Thank you, I won't panic ;) I have been spending a lot of time with my LFS and they have said the same. Here are things right now: I did another 5 gallon tap water change this morning. That brought my hardness up to 4kh and 2gh. My ph is sitting at about 7.2. My ammonia and nitrites have gone...

I finally bought a Kh/Gh test kit. I tested the water and found 3Kh and 2Gh. My guess is that 5 gallons of tap water produced those numbers. I just checked my Ph and its at 6.8. I have taken note of all three numbers and will check a few times a day. I also added a couple of rocks that are...

Hello everyone. I set up my 65g about a month ago. i wanted a South American planted tank with Angels, Gouramis, Rams, Neon tetras. I filled it with tap water and when I tested it, it was at 8.2. So after adding cycling fish I did 50% water changes every other day with RO water to bring the PH...

Thank you for the recommendation! I know there are a lot of "budget lights" out there, but I'm never sure what's good and what is just junk.

Hello everyone. I'm looking for recommendations for a light for my planted 65G. I know about the Fluval Plant light, but at $200.00, I'd like to see if there is anything else out there that may be a little more economical, but good for Brazilian Swords, Ferns and some other easy plants. thanks!

I did a 20% WC that evening, bring the nitrites down to between .25 and 0. Check it the next day (Saturday) and it was at zero. Checked it again today and it is still at zero. I was initially concerned about the yellow tails and will still probably take them back just to free up some bio-load...

I'm trying to pick out a reef light for my 29g. Its a standard 30" tank and will house various fish and coral, anemones, mushrooms, etc. I am looking at 2 different lights. one has 4 bulbs and the other 2. Obviously the one with 4 is more expensive. What do i really need for this reef tank...

I have cycled my 29g FOWLR and levels were all good with 2 small yellow tail damsels, 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites, 30 nitrates. I added a clown and a cardinal and checked my levels, my ammonia is still at 0 but my nitrites moved to .25! Grrrrrr!! What should i do? water change or just let it ride out...
