This is for my 29g I've had this angel for ~ 3 years. Her tank mates were ~6 Cardinal Tetras -6 Peppered Cories Since then, All the Tetras have gone away and there are ~ 2 cories left. She is fairly aggressive as in she will peck at the cories and chase them. Should I add more fish in...

So I was looking for an upgrade for my light. I currently have a 29g with a 20W, someone messages me and says that they have a 130W PowerCompact light and is going to let it go for 50 dollars O_O. I've never had a high WPG tank in my life. Should I jump on this? I only have Java Moss in there...

I just returned my red serpae tetras as they nipped at my angel far too much. They were VERY colorful though... I need recommendations? I want something that schools but are peaceful and hopefully my angel won't devour. I currently have in my 29g 1 koi angel 6 pepperer cories.

I have a 29g currently and was wondering if my koi angel will eat my RCS? I will have javamoss and some plants so the shrimp can hide... but I'm not sure if they will be eaten in the long run. The angel is currently about 2.5 inches large fin to fin...

My tank is finally cycled! I picked up 6 pepper cories for my 29g. I put them in and accimated them. They're just sitting around on the bottom. The thing is there are two group.. a group of 4 and a group of 2. Is this normal?

This is in regards of testing my water parameters... When I test for NitrITES I fill the tube... add the solution, it IMMEDIATELY turns purple and then 5 minutes later it will be blue saying nitrITES are zero. This happens with my ammonia test too. Should I be worried that when I first drop...

Hi guys, my cycle will probably be finishing in a week or so. I was wondering if any of you guys have had success with asking LFS to order fish for you. I'm in the Boston area and I want to find Cories... but a lot of places I check don't have them or they just have albino cories... Thanks

I just started fishless in my 20g long. My filter should be here in the next couple of days. I'm just wondering if it's ok to start without a filter? I added ammonia into it to bring it to about 5ppm. Just wanted to get a few days headstart because I'm very anxious to put in there!

I'm almost done piecing together my tank for my bedroom. I have a metal stand, a 20g long tank and I am going to order and aqua clear 50. Any tips on what I can use as a hood? I checked my LFS and the hood/light assembly is 70 dollars! You have GOT to be kidding... I just want a hood/ light with...

I'm looking at a 20g long to put on my dresser in my room and I was wondering if that would be too noisy? It should just be the pump and nothing else as I'm just planning to have some community fish in here. The other tank I have is a 10g hex which is good for nothing. Do any of you guys have a...

Hey guys! I'm wondering if I can just go into a home depot and ask for all of the wood parts that I will need? I am using the garf builder and just going to follow the guide like that. this will be my first DIY project so wish me luck... I wonder how much money i will save by doing this.

Hey all! I've had a 10g hex all the time and I'm moving up to a 30g standard size! I need some filter recommendations for it! HOB or canister is fine. the 10g hex has a betta and about a dozen ghost shrimp! Anything else anyone wants to add so I don't forget?

i'm planning on upgrading to a bigger FW tanks.. here are two options! http://boston.craigslist.org/pet/101574750.html or http://boston.craigslist.org/pet/101613949.html one of them is a 75 and the other is a 90 one is a wooden stand, the other is an iron one. 100 dollar difference between...

i have a 10g hex now and i'm itching to upgrade and just to use the 10g as a qt.... would to best and cheapest way for me to get a tank just to go to petco or something and buy a kit there? or are there online places that sell tank/stands as well? what size would you recommend me going up to? i...

hey all, my tank is up and running, but i've just had 3 neons die that were in there... so i kinda want to start all over, new substrate and plants, what works well in a 10g hex? i might want one or 2 fish max? what kinda fish don't get lonely and don't bite another one, i want a gourami, i know...

what is an example of a floating plant? i kidna want one cause ppl recommend it for my gourami i have, just wonder, thanks!

i have one dwarf gourami and one apple snail in there, i kinda want one or two more fish that can be by them selves and maybe a lil school or say 3-4 tetras or danios or something, what kinda fish can be "alone" and are small, remember this is a 10 gallon, thanks!

so i bought two dwarf gouramis to start my 10g hex and i have used bio spira and all. I've had them in for about 4 days and i only noticed it today, one of them seem to be more passive than the other and the "aggressive" one seems to always be chasing the other one around and trying to bite its...

wish me luck i have two dwarf gourami's in my 10g hex and over the next week i'm hoping the tank will start to begin cycling i'll be montoring every couple of days! hehe i'm thinking about tank mates for these two dwarfs! suggestions? maybe a little school of tetras? so exciting!

my 10G hex is finally ready!!! at first i wanted 6-7 cardinals and 3 corys but i went to 3 places [2 petcos] and they didn't have any... so my question is now... what other stuff can i get? i was looking @ glolites, but the just kinda just stood motionless or neons... but they're so common...

so this fishless cycle is DOING something... after like 2.5 months... my water parameters as of 10 minutes ago in my 10G is ammonia = 4-5 ppm nitrITE = 0 ppm nitrATE = 15-25 ppm what's going on and why do i have ammonia?

i've been trying to cycle this tank for about two months the first time i didn't feed it enough ammonia so the bacteria prolli died and this second time it was looking good i tested about 4 days ago and my nitrITES were on the rise and now i test today and i found out i had ZErO nitrites... i...

as many of you havce known... i started my fishless cycling until i saw nitrites and nitrates, but then i guess i didn't add enough ammonia each day to keep the bacteria fed and both these values ended up at zero. therefore i started again and added more ammonia this time using the same water...
