    Book Recommendations?

    Well Crepe thanks a lot! That is clearly going to be a great resource for getting my planted aquarium up and running! Looks like I won't need to be buying a book after all. Thank you for the suggestions though!

    Book Recommendations?

    I've had a tank with various Cichlids for about 8 years now. Now instead of one fish I would like to start a nice planted community aquarium. Does anyone have any book suggestions for a planted aquarium?

    Tin Foil Barb cloudy eye.

    One of my tin foil barbs has a clody eye. Could this be a result of getting bit in the eye by my bleekeri? Or is it some type of infection or fungus?

    The tank is 90 gallons and the last time I did a water change was 5 days ago. The oscar is about 6-7" What antibiotic would you recommend? The only place where I saw the slime was on the head. But, it does not look like any hole in the head I have seen, and the Bleekeri was tearing the oscar...

    Tiger Oscar not doing well.

    I have had this oscar for well over a year now without any problems. Well, my Bleekeri began to pick on him so I needed to put in a divider. The oscar is missing many scales, and a few of his fins are torn. Also the top of his head is severly beaten up (doesn't look like whole in the head more...

    Is Fishing Hypocritical?

    I was out on the water today reeling in stripped bass and blue fish left and right, and I couldn't help to feel a bit guilty. I keep fish in my home, yet I'm out on the water reeling them in. Is it painful for the fish to have a hook stuck in its mouth, do fish feel pain?! I imagine it can't be...

    Heavy Breathing Fish

    The tank has been setup for about a year and two months now. I have never had this problem before, the only thing I could think of was thast the light needed to be changed. I changed it, but the problem was still there. The water color was green to begin with, but as I did more and more water...

    Heavy Breathing Fish

    My tank was cloudy so I decdied to do a very large water change of 80%. Which didn't completly clear up the problem, I had this probelm for about two weeks now, and decided that was the last straw. I believe it was originaly caused by my florecent blub being shot. I went to the store and bought...

    Python!

    I do it while it is filling. About four seperate times. Pretty sure I over kill it, but its just declorinator and heavy metal w.e its called. It says it acts instantly, but I kind of doubt that. My fish have shown no adverse side affects to my method.

    Reef only no fish question.

    I was thinking somewhere around 10~20 gallons. I am speaking of the water quality however (sorry if I was misleading,) what you listed seems to take care of the solid things inside the tank.

    Python!

    I feel as if this wonder doesn't get the praise it deserves! I remember lugging 5 gallon buckets full of water from my kitchen to my den (about a 50 foot walk) and how back breaking the work is. So this ones your you Python! I've owned mine for about two years now and still ask myself how I...
