    Fluval food quality

    Normally I purchase Omega One, however they were out, I do not like the other brands they sell as I've read they use a lot of filler and cheap ingredients. I purchased Fluval Color Enhancing flakes. Does anyone know anything about their food? I know they make good equipment, which is why I gave...

    what is this on my goldfish

    Wow... Yep this is it, unfortunately this goldfish is so small, I would be afraid to even try removing this... Is there anything I can do to kill it? And how did this even get into my aquarium... Looks like Tetra makes a product called "Parasite Guard" that says it takes out Anchor Worms...

    where to find......

    It is a desktop app (based on .net 4.0). I've never had the need to do a mobile version as I prefer my desktop for most things. It uses SQLite to store the inputted information. I can release it if there is enough interest

    Moving Bed Filter?

    I can hide it pretty well, I am not worried about that, also I've seen other types of "canisters" used besides soda bottles. Do you have any idea how well they work?

    Moving Bed Filter?

    I've seen numerous videos on youtube praising them, how to make them etc. Are they really that great? I've read a lot comments saying that they are amazing, others saying they noticed nothing, those that noticed nothing people say they used the wrong media... Is anyone running one of these...

    Kissing Gourami - Chapped lips?

    Yeah, I asked another friend who does this for a living, 40PPM is not ideal, but not crazy high. But everyone has their opinion, which I respect :). Will do a water change. Thanks!

    I have 3 Kissing Gouramis in one of my 55 gallon takes with 4 Cory Cats and 2 Clown Loaches. The kissing fish are 4 - 5 inches and 1 of them appears like he / she has chapped lips. The water parameters are good. No nitrites, 7.6PH, 0 Ammonia and ~40 nitrates. None of the other fish are having...

    Recommendation for a digital thermometer?

    Does anyone have any recommendations for a good digital thermometer? The cheap petco zoomed one I have is off its rocker. Shows 83.4F when the good ol' fashioned one shows 76 - 78F. I've replaced the battery, no luck.

    I was just making sure it wasn't like some sort of beneficial bacteria growth.

    Marineland Penguin 350 shut itself off?

    Thankfully it has been running like a champ since. I emailed her and she said contact her if it does it again. Still not sure why it did that. And mine is completely silent aside from the water sounds.

    Marineland Penguin 350 shut itself off?

    This is a brand new filter, been running great for about 3 days straight, came home and did not hear the water from the wheels. I noticed it was completely shutoff.

    Bullied Gourami

    I have 4 blues in my 55 gallon with 2 kissing fish and 2 small bala sharks. There are also 7 tiger barbs. I've never had issues with aggression. Other than the tigers killing each other. Fish though are all different in their personalities.
