    What kind of pleco is this?

    Picked up this guy from feeder's supply today. They only said it was Leporacanthicus and I would assume it would be L. galaxias, but wanted to see what you all thought.

    Lots of roots?

    My stem plants seem to be sending out tons of roots from a lot the leaf sections. Is this normal or does it mean something? Limnophila aromatica, dwarf baby tears, anacharis, water sprite are all doing it.

    Planting plants

    Some of the plants I just bought from my LFS came in a small plastic pot with some green spongy material in it, kind of like what a moss ball feels like. Should I try to remove as much of this green stuff as I can or just plant it down into the ground too?

    Freshwater and DSB

    Has anyone here tried doing a deep sand bed in their freshwater tank? I was reading about them and it really interests me, but it seems that there is just not a lot of information about it for freshwater.

    CO2 with air?

    We have an air pump running 2 airstones that we like for decorative purposes and I was looking to switching over to a planted tank and would like to run CO2 so that it opens up the plants I could keep. So I was wondering, if it would be possible to run enough CO2 through one airstone and air...

    Driftwood plants?

    I was thinking of trying to add some real plants to my tank. Are there any good plants to attach to driftwood that don't take too much extra care? Or any kinda billowy/grassy type plant that would cover the driftwood?

    Is this something I should be worried about?

    Noticed on one of my mollies today, a small white circle on her tailfin. Is this something I should be worried about or is it just nothing? The attached pictures are the best I can get right now

    Would this be overstocked?

    Was looking at fish again today, and was wondering how overstocked this would be...I highly doubt it would be physically overstocked, I am more worried about bioload overstocked, but I would be able to do more frequent tank maintenance if need be, as long as it wouldn't involve cleaning the tank...

    Hi, new to fish keeping and to the boards. We bought a 55 gal tank the other day and our stand should be here tomorrow. I wanted to ask your opinions on our fish choices. We have plenty of time to finalize it since the cycling should take a while, but it's always good to plan ahead. We were...
