So while walking through my local thrift shop I came across these. A us aquarium inc, and an Amiracle acrylic wet dry style filter. I've never used or seen these before but they have attachments for HOB use but I can't find any information about these. Mainly how is the water supposed to enter...

I started a planted tank 8 months ago and everything has gone well. I've never had crypts before so I didn't really place them well in the beginning and I'd like to trim them but I'd also really like to not kill them. So how would I go about doing that? 40 breeder black sand over seachem...

I have rescaped my 20 long aquarium and have begun to add corals to the rock work, some zoas, xenia, and a green trumpet. My 3 year old ocellaris is having none of it. He tail smacks the xenia he flips the xoa frag. I watched him grab the coral plug in his mouth and swim upward to dislodge the...

Story time. I have a 20 long stocked with a clownfish cleaner shrimp and 3 nerite snails. The tank had long since battled bubble algae for over a year. I would remove rocks individually to get large clusters off the rockwork. I used a length of tubing and would siphon out bubble algae in the...

June of 2019 i had to move and instead of moving the old 13.5 fluval nano tank i took the opportunity for a slight upgrade to a 20 long with a similar filtration style. The new tank had the same brand of crushed coral substrate and went from a current orbit marine to the same brand newer model...

This mass has been moving around the plug and frag of my Duncan. Put the endoscope up to in and discovered it was a stringy tubular mass that seems to be able to move bit by bit. Will this grow and reproduce into something more is it harmless do I need to chuck the coral entirely? Sent from my...

I work at one of those red and blue big box stores and I've been keeping fish for about 18 years now. I have an alright knowledge base for the normal African cichlids we get under the "assorted" category but these two I've never come across before. I haven't been selling them until I know what...

So there are freshwater clams living in the small 100ish gallon pond in my backyard I didn't put them there and I didn't even know they were there until I found one today. My question is how do they fare in aquariums with sand substrate. Are they as invasive as snails? Do they do anything...

Alright so I have had a 20 long freshwater tank running for about 5 months and the inhabitants were 9 neon tetras 5 gold barbs a clown pleco and a bamboo shrimp. I change about a gallon a day just enough to get rip of pleco poo but still keep the water alive enough for my bamboo shrimp. So I...

So this weekend I may be getting my hands on a hundred and twenty gallong fish tank. 48x24x24. I can't stock anything too needy because I will have to rely on my parents to feed and do the occasional water change( they understand enough to not kill everything) so I was thinking a native species...

I told him I would like 5 gold barbs and he said oh you're in luck it seems we only have five left. I was confused because there were about 15 gold barbs swimming...

I have some driftwood gathered from a brackish river that has been removed from water for several years now I have read sights saying to submerge in boiling in water for a few days then submerge in normal water for a few more days. The sights seem to vary on weather or not to use normal boiling...
