Hi AA, I am back from about a two year hiatus. Big changes forced me out of the hobby for a couple of years due to a big move, career change, and welcoming a third human into our family! This forum helped me a bunch the first time around, even though I lurked a lot more than I would like to...

I currently have a 36 gallon bowfront tank that is a holding tank for cichlids. I need to get rid of these because I don't have the space necessary to upgrade tank size as they grow. I want to flip that tank into a FOWLR tank and need ideas for lighting. I do have a Marineland Double Brite LED...

We recently left for vacation and had a sitter for us who was willing to come feed our fish and do a small pwc while we are away. Last minute we were unable to reach her and had to run to Walmart as a last resort. I purchased the Wardley 3 and 7 day slow release feeders and was wondering if...

Tank is cycled and bare. Just 6 guppies some driftwood and some silk plants...(I know real plants are better but I know absolutely nothing about planted tanks and am pretty sure my bulb and substrate will not suffice.) Anyway, here is the list I want to add. 6 guppies (all male) 6 Julii Corys...

I recently bought 6 guppies for my 36 gallon bow front aquarium, all male fancy's according to my LFS. I'm fairly sure I have at least one female in the group as a couple are larger. I do know that males have a more colorful body and most of mine do. I am concerned because a few of my guppies...

Hey Everyone, Me and my girlfriend took our 9 month old daughter to the zoo and to our amazment she gravitated to the fish tanks and ignored the larger animals. This prompted us to look into getting her a tank of her own. We got her a small 2 gallon desktop to keep her interested and in the...
