Just some advice please, my pleco who I have had for over 14 years passed away and I am heart broken have had him forever. I am just wondering what I should do with him? Any advice? I really do not want to throw him in the garbage. I live in Canada so I cannot bury him. :( Thanks

Does anyone know if nutrafin clear fast expires after being opened? The expiration date on the bottom says Dec 20.

Ok so haven't been on here for a while but you guys always have great advice. I have a 60 gallon with only a large Angelfish, catfish and a 6 inch Leopard Pleco. Every time I introduce new fish and/or snails (last time I bought 3 gourami's) something either eats them or they just die. I have had...

Last night on Facebook a friend of a friend said he had a 6 inch Pleco in a 10 gallon tank I finally convinced him to let me come and get him today because the tank was way to small. So I have few questions prior to go getting him, hope you guys can help, Can I put him in a tank with another 5...

I have a 55 gallon, freshwater tank have had no problems before this, it has been running for more than 2 years. I have a 4 inch pleco, 2 Tetra, a dart and a molly. ( I posted earlier that the molly had a growth she has since died). So I picked up 3 more tetras and a strange looking needlefish...

Okay so my lone black Molly has developed this growth right by her eye, it is white and looks like it is mushy (not fuzzy) she is still eating but mostly lies on the bottom because I think the growth is to large to swim. So treated with Melafix and no change but now my pleco is not eating and...

My pleco has 2 white spots on him (underneath). None of my other fish have anything no spots, nothing. I have had ick before but did not look like this and showed up on my molly first. Any ideas?

Jut did a 30% water change yesterday and then tested my water and my amonia levels show nothing, but my nitrate is like at about 20, all other levels good. Thought maybe I tested wrong so did it again about 1/2 hour ago, amonia, ph and nitrite are good but nitrate is still around 20 which seems...

:(So did my regular weekly water change last night. Went out this morning got home and sad to see that my awesome Bala Shark had died, so quickly did a water test, ammonia-0, ph between 7-7.5, nitrite-below 0.1, Nitrate 5 to 10. I'm still kind of new to this so just want to check if the levels...

I'm still kind of a newbie so am hoping can get some questions answered (sorry if the questions are kind of dumb). Have had my 55 gallon running now for about 4 months, everything has been going good (had an issue with ick, but thanks to the great people on this site I cleared it up :). Anyways...

:confused: My 5 1/2 inch Pleco has been acting weird the last few days, usually he is hiding all the time in his big ship or rocks but he has been hanging onto the glass towards the top of the tank for a few days. he is still swimming around and sucking on everything. Is he hungry? My 55 gallon...

Okay I am still very new at this but I am pretty sure one of my darts is going to have babies: Behavior is odd-one dart is being VERY protective of the other dart, the one dart has a very distended belly (not sure if that is what it is called) my Bala shark has been bothering the one dart all...

I have an Aqua Tech 30-60 Filter for my 55 gallon tank, I recently bought this tank used and it was pretty clean but it has white hard deposits on the plastic parts of the filter and lights, it looks like some kind of hard water build up, what can I use to get it off, I tried using a toothbrush...

Thanks to the great advice I got from this site a while back I have finally obtained a 55 gallon for my ever growing Pleco. The tank I got was used (people used it to winter their goldfish from a pond). What do I have to do to get it ready for the transfer? clean it? how long do I leave set up...

Just moved my fish to a new 20 gallon tank, I have had fish before but had a small accident while transfering my pleco, he is rather large (about 4 to 5 inches) so didn't have a net big enough so I wa trying to coax him into a container to transfer him and he got caught in the net and I ended up...
