I'm glad you told me that. I don't think my goldfish sees well - unless she is watching in the right direction when you drop the food, she doesn't find it. But I have noticed her going along the bottom of the tank eating. Thank you so much for all the information. I really appreciate it.

would little catfish help with the waste? Or is it the amonia?

my dog likes fish food too - she scouts the floor after feeding time hoping I've dropped some. Thanks for the web site - I'll try it. Phoenix - everyone keeps telling me that I WILL find a place in my small home for a larger tank - even though I don't think I can. Thanks for the advice. I...

Love your dog. You're right. Water quality will be an issue for other fish. I'm hoping pleco's are different. I have an 8" pleco in my 25 gal - he will be going to a relatives 50 gal soon. So as soon as my pleco outgrows the 10 gal - he could go in the 25 gal. If it's safe to put him in...

Since all indications tell me that I'm not going to be able to stabalize my 10 gal fw aquarium, I moved my mollies to the 25 gal tank and bought a red oranda goldfish. I've been gradually lowering the temperature a couple of degrees a day from 78 down to 68 and have moved one rough rock I had...

holy cow!

How big are my fish supposed to get? There seems to be SO much empty space in the tank, it seems strange that it could be too much soon. Barbara

Thank you all for the warm welcome. Tess, I'm in Lubbock 4 or 5 times a year and I love your lfs there. Scott - love your picture. Anne, you would love gardening in Texas. It was 82 and sunny today. Thanks to all. Nana Barbara

Hi. I'm from Odessa, Texas. Midway between Dallas and El Paso. I had an aquarium about 30 years ago. Never new about cycling and nitrates and nitrites, yikes. Can't believe any of my fish ever lived. I have two aquariums - a 10 gallon and a 25 gallon. Both fresh water. I've had the 10 gal...

Thanks guys. I'm using R/O because I don't drink the local water - very hard - leaves white gunk (lime?) on faucets, etc. Tastes nasty. Thought the R/O water would be better. I don't have room for a larger tank, so I guess I'll have to think about trading them in - but I'm already growing...

Hi. I'm very new at this. I inherited a very dirty 25 gal aquarium from a family member. It is about 4 yrs old. I have an 8" plecostemus(sp) a 3" clown loach, and two silver dollars. They all made the move from her house to mine. I've had the tank a wee. The chemistry was nasty. I've...
