    What is this?!?

    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...

    Fluval spec 3

    So i just picked up one of these for my betta. A lot of people online said that even on the lowest setting the pump was too strong. Well, imo, it's not. My betta is having no problem just floating around. The intake is not pulling him in, and the return is not pushing him away. Maybe it's...

    Brown algae

    Will shortening my lighting period get rid of the brown algae on my plants? I usually keep it on for 12 and off for 12. Could i shorten the light period until the algae goes away?

    Brown stuff on plants?

    So i just got some amazon swords and staurogyne repens about 4 days ago and now both plants have this brown/black stuff on their leaves. I don't know if it's dirt from when i dirted the tank and it settled on them, or if they are dying. I'm using a 6500k 40watt cfl about 17 in. above the plants...

    Can i put fish back?

    Ok just dirted my tank and i was wondering if it's ok for me to put my fish back in the water? I used dirt i had previously soaked and dried(repeat x5) from a couple months ago and just put the water rocks etc. back. I won't hurt my fish if i put them back will I? It was around 5 hours ago...

    So, just got a panchax killifish today. Was doing some mods to my hood(broke a light bulb during the process >_<) and the back is temporarily uncovered. I go to the movie and when I come back my new fishy decided to go for an air swim. I go to get rid of the evidence and it moved! O.o put him in...

    Too much light?

    I have 2 40watt 6500k cfl bulbs over my 10 gal fresh. Is that too much light you think? It's not planted yet so i can't give descriptions of how plants are growing under it. Thanks for your input. Edit: I don't know what I want to plant yet besides dhg for a carpet/foreground.
