Thanks.

He died. :(

6 Gallon Eclipse: My Beta and Tetra are above. 20 Gallon Glass: I just replaced the gravel in this with some nice rocks, I will upload those soon.

I noticed that my beta fish is covered in white spots, on both his head and scales. I have a tetra in the tank as well but it seems unaffected. I have gradually raised the temperature to 86 degrees f. I also added some maracide and melafix to the water. The beta fish has been pretty...

Any suggestions?

RE: Brown Leaves Well, I have kept the light on now for about 12 hours a day, and the plants seem to be fine. IS the standard Eclipse light good, or does anyone suggest a different kind to help the plants thrive? If anyone could give me the name or link to a proper light that would fit in the...

re So how do I provide more CO2? What fertilizers do you reccomend? The dealer at the pet store said that since I was using Onyx as a soil for the plants that I wouldn't need fertilizer.

RE Yeh, I have the bio-wheel, but it does not spin for some reason, I do not mind that though because it was way too loud when it spun. Great thank you for the info. As for the plant types , I am not sure of what type they are, but I will attatch a picture for you too see. [/img]

I have 3 love plants in my 6 gallon tank. Will they create enough oxygen to replace an airpump? I do not want to deprive the fish I am going to put in of oxygen. Thank for the help.

It has cleared up pretty well. What I actually did after a water change was remove most of the Onyx from the front of the tank, I just kept it where I planted the plants, and about 2 inches around the plants, and put normal gravel around the rest of the tank. Is this an ok procedure to do...

Would adding some water clarifier hurt the situation?

Actually, I washed it pretty well, for about 45 minutes before I put it in. I was thinking about doing a water change too if it does not clear up by tomorrow morning. Any other suggestions?

I just went to my local pet store because I am going to plant some live plants in my small (6 gallon) tank. The dealer told me to buy Onyx Sand and I did. I do not have anything else in the tank but the water and the Onyx sand and I turned off the filter and airstone. I put it in my tank...

I went away for a couple of days and I noticed a real thick buildup of crust around my top rim of my tank and down the back walls of it. I only put in water treatment and a little bit of sea salt. Is this the salt evaporating out of the water or is it built up bacteria or something else?

I just got a breand new 45 gallon tank and I have a Rena airpump and a visitherm heater. I wanted to know if a Aqua Clear Filters by Hagen would be a good choice for my filtration.

How do u overfilter it?

I am looking to transfer my African Chichlids to a bigger tank, around 55 gallons. I wanted to know what type of tank you suggest, I was thinking of a TopFin they had at PetSmart. I am going to use a Rena Air Pump and a Visitherm Heater. What type of filter is the best I can get, I don't care...

Any suggestions on tanks and or brands? I am thinking of getting a TopFin tank at PetSmart. Bad Idea? Good Idea? Give me some input!

I am also going to try and figure out how to post a pic so I can give you an overview shot of my tank with the fish in them so you can get an idea of its size.

and if they are over 250kb then how do i reduce them?

How long do you think I can wait before I get a bigger tank? They aren't exactly cheap lol. I am planning on getting one, but not right away. Also if I do get one, a 46 gallon is what I am thinking will fit, can I put other fish in with my African chichlids. If I can, what kinds will be...

My local PetSmart also told me two days, but one of my friends who has a fish tank came over to see my tank, and he told me I was crazy if I got fish now. He said to wait at least two weeks. I also read alot over the internet about how to get a good cycle going. I think like any other hobby...

Well, I am new as well, but in my short span with fish, my Neptune heater overheated 2 weeks after I bought it. I have a Visitherm now, and for the price it is definitely worth considering. The quality seems to be very accurate as well. With a lifetime warranty, you'll never even have to buy...

Whats a python?

Yes, I am planning on getting a 46 gallon for my den. I just got these fish about 2 weeks ago, and I have had the tank I have now for about a month. I never have had fish before, and I wanted them as a more "decoration" for my room. I realize now what effort they are, but I enjoy the hobby...
