I'd love some ideas of what I could add to this 72g. I love my Gourami but I find the tank boring to look at. Needs some color :-) Any thoughts/ideas? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I'm blown away by all the pics I'm seeing on Instagram of fish laying in the palms of their owners while the owners take pictures of them. Am I wrong in thinking this is horrible for the fish?? Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

Does anyone know why this guppy is shadowing another guppy? He's glued to him. He's not attacking or being aggressive... Just being an idiot. Lol. http://youtu.be/HU2kuG9hZc0 Thoughts? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Hey all I just moved from a 29G to a 72G Bowfront :-) I don't know who's happier... me or my fish. They are loving this! I was wondering if anyone has any best practice advice based on experiences with large tanks such as this? Here's what I've learned so far in the 24 hours since it's been...

We have a single female Krib who has become bloated, faded and lethargic resting on the bottom. She used to have a female friend who passed away naturally a month ago. She's in a community tank and has gotten along very well for 2 years with our Rummy's, Gouramis and Rasbora. She's always...

This is really weird. I've only lost 2 fish in the last 6 months, however both of them completely disappeared. I track my tanks everyday making sure each fish is okay, et cetera however twice fish have just disappeared and I can't find a body or anything anywhere. Both times they were smaller...

I hate to say this, but I'm bored with my tank. I have a 29 gallon community tank, with some really nice fish, but after six months I'm just bored. I still love fish keeping – I just want to make it exciting again. Any ideas? :-)

Does this look like my gourami are breeding or fighting? Lol

Ok I give! ;-) I have to pull 6 tetras out of my 30 gallon tank, which is also stocked with Rasboras, and a few others. Needless to say this has been a nightmare. I don't want to stress out them or the others by CHASING them one at a time with a net. And they are FAST little buggers. Is there...

Can anyone tell me what type of algae this is? It's only on this fake plant, and a bit on the rim of one decoration in my tank. (So far ;-) Gavin

I have a 10G tank with 4 female and 3 male platies, and two male fancy guppies. One of the male platies is a real (pardon my French) *******! He's constantly charging at the other fish - male OR female. I have a 29 gallon community tank with tetras, harlequin Rasboras, and Moonlight...

I have just inherited an Albino Cory. Im worried My gravel is too coarse for him. I'm going to put a layer of smooth gravel down on top. Can anyone see any potential issues with this? Thanks!

I have a Penguin 100 HOB filter on a 10 gallon tank. if I raise the water level up to the bottom of the outflow tray, the water ends up looking hazy. I've heard this is caused by microscopic bubbles. if I lower the water line, the flow is too much for the fish and too loud. And of course the...

I have a 29 gallon show tank which is stocked with: 2 Kribenses 8 Harlequin Rasbora 2 Moonlight gouramis (2 inch each) They are all getting along really well. I'm thinking of moving my 7 Rumy Nose Tetras from their 10 gallon to the 29 to take the load off the 10g. Would love some opinions...

I have a 10 gallon tank with 7 tetras, 2 guppies and 3 ADFs. It was fully cycled before I added them a month ago. Water tests were great. Over the past week ammonia has been building up despite water changes. It's only at around .25 but I'm concerned. There are nitrates and no nitrites...

My pair of Kribs are almost ready to breed. I'm wondering if this looks like a good cave/area of the tank for them? Looking forward to thoughts! Gavin

I'm not sure if this is FIN/Tail ROT - or an aggressive fish biting at him. Can I get some opinions? :-) Thank so much!

I just read a few articles on water changes and aquarium maintenance. One of the articles recommend removing all fake plants and decorations to be cleaned regularly. I have a lot of fake plants and large decorations And I can't imagine removing them every time I clean the tank. I've got them...

I'm hoping to breed Kribensis. I bought two awesome fish today who have really taken to their new home. I'm pretty sure these are MALE and FEMALE, and was hoping someone might confirm for me? Thanks!

I have two ADFs in a 2.5 gallon tank. I bought a new 10 gallon to replace it. (Won't be using the 2.5 anymore). What's the best thing to do with the frogs while I'm setting up the new tank and moving the substrate/filter media from the old to te new?

I have an established 30 gallon tank, and just purchased a new 10 gallon tank. Both tanks are using HOB filters. I'm running the new filter beside the old filter on the 30 gallon tank. How long should I keep the new filter on the 30 gallon in order to be sure it's fully seeded?

Is it recommended to use aquarium salt in a freshwater community tank in general - or only for specific reasons such as illness, etc? I'm reading conflicting opinions. Hack

I'm considering adding A pair of Kribs to my 29g tank Currently there are 8 Harlequin Rasbora and a couple of fancy guppies. I know Kribs CAN be aggressive when breeding. Does anyone have experience with this combo?

I fed my Harlequin Rasboras frozen bloodworms today. Well... I tried... I soaked them in tank water for 30 seconds and then gently poured them into the tank. They sank in 15 seconds and ended up in the plants. Almost no one got any. How can I endure they get Esten and don't just dink and...

I'm not sure what to do. My 30 gallon tank is at 85° because of the heat. We have no air conditioning here. Is there anything I can do to protect the fish?
