    Please, help me deal with my tap water ammonia levels

    I recommend dosing to the full tank volume or even double dose it'll help. Also how long was the prepared water sitting for? I would do another water change at 50-75% first off. Second, do an ammonia test straight from the tap, and I would gas off a glass of water for 24hrs then test. Floating...

    I agree rivulatus are stunning, another one that is on my to keep list eventually.

    Those are all good looking fish you got there. Hybrids aren't really my cup of tea. Some do look great, I will admit that. Just no interest in keeping them. I have considered meeki, but I've kept thorichthys for 6 years now, time for a change. I have always liked the look of salvini, they're on...

    No not yet, I'm working on rehoming my thorichthys affinis first. I'm torn between herichthys Bartoni and andinoacara coeruleopunctatus. I'm still open to more ideas.

    Stacked 40b build

    Well things change. These 2 tanks are starting to turn into livebearer tanks. I'm hopes of selling what I breed. The bottom 40 has a nice guppy colony growing, I plan to add shrimp eventually.. The top I'm working on tearing it apart and restarting it as a full planted, swordtail tank. Pictures...

    After doing some heavy studying of my thorichthys affinis. My group of 6 is entirely male. A real bummer. So I'm thinking of switching gears. I've got a couple ideas. I could use some input. My tank is a unique size. It's a 75 gallon but it's 5 foot long by 18 wide by 16 tall. I wanted to...

    Least smelling cichlid food Please !

    Seems like there might be some other issues going on. How often are you cleaning filters? Also, when I asked about upgrading is because a 125g isn't nearly large enough for an arowana long-term.

    Least smelling cichlid food Please !

    In all honesty carbon isn't needed, except for when removing medications, or odor. Other wise useless Imo. What is your current stocking for your tank. Also are you planning to upgrade for your arowana.

    Well been a long time overdue for an update. The top 40b houses a lone notatus severum (I have 2 but the bigger one was thrashing the smaller one so I separated them). The bottom 40b is my fry and plant grow out tank...

    Stacked 40b build

    Update. So I've had this happen everytime I've done fishless cycling. My ph is soft right around 6.8. So during the nitrite spike my ph bottoms out to 6.0, so I tested an idea I had to help with this issue. I used baking soda to help replenish the alkalinity in the water and bring the ph up...
