6 gallon fluval edge with a pirate theme. So far we only have 3 gold serpae tetras.

Mine is a moot point now. Went to the store to get them food and when I came back, they all had passed :'(

My platy is giving birth right now and I am over-the-moon excited that I get to watch. Unfortunately, there is no way for me to keep the fry because our community tank is full. Also, this the first time I've ever had fry and I don't know what to do to keep them healthy! Any suggestions?

Wow! Good call!!!

It is a milky white

We have a 20-long that has been running for about 2.5 months. We cycled with blue danios for 6 weeks before getting our "real fish". Now we have 8 platys, 4 cory cats, and 3 cardinal tetras that have been there for about 4 weeks. We have a flourescant bulb that is on a 12-hr timer and we have 3...

How is she doing?

I have a Platy that has also been pregnant a loooong time. I don't really know what I'm doing, so, those of you who have had successful fry births: HELP!!!! I just put her in a breeding box today, and I'm worried that I either put her in too soon, or that I might have over stressed her. I have...

We've increased the temp from 78 to 80 farenheit. We're a little reluctant to go higher at the moment

So, I know that we have an outbreak of Ich in our tank and we just started treatment last night. The fish have seemingly been tolerating the Rid-Ich Plus fairly well, but one of my Cories has been acting a little off. I was startled to find him floating, belly up, at the top of the tank (and I...

I'm sorry to hear about your pleco. :(

As opposed to buying new fish at petsmart or a generic pet store you should buy them at the aquarium store...they'll be better at not selling you contaminated fish.

First of all, I would suggest removing tbhe betta to a seperate tank, as they are usually aggresive. Secondly, to address the ich problem, try to find a local aquarium store for both meds and replacement fish. Generic pet stores are not very well trained in fish maitenance. (If anything, they...

I have 8 platys (4m, 4f -not a good ratio, I know...working on that) one of the females is very pregnant. Is it typical for a male to "defend" a pregnant female? One of our males is constantly at her side, he leaves her alone, but he chases off any other fish (male or female) that gets near her...

So, apparently, disaster struck around 2am this morning. We had a power outage. I woke up around 4:30 and noticed that the filter wasn' pulling water, but it had been running dry for 2 hrs. It took another hour before the motor cooled down enough to start running again. Any advice on how to...

In the interest of keeping you updated: I was dumb enough to name her even though I was concerned. River passed away this morning.

Yes, I just can't remember what it is. We started with 1 bunch and it grew so quickly, that we now have 4 bunches (that probably need clipping soon)

I am, in fact, a child of the early 80's. However, I must admit that my husband came up with Cory and Tetra names. (Child of the 70's)

Our male Platys are posturing for "king of the lab"...while it's amusing to watch, I'm afraid we're going to have to rethink them :( So far I've only been able to sex 3 of our 6 platys (2m, 1f) and I'm concerned the store gave us the wrong ratio. Any thoughts?

I'm actually not sure what the ratio is, but I'm fairly certain I have a few females
