn't even think of putting the 2 blue rams in my African tank. That leaves my other 55...
