Welcome to Aquarium Advice! Sounds like a fun, lively household! :thumb:

Sorry for your loss- it happens so quickly! I had some fish die on me just recently because of a stupid mistake I made....it happens. :(

I don't know what it is but I just had to say that your black angelfish is really a beautiful fish! Hope he gets lookin better soon :)

I changed the water again and tested. Nitrites are down to 0ppm! Yayy! Nitrates were 10ppm. I'm not planning on adding any fish to this tank as it is somewhat crowded already, due to it being a temporary tank for them. I'm keeping them there while I do a fishless cycle on my new tank a...

Welcome to the forum! I'm newer here myself but am finding so much helpful info as well. Enjoy!:D

Welcome to AA and welcome to the hobby! This is a great place to find what I call "fish friends" and advice. :thumb:

Welcome to Aquarium Advice. This is a great site! :thumb:

Thanks for your reply. I did a water change this evening and retested the nitrites and they had gone down a bit. I am going to do another wc tomorrow. The rest of the fish seem really good though. I still think it's dropsy, especially after reading up on it a bit this evening. I read that...

Hi, I have a green striped swordtail that I am concerned about. I bought him and a pair of females a year and a half ago. I am concerned because he has slowly become more and more old looking. I thought that was all it was but today I noticed that he almost looks like he has dropsy! He is not...

Welcome! Glad you are delving deeper into the hobby.:thumb:

Welcome to Aquarium Advice! It's a great site to find the answers to your questions.

That's so exciting! I've never done a tank that big, but there are plenty of great people on here who can help you! Welcome!

Welcome! This is a great site, full of great articles, people and help!:)

I agree. Beautiful tanks. I really do like the second tank a lot though b/c it goes up higher into the tank. Just a neat layout. :)

Thanks for the advice everyone! I was actually thinking about trying to get some slate to put in...good to know that it will work well with angels! If I do an angelfish tank, plants I'm thinking about are amazon swordplants, some type of vallisneria, and maybe anubias, java moss and/or...

You're tank is beautiful!!! I love it! Anyhow, today I did a 50% water change on my 10 gal. and thought, thought and thought some more about how I'm going to set up the empty 55 gal that's in my kitchen right now! :fish2:

I am only a beginner but I just wanted to share a picture that I took at our local aquarium. It had beautiful discus and what I'm thinking were cardinal tetras...maybe neons...It was over a year ago but I did snap some pictures. It was by far my favorite setup I saw that day (and it's a big...

Hi, My very old 29 gallon Perfecto tank that I've had for over a year sprung a leak and I decided not to even try to fix it via resealing. Thankfully, someone just gave me a new tank. I thought it was 56 gallons but It's actually 55 gallons (I must've measured a little wrong when...

Welcome! I just joined this week as well. There is a wealth of info on this site! :thumb:

Welcome! I just joined this week too. This is a great site! Wow, your guppy is really big! I wish I could help but I haven't ever raised guppies myself. My dad did, but I was a kid then. I have swordtails, which are livebearers too but I don't know how similar their habits are to guppies...

Thanks so much! I'm looking forward to meeting new "fish" friends and gleaning much of the wisdom from more experienced people on this site.

Just wanted to say "hi" to everyone in this community. I have had an interest in fish keeping since I was about 10 and my dad brought a 29 gallon tank home and set it up with fish. I have had a 29 gallon for over a year (it's an old perfecto tank) stocked with about a dozen green striped...
