Recently got a job as the fish guy at a local pet store. The owner says I have to put Prime (or other chlorine, chloramine, etc etc deactivator) deactivator in new water and then let it sit for 24 hours because products like Prime "don't work." Well Prime has worked seemingly instantly (as it...

Been experimenting, 10 gal is a background with a top terrestrial part that serves as a waterfall and small reservoir. Aquatic moss and terrestrial plants growing in it. 20 gal is just a background but I want to redo it before I stock it.

Anyone ever try to/have success with barnacles growing in their brackish (or fresh or salt) tank? I've googled it but there isn't much on it out there

For my fifth (and final....?) aquarium I want to try something different. Have done a paludarium already but want to take it to the next level. Have two 20 gals lying around begging to be used. Goal is to give a unique perspective: you're looking at a riverbank underwate (rocks driftwood tree...

I know female DG's are grayish with rounded fins and males are colorful with pointed. The first set of DG's I ever bought were colorful and had seemingly round fins but I assumed they were pointy enough, and thus male, because of their color. However, I recently got 2 more DG's for my new tank...

Hey! I was on AqAdvisor and put in 2 German Blue Rams, 6 hatchets, 6 danios (zebra), and 3 oto's. 20 gallon long, 30 gallon filtration. Will be heavily planted, orinoco style. I have 2 successful tanks that are years old community tanks, but have never done any tank with a cichlid. I know they...

I have a fiddler/red claw crab tank set up. 10 gallon beachside biotope. Whatever petsmart has will determine which species I get. Anyway, after researching for a few weeks I have yet to see or read about the crabs burrowing in a tank. I know they do in the wild. Does anybody know if they will...
