    Red tiger lotus

    I got a red tiger lotus in the mail today. A lot of the leaves were mush. So I trimmed them off an planted it. As the night passes leaves are falling off. I now have 4 leaves and will probably have zero by morning. So! My question is: if it looses all of it's leaves will it grow back or die off?

    Osmocote pot shots

    I was at the store today looking around and saw these. I know you can put osmocote in capsules and use as a fert, could something like this be used instead?

    Stick fertilizers

    Has anyone ever used the Jobes house plant stick fertilizer for their aquariums who have rams? A friend of mine told me to get Jobes stick fert from Walmart. But I worry about using them in a ram tank. Though I've seen them used in an angel tank.

    Rams in planted tank

    I have 2 ebr and 2 gbr in a planted tank. I'm worried about adding fertilizers cuz I don't wanna hurt the rams. QUESTION: will adding liquid fertilizer or fertilizer sticks to the tank harm my rams in any way?

    Will she spit or hold?

    Have a female kenyi by herself in a tank, she's been there for at least 6 months. Two days ago I noticed that she looked like she was holding and tumbling eggs. Sure enough, she stays hidden and won't eat. Now, I know they're not fertilized! So my question is: will she spit them out or will she...

    Warmer temps and fry

    Does raising your tank temp help the fry/juvies grow quicker? And if so, what temp should it be kept at? I have mine at 76* and some of the babies seem to be growing soooo incredibly slow.

    Cichlids and sharks

    I've got an mbuna tank and my mother wants to put a shark in it. Questions: 1. Can I put a shark in with mbuna? 2. If so, what kind? 3. Would putting a shark in with mbuna change the way I feed them? Thanks for any help y'all can provide.

    Frontosa egg drop

    I found my frontosa dropping eggs tonight. My fish are less than a year old. I've read and been told they won't start breeding till they are 2-3 years old. And the egg was ivory in color! I feel like a frantic momma. When do they really start breeding? I need advise from someone who's had them!!!
