So....... Since I'm so computer illiterate, this is a test to see if I can upload with Photobucket from my desktop and then will try from my mobile device. The mobile device may take me some more time. If you hear lots of words of undersirable content, I've either dropped back 10 yards and...

So I've been doing a lot of homework and as the title says, I'm seeking what a proper size QT would be, what should be in it (LR-LS) and type of filtration for anything that will go into my soon to be upgraded (from 10-14 ish BioCube to 40b) currently housing a tiger pistol/goby pair and a few...

I've got a LFS near me that is strictly SW. Although I don't know much on the SW side of the hobby and am doing a lot of research, I went in with a couple loaded questions and gained their trust immediately. They gave the exact answers to the questions with no added bs or beating around the...

I've just found out that Glasscages and Mandalay Fish has burned to the ground. Here is the link. Dickson fire kills thousands of tropical fish Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium advice.

And the title says it all !! Over the winter, we took a dive to the other side. After trading some firewood to a good friend for a 10g nano, it was love. We got it setup in February and let it cycle for 2 months before doing anything. After it was sound, we added a a Ricordea. Then a...

For many years now, it has been bred into aquarists time and time again, all over the world, to NEVER USE SOAP !! Now I'll shed a little light on the subject for all to see. This is not exactly true. There are two brands that are not only SAFE, but WIDELY USED in day to day activities...

So it's my first attempt with SW. I chose the nano for two reasons. First was because of limited room and the second being I like a challenge since things can go from bad to worse pretty quickly. It's a previously used, (free) Oceanic Bio Cube 12 gal that I started this 9 weeks ago. Put in...

I have come to the conclusion through my 20 years experience, there are expert newbies everywhere. They seem to be popping out of the wood work more and more everyday. They can google more research in 3 months than anyone can "hands-on" learn in 20 years. They can have tanks cycled in under 10...

I've heard it's not a good idea to keep Discus in the same tank with the PE if the the PE is eating live shrimp. T or F? If so, to keep them together, what should I feed them since I can't set up another tank? Currently feeding brine shrimp an blood worms, both frozen.

Recently I have liquidated some stock from a 75 to other people wanting free fish. Gave away (11 in all) assorted Tetras. Currently it is still a little much (imo) that we have left. 8 Discus, 3 Angels, 1 Bala, 1 Glofish, 1 Ghost Cat, that will all stay as of now. Going are 1 Buenos Aires...

Found this place by accident and I'm so happy I did. Not exactly "new" to aquariums, but my last one was in junior high. My first "adult" was a 20 flat back hex given to me by a friend that was cleaning out old stuff. Got it going with some BH, and BP, Tetras and a couple Bala Sharks. Then...
