My 75 Gallon has been up and running with Peacocks and some hybrid babies for a couple years and doing well. I took on a rescue grouping of fish (black fin Tetras and an Orange and white goldfish) so I put them in my 40 G. I noticed the Tetras that are mixed with Serpas and Danios were getting...

I started this project a year or more ago with a craigslist tank and some work behind it. down to cutting the edge of the glass tops to fit it. The ONLY reason I got this tank is because I convinced the wife to allow me to do a tank themed for her, she agreed and instead of Tennessee Orange it...

I found this tank sitting on a yardsale table with a python hose filters decorations and a heater in it and got a yes when I offered $15 bucks.

I hear and do understand that Hybrids Like Mutts or Heinz 57 as we called them (dogs) took away from the pure bred, but some Mutts were found to be better in health because of the overbreeding or hereditary disease in pure bred's. Some Mutts were so much more loyal and worth keeping as any...

My Tank Boss that does not fight that I know of has suddenly came up with a bloated right eye, I put him in my 10 gallon Hopital tank and am giving him melafix and I did give a little Epson salt. I have done several water changes, any thing else I can do? His eye has not reduced any but he is...

I just got a 55g that was a salt water tank I cleaned it out with vinegar and water real well but noticed in one corner the seal goes from a black to a brown area thats withered a little. so far no leak from the area and its a rear corner of the tank. Should I be worried about this ???

I bought a 55 G. that was a SW tank yesterday. I intend on using it for freshwater Cichlids maybe Mbuna. SO my questions are how best to clean out the tank and can I flush the substrate and Rock that was in the SW to put it in my FW Mbuna tank? If so what methods do you all suggest to make this...

I got a good deal on Craigslist and went to pick up my new 55G tank last night. 55g tank with stand, filters, rock, crushed coral substrate and lids with two lights all for $80.00. When I get there and look at the tank I start wondering is it really a 55g because the 55gallon I have at home is...

Is there anything I should do specially? I have been squeezing the 1mm pellets (NLS) but alot of the very small pellets (dust almost) floats on the top.

I was rearranging my decorations rocks and when I was done could not find ole blue. at the end I found him smashed between two rocks. Geeze I feel really horrible.

I have 6 Peacocks and a BN pleco and generally just turn the tank light on for feeding and viewing. This is maybe a 1/2 hour or hour on long viewing days. my question is.... Is there a certain amount of time you should have your tank light on? Ive read about keeping it on too long but what...

IT seems that I have read about many who have Bristle nosed Plecos with thier African (Malwai) Cichlids. My LFS that has been pretty good so far (mom and pop not chain) told me to get a common and when it gets too big for my liking that I could trade out with him for a smaller one. He said they...

Ok ive got a gravel Vac for my 55 gal FW African Cichlid tank. My tank is on a stand and too high to dump a 5,10 or more gallon container of treated tap water into my tank. So is a pitcher and pouring in water the way to go or how do you all do this type of thing????

So other than rocks what type of Decorations do you like for Peacock Chichlids. Is anyone using or have an opinion on the Ceramic "Cichlid Rocks" are they more for breeding or good for everyday Tank?
