What's up with my gourami?! I really need some help. One of my flame dwarf gouramis has something going on and I can't figure out if it's ich or columnaris or what. The coloring on his head has gone from grey to very patchy grey and white - almost like he's turning piebald. He also had a...

Yesterday I noticed this whitish clear stuff on my Java moss. I can't see it anywhere else, but then again it's so small I can barely see it on the moss. I looked up Hydra and all types of algae and fungus but I can't find a match anywhere. Can anyone help me figure out what it is and determine...

So a few days ago I brought home this beautiful male betta (he had been in a cup for weeks at the store and I kept checking for him each time I went, I finally caved in). I put him in a 2.5g cube until my 5G finishes the cycling process, and from the start he just rested on top of the silk...

I have a male betta in a 10g by himself. I'd like a clean up crew for his tank, but I'm not quite willing to just "buy and see" to figure out what will survive - it seems cruel to the new guys. Pongo is is pretty mellow betta, although very curious. I'm sure he'd eat my RCS so that's out, but...

What root tabs do you like? My first experience with tabs really turned me off (and has this ever happened to anyone else?) I popped a tab out of the package and plunged my hand into my 36g to place it under the gravel for my swords - but before I even reached the bottom of the tank, the tab...

New mopani wood, soaked before being placed in the new tank. Is this fungus?! It seems to be hovering around the end of the wood pictured. What do I do? new fishies arriving TODAY! It's hard to see... I'll be trying to get better pictures ASAP

CI recently upgraded to a 36g bowfront and was, at first, quite pleased that it came with florescent lighting. Then I looked closer... and I've got a single 20" T8 17w tube. Considering the 2w/gallon rule of thumb, this isn't nearly enough. My wisteria, which had thrived in my previous 10g, is...

I'm starting to plan my next tank, and it'll be my first SW, mainly because I love Pajama Cardinals. I've decided on a FOWLR set up and would like some feedback on what I'm thinking so far... 4 or 5 Pajamas, a pair of Banggai Cardinals, a few shrimp and either a Tang or a pair of Clownfish...

Hi there! I've been reading posts on Aquarium Advice and other fish keeper forums for a few months now, and I have to say that overall, I like this community the best. I'm still new to the hobby. I got into keeping fish (or should that be keeping water :-) ) through my 9yo daughter. I...
