After about 1,5 years of many small changes in stocking, scaping and plants, this how my first and only tank is looking at the moment. I'm thinking about buying some more 'branchy' amazon driftwood somewhere along the line, and also add some more plants. What do you think? I'm in doubt between...

I've been running my 15 gallon tank for half a year now, stocked with 13 Rasbora Merah and 5 Dwarf Rasbora's. I'm planning to do completely redecorate the tank and everything in it (except for the fish, haha): I'll add even more plants (mainly moss and grass), driftwood, a school of Rasbora...

Hi there! For a long time I wanted to add some nice red rasboras to my 15 gallon tank. Because my LFS doesn't have them, I decided to order Boraras Maculatus from the internet. I should've done a bit more research, turned out the kind I got weren't red; at all.. They're the bigger fish on the...

Hi. Some time ago I started my first aquarium, a 15 gallon tank. After a fishless cycle I put in 10 Norman's Lampeye Killifish 1,5 month ago. Apart from one inexplainable death, the fish did really well the first 3 - 4 weeks. From that point on, each week a fish died. The last week it only got...

Hi there. Over a month ago I stocked my first 15 gallon tank with 10 Norman's Lampeye Killifish (crappy cellphone pic below). Unfortunately I lost 3 of them, but the remaining 7 are doing good. Time for some new tankmates, right? I like the Lampeye's a lot, they are not very prominent looking...

For a few weeks I have a 15 gal aquarium up and running, with 9 Norman's Lampeyes in it. One didn't make it unfortunately, the others are doing perfect though. I even saw a few babies a few days ago, although they probably got eaten now because I don't have a spare tank yet. My only concern at...

Hi there! After a few weeks of fishless cycling, I put 10 Norman's Lampeye's in my 15 gal 3 days ago. They are doing very well as far as I can see. Two things concern me, however, the first being very high nitrates. The night before buying the fish, I tested the water: pH: 7.8 Ammonia: 0.25...

Hi there! I recently got my first tank and it's been cycling for 2.5 weeks now (of which the last week with fish food). While doing my research for stocking a few questions came to mind and I figured it might be smart to ask them here to avoid problems later on. While researching stocking...

Hi there! I recently got my first aquarium and it's been up and running for exactly two weeks now, without fish of course. Today I noticed something weird: a little worm-like creature of about 1,5cm is suddenly swimming around in my aquarium. I also noticed many little worms (of about 1mm)...
