Hi all. I am debating on either adding 2 aq110's to my 90 gal Oscar tank along to replace my penguin 200s and work along side my aquatop500 OR going to a Sump. If I go to the sump I have no idea where to start. Help please!

Hello all! It's been a while since I have signed on but my tank has been doing very well. The Oscar and Acara are co-existing well (mostly cause the acara hides) and so is the Plecostomus. The plecostomus is so messy though I am thinking about selling him off and maybe added a few silver...

Howdy all. I am in the process of taking down my old saltwater 40b and am going to look into doing a planted tank. I got a really nice light for the coral I use to keep and was wondering if it would work for plants? I was leaning towards black sand, black out back, a good canister filter and...

So I have a nice deep blue 48" t5 double lamp and my bulbs are burning out. I can't buy these locally (48" 28w t5) and every bulb I get shipped comes broke!!!!

Ok folks....I have had this guppy in the hospital tank now for 3 weeks...First was treating for fin rot with melafix...Then he started to develop a white fungus at the base of the tail, so I switched to permafix. I went camping and my mother took care of him that weekend. I came home and his...

Ok. So I am getting a 3rd tank, 75gallons. Passed up on a 100 or maybe it was a 125, because I simply did not have the space to put it where I really wanted it. I am going to go with cichlids but I don't know how many or of what I could do in the 75. I want to go planted low tech with white sand...
