Okay so I have two green spotted puffers in a tank together...they get along just fine. It's actually as if they like each other honestly..they sleep right next to each other and don't have territory issues...it's great, especially considering I bought one a month apart from the other...

This is the day I waited for.....I think my cycle is done. I've had no ammonia and high nitrite for a while now....and today I tested and BAM....no nitrite. So I go ahead and test nitrate and there is some, FINALLY. So what do I do now...anything? The nitrate count is about 5-10 ppm. And...

So I have some really young green spotted puffer fish in my tank currently and am planning on converting it to a marine tank (they love longer apparently in marine conditions)....so my question is, WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!!? I've only had this freshwater tank for about a month and a half, maybe 2...

Okay...so I've been trying to cycle with a fish in my tank as my ammonia source...right now I have a pH of 7.6, ammonia of 0, nitrite of 2-5 ppm, and nitrate of 0. It's been like this for about 2 weeks now...no ammonia levels, always nitrite, and still no nitrate. I just do water changes once...

Okay so I've been testing every day....I have ammonia and nitrite everyday so I've been doing water changes seeing as I am doing fish-in cycling. I keep testing for nitrates and none show but for the first time when I left my 0-nitrate test tube over night I woke up and it showed orange...which...

Just got my tank fully stocked! Gonna add another puffer eventually and possibly try out some tiny neon tetras to see if my puffer will tolerate them. Anyways...! EDIT: my first tank btw.

Okay so I just did a test of everything and my pH is at about 7.2, my ammonia is at .5 ppm, my nitrite is between 1 and 2 ppm, and my nitrates are at 0. What do I do now...doing fish-in cycling. I want to do whats best for the fish while still building bacteria. Water change..? If so how...

I have a little dwarf puffer...probably the coolest fish I've ever had. It's face is so cool and it always comes to the glass when I'm close by to see what I'm doing and it goes to the bottom and swims into my airstone and lets the bubbles push him to the top and keeps doing it...anyways. I...

I have a Dwarf Puffer in my 10 gallon tank and I plan on adding one more. There's a picture attached of what my tank looks like currently but what I need to know is what types of live plants I should add? I read that they like a lot of stuff in the tank because they're intelligent and like to...

I just bought a 10 gallon tank and set it up yesterday. I rinsed all the decor and gravel thoroughly..along with the heater. I have a filter, heater, air pump with air stone, fake plant, rock, rock formation, and a small house in my tank. My question is: why did it turn cloudy overnight...it...

I posted a recent topic about bubbles on my tank wall after setting it up...those have disappeared over night. I have a different problem though. I bought a 10 gallon tank that has a top with a light, a rock, a rock formation, a fake plant, a house decoration, a 50w heater, a filter, and an air...

Okay, so my family had a tank and we bought a fish from meijer to add to it and BAM...an ich outbreak. The few fish died and I'm left with an african dwarf frog and a new tank. I did EVERYTHING right with this tank to make sure it was started up good with no cloudiness/good bacteria. I havent...

Hi, I just got my first tank and I have a 50w heater set at about 78 F. I also have a filter and a pump with an air stone set up. Along with that I have a rock, a rock formation, a plant, and squidward's house and decorations. My question is, why are all these bubbles on the front/side of my...
