When I was a kid, 40 years ago, I remember seeing a tank full of some kind of tiny cories at a KMart. They always entranced me when my mom took me shopping with her. They were approx. 3/4in. or smaller. They were mainly white with some black markings. But the markings were variable and splotchy...

I posted this elsewhere but thought I might try here. I have a few extra blue, ghost, veil angelfish in my tank that I would like to rehome. If anybody is interested, PM me. I'm not asking for money, just a good home for them. I don't know sexes on any but 2 males. They're full grown. Not show...

I have been feeding it for a couple of years and my fish love it and are very healthy. My problem is this. What was once a few snails (mts I think) has become a massive overpopulation. The snails eat the Repashy faster than the fish can. I know some of the techniques for dealing with snails. But...

I have a few more angels than I need. Would like to rehome a few. They are blue ghost veils. Not show quality but healthy. Full grown. Pm me.

I hope this is the right place to ask. I'm trying to log in on the web page. Every time I enter my password and hit the "submit" button, my password disappears from the box, and the login fails. Any advice? I'm ok on the app. But need to get to the web page to access friend requests. Thanks.

Just wondering. :-)

I'm going to glue some fissidens fontanus to driftwood. Do I need to use tweezers to get just the stem in the glue? Should the root end be left free? Any advice would be appreciated! TIA!

I'm interested in buying some peacock, Singapore, or Taiwan moss. Or flame moss. Thanks!

Thanks for any info! :)

I have the corrugated fluval hoses. Is that something I should be cleaning? How do I do it? How often? Thanks so much! :)

Just noticing the app doing some odd things today. Anybody else?

My planted tank is still struggling, but doing better with ferts. But it just occurred to me that the fact that I use softened water may be affecting things. Opinions? Thanks!

I was feeding blanched peas and my halfbeak bit off more than she can chew! Lol. She tried and tried to swallow it, but eventually had to drop it. :)

I have some that look glittery but not quite pearly. Just wondering when they start to show? TIA!

http://www.bamaplants.com/ I just had a very positive experience with this place. Prices are good. Plants are healthy. A slight problem was addressed quickly and politely. Highly recommended!

So I've heard that fluorescent bulbs for planted tanks need replacing every year even though they still light up. Has anyone ever tested to see if they still grow plants well beyond a year? Can you start to see problems in your plants when it's time to replace them? I hate to throw away...

Could someone tell me how they act when they are pairing up? Thanks! :)

I brought home a peacock eel for my 55. It likes to hide in my plants but it stays pretty visible. So far it hasn't eaten, to my knowledge. I fed it bloodworms after lights out. And I could see that it was swimming in the area where I dumped them. But it just seems to swim against the glass. Any...

Hey all! I'm working on my 55gal., low tech, planted tank. I have a 48 inch, 2 bulb Aquatic Life T5HO. I just added a 48" T8 with a Reptisun bulb.(just because it was laying around) I have various sword, crypts, vals, Brazilian penneywort, water lillies, and some very unhealthy looking...

These are new plants from an online seller. Anyone know what the black growths on the backs of the leaves are? Hopefully not a parasite. :-/ TIA

Just bought 5 nerite snails for my 15gal freshwater tank. After I acclimated them and released them they cruised around the tank for a short while. Then they all climbed the glass and are resting under the rim above the water. Does this mean something is wrong? Water params are: pH 8, ammonia 0...

So, I have these Yoyo loaches in this tank. They love the giant rock thing and hide in it whenever I start messing with the tank or changing water. I have tried picking the thing up out of the water. But it's so intricate, they stay inside even though the water comes out. Any ideas? I thought I...

Just got some of this. And it came as a bunch of tiny fronds sandwiched between two pieces of screen, but not attached or rooted. One of them I sat on the substrate, and had to put gravel on top to weigh it down. The other piece I tried tying the tiny pieces to driftwood(tedious). Today, most of...

I Have read that when planting vals, you should only plant the roots in the substrate, not the crown. How do you do this as it seems to want to float and uproot? I also read that Flourish Excel will melt it. Any opinions on that? I have no co2. Thanks!

Ok, so I am getting some dime size angels. 10 to be exact. I know I can't keep them all in my 55. I plan on picking some to keep, and rehoming some. So do I pick 2 pairs? Or do I try to keep some who aren't paired, to keep the peace? I don't care about breeding. I just want some pretty angels...
