    Red mbuna?

    I'm looking for some mbunas to add to my tank but right now I have a black, red and gray theme going. Are there any fire mbunas or black mbunas? I can't seem to find any and my local pet store only has a sketchy tank of "assorted African cichlids." Any ideas? 3g betta 10g divided female betta...

    First Freshwater tank and its Ammonia Level

    Fishless cycles are better. Just add some fish food once a week to the empty tank and after a month and a half, you'll have a cycled tank and no dead fish! 3g betta 10g divided female betta sorority 10g freshwater community 40g red tailed shark ~Non aquatic~ 20g gecko

    Red Tailed Shark tankmates

    New 40g tank and stand. Stocking questions.

    So today I just got my new 40g tank and stand that I ordered and I have a baby red tailed shark to go in it but I wanted to add maybe a few other fish with the same aggression as him. This probably isn't possible but any ideas from anyone?

    What Did You do With Your Tank Today?

    I'm doing so much with my tank today. I got a baby Red Tailed Shark and I had him for a few months in a 20g but I finally got the 40g tank and stand that I ordered and now I'm having to switch all of my tanks around. I'm tearing down one of my 10g betta tanks and putting the betta in a divided...

    What Did You do With Your Tank Today?

    Found black spots on two of my ember tetras. Not sure what they are but I'm going to research. I suspect it's a fungal infection with I can easily treat. Wish me luck! edit: I've been told they are probably just eating my black sand but their tails are turning black too...

    Have fun! I have a lot of trouble acclimating invertebrates. Im not very patient though so XD

    What Did You do With Your Tank Today?

    8 or so ember tetras would work. Embers are really fast swimmers so they work well with bettas. They aren't very fin nippy either. It depends on your betta though. Check his temperament with other fish first before investing. As for what I did today, im on day 3 of my betta breeding. The male...

    Started a courtship between my male and female betta and finished setting up the tank. I bought a cycled sponge filter so it's already cycled! Yay!!!

    Set up a 3g betta tank for my boyfriend. Let's see how this turns out lol. Of course, I'll be doing the maintenance and he'll be doing the feeding and cooing at.

    Breeding Bettas?

    I use 30 1 liter mason jars with 25 foot tube connecting all of them to a filter. It works just as well as the betta barracks :)

    Breeding Bettas?

    I agree with Andy. I'm a betta breeder and websites/articles like those are life savers. Also, you will need 30+ tanks for the babies after they hit 8-10 weeks old. On top of that, you need two spawning pairs of the same strand just in case one pair doesn't work out. Each breeder will need their...

    Teen aquarists

    Who else hates when you walk into a fish store and everyone assumes that you know nothing about fish keeping just because you aren't an adult. Ugh.

    Bettas in community?

    Agreed with everyone. You can try but it will be hit or miss. Also, do not assume that females wouldn't be aggressive either cause that's not true, females can be just as tempered as males. Good luck and make sure to post pictures if it goes smooth! :)
