    Question on PWC's

    when you change the water using a hose, it puts in water with the chlorine. How do you add the chlorine remover and add the salt to the water?

    Ammonia doesn't grow. It's the waste by product from fish waste, food waste etc,,,

    Help with fishless cycle INSANITY!

    If the ph gets dropped by the buffers being used up during the change from ammonia to nitrite to nitrate.... What will stop this from happening while I have fish as this cycle will be constantly going on?

    Help with fishless cycle INSANITY!

    I have a 46g tank. I started a fishless cycle over a month ago. I have sand, rocks, fake plants, one java fern and one Anubis plant. I added 3/4 teaspoon of salt per 10 gallons... My tap and tank Ph is 8.1...... The ammonia went down and now my nitrites have been going down. My nitrates are off...

    Red Tailed Barracuda experience

    Talvari... I had it for almost 2 years, it was fine and healthy when I had to give it away to a friend because I moved to another state. He had it for a while and said he gave it away when his girlfriend moved in to get different fish.

    Red Tailed Barracuda experience

    Had one years ago and loved it! I had it in a 10g tank. I didn't know anything about aquariums then and still don't. I just came across a 46g bow front setup as a trade for a guitar. I traded because the thought of getting another barracuda excited me. Everybody is saying the tank is too small...

    Penguin bio-wheel 350

    He filter sits on the back of the tank. As it sits, it is not level and the tube I have that extends half way down the tank is about 2 inches off the back of the tank. QUESTION: Should I put some cardboard or something behind the filter where the bottom touches the outside of the tank, hence...

    Heater good enough?

    Have a 46g now front tank. I need the temp between 72-82deg. I have a Jäger 100w submersible heater. Will that be enough?

    Low light?

    What do you mean by garlic? Starve them for 2 days and then feed them a clove of Garlic?

    Low light?

    I thought that it was REALLY hard to get them to eat anything but live fish?

    Low light?

    No idea what it came with for a bulb. I can always buy another one. How long before the red tails outgrow the tank?

    Low light?

    I'm just starting a tank. It's a 46g bow front tank. I have a nice rock and I'm getting a centerpiece drift wood. I have a penguin 350 bio-wheel filter and no air. I don't plan on putting any air in either. My main fish will be 2 red tailed Barracuda. The rest doesn't matter to me. Whatever...

    My 1st tank..46g Bowfront

    I actually had a single barracuda years ago. I had it in a 10 gallon tank. It did fine until I had to move and give it away. It only grew to about 4" but that didn't bother me. I figured with a 46g, they would get bigger. Maybe I'll just get 2 then.

    My 1st tank..46g Bowfront

    I want 2-3 Redtailed Barracuda. Other then that, just some schooling fish and algie cleaners. Not sure of my background yet but I'm thinking black sand, a large centerpiece driftwood, a nice rock that I have and a few tall plants in the back. I have a Penguin bio-wheel 350 and jager 100w heater...

    Just got a 46G bowfront.

    Just got a 46g bowfront tank. My filter will be the Penguin bio-wheel 350. I'm going to get 2 or 3 Freshwater Redtailed barracuda. I'll probably put those last . I'll start with a couple catfish to help clean the tank and slowly add other fish. Who here has these type of Barracuda and could you...

    Help!

    That makes sense. I'll be returning mine. Maybe if I read the no-fish cycle 20 or 30 times, it won't seem as bad...
