I have searched the web trying to ID this fish, and thought I was decent at getting info, but this guy I can not ID. Please help me. I live in Northern California, and took this guy from a wild pond. I started out with 3 of them in a 100 gallon aquarium, but the larger one basically killed the...

I have a 100 gallon aquarium (acrylic) that was given to me. I have cleaned it up and santatized it with a bleach mixture. I have the choice between (2) HOB Emporer 400's (with a claimed pumping rate of 400 GPH ea x 2 = 800 GPH), or a wet/dry system with 6 gallons of bio-balls and a Little...

I was given a 100 gallon aquarium covered with coraline algea to the extreme. It was REALLY bad, and I had to remove it with vinegar. I then had to use the Nexus products (#2 and #3) to remove the resulting haze and minor scratches. It looks OK now, but I guess I should clean the Nexus...

OK, I am now ready to set up my new (used in salt water) tank. I have read previously (somewhere?) that I should treat EVERYTHING with bleach/water mixture first to disinfect it? Is this true? What should I do before starting up this used tank and adding fish? All input appreciated. Thanks...

Greetings. I am new here, and had some questions for the more experienced folks. I am setting up a (used) 100 gallon acrylic aquarium. I wanted to stock a fairly heavy fish load of catfish, shubunkins, carp, and other non-predator type fish. I have purchased (but not yet received) two...

Greetings, I am new to this Forum, and need advice badly. I just receiced (free) a 100 gallon acrylic aquarium, that has what the person called "Coralline" algea on it. I guess he had live coral that caused this build up. It's a real bad case, and no longer transparent! Does anyone know how...
