    New to cichlids looking for advice

    I currently have an empty 75gal with 2 ac 110s on it. I'd like to get into cichlids, preferably jack Dempseys. So my questions are how many can I have (I was told the more the better but I'm sure there's a max) and what other cichlids can go with them? Any other advice would be appreciated as...

    Aquaclear/fluval 110 hob

    I just bought another 110 for my tank but it's making a weird grinding/buzzing noise. My other one is just fine and as quiet as can be, anyone have any simple fixes to stop the annoying noise it's making? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Angel issue

    Why would my male angel be terrorizing my female? He constantly nips at her and chases her everywhere to the point where she will hide at the bottom of the tank and in pots. Doesn't happen all the time but he's been doing it pretty regularly now. Those are the only 2 angels I have in the tank...

    Tips on keeping Aquaclear filter media down

    I have 2 ac filters and for some reason the media like to rise inside making the ceramic part rise so much it's then above the water level. The sponge and the carbon pads are the only things submerged. The whole grey basket itself rises inside the filter housing. Any tips on keeping them down...

    Filter and purigen questions

    I have a few questions. I'm thinking about adding another filter to my tank, so is it bad or counter productive to have 3 filters? Right now I have 2, a Eheim 2213 canister and a ac 110 on a 75 gal. My tank isn't as clear as I'd ok it to be and it smells all the time. I was thinking about adding...

    Questions about my new set up

    So I just started setting up my new 75 gal and I have questions about my filters. I'm running a ac 110 and a eheim 2213 canister, I have them set up on opposite ends of the tank. Are they to far apart? Will the water in the middle of the tank get filtered well? I'll post a pic to show. Also...

    Eheim parts

    I'm looking for another hose for my 2213 filter, bigals sells the correct item I need for .94 cents a foot. But I'm wondering if lowes sells a similar item that will work for aquariums or Is the hose that came with the filter something special for aquariums?

    Aqueon heaters

    What is the difference between the pro line of heaters and just the reg one? From what I can see it just looks like the looks are the only thing different and the reg heaters are 10 cheaper on amazon. That being said will I need 2 200watt heaters in a 75gal or can I go with 1 and a smaller one?

    Sand

    I've been told that either playground sand or pool filter sand is a cheaper alternative to buying sand from a petsmart or lfs. So I went out and bought sancrete play sand from lowes, someone told me that it's bad for fish because there's concrete in it. Is it true?

    Tank stands

    Weird question for everyone. I need to purchase a stand for my 75 gal tank. What's the difference between the stands that are sold at petsmart or lfs and a stand I find at a dept store for half the price? Basically are the wood stands at petsmart rated for a certain weight and made differently?

    What's wrong with my gourami

    He's been acting strange lately, like not being active and not really wanting to eat and just hanging by the bottom of the tank. The last 2 days he's been developing a strange bulge on his right side and now he's floating at the top and slowly leaning to his left side. If I could post a video I...
