I have live plants so I can only have my light in for 8 hours a day. I like to view my fish so I’ve left it on longer and I had a algae issue. Is there any kind of light I can turn on after the 8 hours of light for my plants that won’t cause any issues so I can still view my fish ?

My mother has 3 of these fish and she wants to get rid of them. I want to take them but I can’t find much online about them. If anyone can answer a few questions about them for me I’d be truly great full. I have a 55 gallon tank with 7 Corydoras, would the barbs attack them? These barbs are...

I have a 29 gallon hex tank that is cycled and full of fish. I bought a 55 gallon recently to transfer my fish to. If I switch over all my media from the 29 to the 55 will it be instantly cycled ?

I’m not sure what I’m supposed to do about this. I’ve read I need a saltwater tank to transfer her to in order for the babies to survive. I do not have a cycled tank that is saltwater to do so. Or another tank in general for that matter. Will she be fine staying in the freshwater tank ? And she...

I had 4 of these guys. Recently one of them looked sick and wouldn’t eat. He is completely gone from my tank with no sign at all of dying. That being said while I did a water change this morning another one of them were dead on the bottom. All my other fish in the tank look great and very...

I hope he does some damage to this brown algae I have going on in my tank. He’s only about a inch right now just a little guy. I was planning on adding a couple amano shrimp and a mystery snail to help as well.

I have a 29 gallon hex. I have brown algae everywhere! It’s on the rock substrate, other rocks in the tank, on my ferns and even spots on the glass ! I have 4 peacock gobys and two Corydoras. Would a algae eating fish, like a plocostomus, be the simple solution to my problem ? Or do I need to...

I’m in week 3 of a no fish cycle. I have 4 different kinds of Java fern in my tank for a little over one week now. The water level in my 29 gallon tank has dropped about a inch and a half. Should I add water or just let it continue to cycle ? And if I add water can I leave tap water out for 24...
