Lololol that is brilliant!

My liverock has been getting like that since algae started growing.

My lfs just had 2 9inch kissing gourami that got dumped on her. Lol she didn't even know where they came from, someone just walked in, dumped them in a tank and left. She sold them to a guy with a 125. Nice big ugly fish.

That's what I'm starting to think. Perhaps he scraped himself on the driftwood? It's also white near the base of the tail though, and doesn't resemble an injury. >_< This is seriously starting to stress me out lol

What type of fish is afflicted? -odessa barb What are your tank parameters (ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, temp, pH)? Please give exact values. -ammo 0, nitrItes 0, nitrAtes 0-5, pH 7.4, temp 76.2F How large is the tank? How long has the tank been set up? -55 gal. Been set up for 2 months...

I noticed this on one of my barbs just now. Like a white spot on his head. And near the tail. He also seems to have the beginning stages of fin rot. None of the other barbs or danios in the tanks have anything noticeably similar. I don't know what it is and more importantly how to treat it...

Lol. They be pond fish now.

I've decided against the lion lol. And the eel. I'm going to do the chromis, clowns, foxface, scorpion, jawfish, a wrasse, and maybe a hawkfish. I figure if i keep the scorpion well fed my inverts should be fine and if i supplement algae sheets my coral should be mostly safe from the foxface...

I'm planning a list of tenants for my 90 gallon. Tell me what you think! 3 agile chromis Pair of maroon clowns One spot foxface Fuzzy dwarf lion OR leaf scorpion Maybe a jawfish Maybe a snowflake eel. (Probably not but opinions would be cool) Anything i should add? Anything i should 100% nix...

My 55 freshwater My 10 gallon freshwater And my new 90 gallon saltwater

I'm going to email them on monday. :/ Regardless, it's not something that should have happened.

The one thing nobody seems to mention is that a flow restrictor (i used s ball valve) will probably need to be added to the waste water line. I tried to run it without restricting flow and all the pressure was escaping through the waste tube, and i was getting 10 gallons of rodi a day out of my...

+1 I love mine!!!

I've been running two mp10s in my new 90 gallon saltwater for about a month now. This afternoon both were working perfectly. Just now I noticed one wasn't on. Turns out that after a month one of the power supplies is dead! Are you kidding me!!! I paid a frick load of money for these and after...

Except when the government does it to get rid of other aquarium species. And then those run rampant and more non native species are released. The gov is so smart and always know what they be doin! :) Carp is nasty. It's not just the flavor, it's also the texture. Like mush. Mushy mud. >_<

Panther grouper. And a dolphin.

Don't feed tetra food!!! O_o it's full of fillers and crap. Try fluval or omega one(or both) and supplement frozen fish foods like bloodworm. Also use prime water conditioner. It will neutralize the affects of ammonia and nitrites on fish without disturbing the cycle. I would also suggest that...

It's one of those moments where you have to just make a choice and go with it. I would not normally kill any animal if I could find somewhere else for it to go, but when an animal is suffering or you are in a delicate situation and push comes to shove... I don't think op should be demonized for...

Cool. That's what i thought. I'll probably wait a few weeks after i move my fish and add the rest of the barbs so they can reestablish a pecking order and to give the bio filter time to adjust. Thanks.

I had a ghost shrimp that was the same size as my betta. Little Zim killed it as soon as i left the room. I came back in the room 10 mins later and he is eating the legs off the shrimp -_-

Err, a blade through the spinal cord between the head and body is the quickest and least painful way of putting down fish. Imo. My cat got a hold of my goldfish a few years ago. Nasty. I chose the quickest way to end his suffering. He got buried in my backyard.

I'm moving my barbs and danios from my overstocked 10gal to a 55gal when it is finished cycling. I have 5 male odessa barbs and I'm going to add 6 females to finish that school. Im looking for some focal fish and my question is could i add a pair of angels to the 55? I'm not asking if they will...

At the moment i just have five males. My lfs is ordering me 6 females when i move them to the 55. I might trade in some males, but i wanna see how they do before getting rid of them. They aren't causing any problems atm, even with my long fin zebra danios.

I've got mopawni in both my freshwater tanks. In my 10 gallon the piece has been in for 5+ months and still leeches tannins. It was boiled 4 times lol. Personally i don't mind the yellow tint. It makes my fish pop and doesn't hurt them at all. Individual preferences i guess.

Cool! Thanks everyone! Ordered everything this morning(minus live rock/sand). I already own a 5 stage ro/di system for drinking water so I'm good there. I also ordered a refractometer. Can't wait for everything to arrive! ^_^
