So I've been at 88 degrees in my tank for about two weeks. Treating ICH with heat. Nobody has any spots anymore and I've been spot free for about a week. I did a water change yesterday and sadly today, I found one of my cories dead. :(. My perimeters are ammonia 0 ppm, 0 ppm nitrite, 5 ppm...

So maybe you've seen me on here complaining about my ICH woes. Basically, after a water change about 10-11 days ago, I noticed one of my chili rasboras had two white dots on him. The next day I went out and purchased Quick Cure and have been treating the tank with that at 80 degrees temp. I...

Just wanted to let everyone know Amazon.com has the API Master Kit (freshwater) on sale for $15.51, it qualifies for free super saver shipping too. :) Have a great weekend! :fish2:

So I'm upgrading from a 20 high to a 29 today. I'm so excited!!! I know it's not much, but I am still happy with the upgrade. I have plans to do a pair of apostogrammas (flame maybe) and some schooling fish. Haven't decided on cories or otos though. :)

My python siphon came today so I'm pretty excited to enter the world of no more bucket brigading. One of my API ammonia test tubes full of water and testing chemicals fell and broke all over my counter tops today too. :(. I cleaned everything with vinegar. I have no idea if that was a good...

I can't believe that the spot is still on this dang fish!!! I am either the most impatient fish keeper in the world or this is the slowest moving ICH ever. Dang I'm sick of green water and lethargic fish. :(

I've recently discovered the beauty of a riparium. I love how they look. Does anyone here have a great link on start up/beginner information? I am thinking I want to try my hand at this. I love aquariums and I love tropical/house plants. It's a perfect marriage possibly? Any advice or...

So I want to upgrade my 20 gallon tall. I have only 30" length to work with (stand I have). I know a 29 gallon and a 37 gallon are both 30" long. What would you guys suggest? I keep Checking Craigslist for both.

His colors are already showing up! He's cute!

Today was day 4 since spotting the two white dots on my rasbora. There's been no change! The spots are holding strong even with the temperature rise. Is it possible it's something besides ICH?

So I noticed the dreaded white dots (one on each side) on my chili rasbora two days ago and have been treating daily with quick cure, raised the tank temperature to 85 degrees, added aeration, and have kept the lights mostly off. The two dots are still there! When will they fall off so the...

So after my water change on 6/25 I noticed one of my little chili rasboras had a little white dot on each side of him. *heart sink* oh no! The dreaded ICH!!!! I ran out today and purchased quick cure. I dosed today and I'm totally second guessing myself. Dang it! My tank seemed so happy. :(...

Does anyone use their water change water for house plant watering? I heard that houseplants love it but haven't tried it yet.

One of my females had her fry yesterday. I was only able to save 1, but I don't think she had that many. :( I have the little guy in a 20 gallon that I had been cycling. All the levels are fine in there but I'm worried he will be stressed all by himself. I put a stocking over the filter intake...

I want to set up a aquascape in a 20 gallon high for a pair of apistogramma and a school of (?I don't know yet?). Does anyone have a good idea of what this should look like? Rocky? Heavily planted? I've seen these aquascapes online of some kind of crazy leggy wood with large amounts of java...

So I'm new to fishy forums and have loved browsing through the threads and am loving it here, but I've noticed that when someone ask stocking advice and doesn't like the answers given, all he'll breaks loose! Lol. I would say that when asking an opinion of others, don't be offended when they...

So I love watching my guppies interact with each other but I think my dwarf corys are the most entertaining little things. What's your favorite fish to watch?

Anyone here able to guess how much longer I have before fry?

I'm new here and wanted to run my idea by some aquarium people. I have a 20 gallon that I am currently cycling. I have bog wood and water wisteria in it right now but already want to rescape it. I was wondering if I could do a pair of apistogrammas in there with a school of tetras of some sort...

Hey everyone,I have just recently started keeping fish again after being over 7 years fish less! I had a 55 gallon community tank that I sadly had to get rid of due to expense issues and a big move. Now I'm back at it! Finally! So I have two 20 gallons, one hex and the other just regular...
