Hello everyone, I have a bristlenose pleco who has recently (last 24 hours) developed two new spots towards his tail. They are larger than the rest of the spots on his body and I dont think the picture illustrates the difference in color. But the spots are definitely lighter in color than the...

Once the sand is placed, tank filled with water, and water is clear: How would you level the sand to the the wanted leveling, without clouding the water really bad?

...lol OK, so I know where this discussion is heading (hopefully there will be some kind of discussion lol). I see this a ton amongst the internet, "They will eventually kill each other, they have been bred for generations to be that way, etc." Is it not even worth trying? I feel as if it is...

:) Thanks again Smitty

Yeah.... I think I overreacted big tiiiiime lol. I was scared to death, omg. I felt like I was going to lose my fishies :( Everything is good now, and my fish are acting like nothing ever even happened. I appreciate the responses. Looking back on it now, I feel kind of stupid. Maybe my thinking...

Sure, as of right now, I have tested the water for its pH level and it is really dark blue which is a lot darker than the 7.8 of the kit test chart. My objective would be to get it to at least a somewhat similar shade of the 7.8. I guess you can say I wanted to try this out because it was...

I am really scared, I have had my 25 gallon tank for a while now and I have a few cories, black neon tetras, bristle nose. I wanted to add an air pump and stone to the water and I did so. The air stone was not working to well so I read up on it. One article I read earlier tonight said to blow...

That is awesome, I was thinking about getting a black background for my tank really soon lol. shhhweet

Ahhh see, that what I was thinking. Adding 1 tablet per 10 gallons will correct pH. But thats about all its says lol ( I just want to be extra sure, ya know? ). Oh well, thanks bro.

I have two kits and I understand how to use one for the most part. It is actually pretty cool. You just measure the water in the test tube and add the test chemical and so forth. Here is the first test kit that I feel I understand for the most part: API pH Test & Adjuster Kit (includes pH up &...

Pictures uploaded to the first post. Thanks for the replies! So far, they seem pretty energetic but they are sure pretty to look at. That would be pretty cool to witness. So far mine have been staying really close to the bristlenose :P

I used to own neon tetras but I can now proudly say I own black neon tetras. Today I purchased six of them and I must say, even though I love the blueish neon tetras, the black are simply magnificent! I might just have to get some more lol! Anyway, I was just wondering if you had any specific...

Hello Everyone, I am 21 years old and I live in the Midwest. I hope to speak to many of you throughout our times here on the forums!

Ahhh, epic! I love it lol.

Niiiice, it seems like a very good way about doing it. Makes me even more excited. Like the topic creator, I think I will go with white sand. I have many dark colored structures, trees, etc., and I think white or a very soft and light color would be great.

Thats what I was thinking, maybe if I were to just be quick, precise, and efficient, in the way I go about doing it, I can safely make that change. It will definitely be something I am going to do in the next few weeks. :)

How difficult would a tank change from gravel to sand be if you had no other tanks to put the fish in? Is there a different way about doing this? I would love to able to switch over to sand like my betta tank but I have a few good bags of gravel in the tank I want to change lol.

:) Thank you for the response. So LFS actually buy!? That is cool. I think it is a verrry cool concept that I might dabble in, in the future. This question came to mind after watching a great YouTube channel (YouTube - Jazzy78910's Channel) He had some interesting breeding videos and his...

There are some obvious answers to this question of course. :) Some reasons on a larger scale would be to keep a species alive or sell them. But, I feel as if there are a lot of owners who do not large tanks and I am unsure of what they do with the newly born fish. Can someone please help me...

Aqueon » Mini Bow? 1 | Products Hello everyone, Above is the page that shows one of my tanks that I currently own. It is actually a nice little tank that I am kind of unsure on which direction I want to head with it. I was wondering if there was a way I could find a 7 Watt Incandescent Bulb...

I was at Petco yesterday and seen Bettas that I have never even heard of or seen until then. "King Betta". I was like.. Whoa.. lol. Anyway, I am really excited about purchasing one especially since I got the go ahead from the GF lol. The Betta seemed huuuuge and there is a very decent selection...

Thanks for the response. I am glad to hear that you have similar ones that act the same. I also have one anubias plant that was planted two days ago. Very cool :)

Very exciting! I do have a few structures for them to hide under so that is a good thing. I definitely agree though, very entertaining fish lol :)

Ok well then that is good that there is not a threat of some sort lol! My tank is 25-27 gallons, I can not remember exactly. It is a Marineland Cube something something lol. Thanks a lot!
