I bought a cl tank yesterday. Its a 46 gallon bowfront but the center brace is broken. Should this be a concern? The tank is dated 1999 on the bottom. Thinking of just offering it back on cl as a snake tank. It did come with a new filter and new bottom filter also-I don't need them. :(

Ok, need some serious training. I am getting a 55 gallon tank tomorrow that comes with a rena canister filter. I know nothing about canisters-except I heard they were good. I don't know anything about how to maintain them, how to clean them, how often to change, where is biological filter...etc...

No one but my buds here would appreciate how excited I am to report that I found a 55gal tank on craigslist for $125 with stand and running!! My husband amazingly said yes!! I called but no answer. The answering machine was a business so I may not hear from them until next week and then that is...

Ok, my 38 gallon finally cycled- added fish! I moved fish from my existing tank. This made room for the addition of 5 turquoise rainbows I picked up at Petsmart yesterday. Got them home, acclimated and started to watch them. They schooled together so beautifully last night and this morning I...

I have been wanting to add the neon dwarf rainbows to my list of schoals I want in my 38 gallon tank. I know I need about 6. As I have been looking for these on line I noticed they are not easily found or available at the lfs. As I was looking at the types of tetras I came across the congo tetra...

I need help with what to do with some plants I ordered. I got Pellia fern and they look like they are between a plastic grid? Do I take it out of the plastic grid or is it intended to grow through it? I also got marimo balls. Do they just float? I am a gardener outdoors but new to aquatic...

My tank was cycled and has been running since May. Now I am starting to see some algae in the tank. I have a tool to clean the glass. Do I just scrub it and then do a PWC? Also, my filter is getting kinda gunky and not flowing as I might like it to. I know I am not to change my filter monthly as...

I have been doing some research on these beautiful fish. I have a 38 gallon cycling now and am working on what to stock it with. I was thinking 6 or so. Any advice?

I purchased this tank 36X13X19 today from a private party. It has the fake oak trim around the outside and appears to be in great shape. I noticed that the top support (in middle of tank-holds front to back) seems "loose or stretched" not cracked or broken. Will this be ok when I fill it? Seems...

Hey experts! I need a little help. I have 3 Kissing gourami who I thought were getting along pretty well and challenging each other daily. They interlock their lips and shake each other. today I noticed that their mouths are all bloody-dark red to dark pink-when they are done. Neither of them...

My name is Carol. I am a nurse and have had fish since I was a young girl. I have had multiple tanks in the past but have just recently acquired a 36 gallon bow front and have started this tank fresh. I ordered each piece separately- added all the "starter" ingredients and currently have 6 fish...
