While I would like to start with plain glass tank and customize it myself I live in a 1 bedroom apartment so space is limited. I have only found 1 tank other than an AIO with the proper dimensions for the area I have. I am looking at the JBJ Nano Cube tanks because Drs Foster and Smith have...

I went into my LFS to get a rock to help seed my dry rock in my 16g bowfront. I found these two pieces that I liked. Looked around the store a little bit and saw that they had the Aqueon Evolve 4 on sale. I have always wanted one of these little tanks and i thought the 2 rocks I picked out...

Got this frag a couple weeks ago but I have no idea what it is. This is posing a problem for me because I don't know where to put it. I have tried a few locations and it seems to like it a little better in this lower flow/light area but it still has not opened fully.

I have looked a little bit on the net and found it for sale in a few places. Why is it so expensive? $30 for a baseball size piece seems a bit far fetched to me. Is this normal? Anyone know where I can get it cheaper?

I decided I wanted to do a single larger fish in my 60g. I have narrowed it down to the Dempsey and the Green Terror but they are both so pretty I can't decide. I wish I could have both...maybe someday. I will be starting with a juvenile. I am leaning towards the dempsey, when I first saw one...

Well this tank started as a freshwater Betta tank with a few Otos and a school of corys. Then I decided to go saltwater with it and got a Clown and Goby. They are now in my 20 long reef setup and I filled this thing back up with freshwater and threw in some stuff I had laying around. It looks ok...

I would like to get this skimmer for my 20 long but my tank is underneath a soffit. I have 6.5" from the top frame of my tank to the ceiling. I was hoping someone could measure their skimmer height from the top frame of their tank to the top of the collection cup. I also need a measurement for...

I now absolutely hate peppermint shrimp and will be catching these little bastards tomorrow and taking them to my LFS. Yes they are Peppermints and not Camels. Here is what they did Is there any saving this frag? The head in the middle is toast, the one on the left side has a little bite taken...

I recently picked up a 20 long during the dollar per gallon sale. Currently I have a 16g bowfront FOWLR tank that I will be replacing. The options for the 16 just weren't there and the small footprint didn't help in the rock scape department. I am using an Aquaclear 70 and building a refugium...

I currently have a 16g bowfront FOWLR tank and I have decided to ditch it in favor of a 20 long. I am having trouble picking a light fixture. So far the two that I keep seeing are the Coralife 30 inch 4 lamp Coralife Lunar Aqualight T5 Lighting Fixture Coralife Lunar Aqualight T5 Light Fixture...

Im just curious how long should a tank for a single Oscar be? I am assuming a long tank would be preferable over a tall.

So I have a 16g bowfront aquarium that is setup as a FOWLR tank right now. I have a fluval 205 canister running on it right now. I have recently been reading that canister can become nitrate factories. I don't exactly understand why this is. Is it because debris builds up on the sponges and...

I got this Tetra 10g starter kit with LED lighting for pretty cheap. I am going to be getting about 4 neolamprogous multifaciatus aka multis. Planning on doing 1 male and 3 females. I would like to get some breeding going. The fish are pretty uncommon in my area. Im getting about 20 escargot...

I just picked up one of these as supplemental filtration for my 55 gallon cichlid tank. I had an Aqueon quiet flow 10 on one of my first tanks. It worked really well for me and was absolutely silent. I got the 55/75 version because it is quite a bargain. $35 for 400 gph of mechanical filtration...

I am in the process of doing a 56g column build right now. You can check out my build thread here : http://www.aquariumadvice.com/forums/f70/my-56g-column-build-241287.html#post2276928 The stock I am looking at right now is this: 4x Pseudotropheus Socolofi 4x Pseudotropheus Acei and either 4x...

I woke up today to my featherduster in a different place than it has been for the past month. Normally it is standing upright in front of this rock. Now it looks like it fell over. Should I be worried? It is still open. Does it want to be here or should I move it back? Ammonia:0 Nitrite:0...

I picked up a new Marineland 56 gallon column tank about a week ago at Petsmart. It came with the stand, glass top, and a 24" flouro strip light. I got it on sale for $225. I tried to find one on craigslist for cheaper but didn't have any luck. The sale was only for 4 days so I had to make a...

Does taotronics make an LED kit that would be suitable for my 16g tank? If not can you recommend another LED kit that won't break the bank and can be used for corals. I am totally clueless when it comes to lighting. I don't know what corals I would want either but Id like to get lighting that...

I just got my Aquaclear 50 filter today and installed it on my tank. Im using it as supplemental filtration to my Cascade 1000 canister on my 55g Cichlid tank. So far I am very happy. This thing is dead silent. Im thinking that I may end up using it stuffed with biomax as strictly biological...

I have a 16g tank with a 50/50 18watt T8 bulb. The tank is about 16" tall. Would I be able to house any mushrooms with my weak lighting?

Was changing the water on my cichlid tank and my jewel cichlid named speckles came up to check out what was going on. He was curious about my arm. He then proceeded to bite it. That little buggers got some teeth on him!

I currently have a thriving mbuna tank and I have decided I would like to give SA/CA cichlids a go. I just purchased a 56g Marineland column tank. Not ideal I know but it is the largest tank I can fit in the space that I have. The dimensions are 30" W x 24" T x 18" D. I will be running a Cascade...
