    20 gallon high-new planted tank

    20 gallon high-new planted tank

    Around 3 years ago, I started with a 20 gallon high tank. For the past 3 years, I have had plastic plants in this tank with the usual assortment of common community tank fish. Around 1 1/2 years ago, I bought a 10 gallon tank and started my journey into the live plant world. Its been a great...

    Flame Moss???? Where to get it???

    But, since he is outside the US, your shipment (which is sure to lack the legally required phytosanitary certificate) will be subject to seizure and destruction should customs look at it, and you will be out whatever you paid. True but your paying so little, maybe a total price of $10 bucks...

    Try Aquabid.com. I have bought previous moss from a dealer named AquaticMagic. He has reasonable prices and quick shipping.

    I recently purchased 4 Otocinclus fish from the local PetsMart. I put 2 of them into my 20 gallon artificially planted tank and 2 into my 10 gallon heavily planted tank. The 2 fish in the planted tank seem to be thriving while the other 2 seem to be getting thinner around the abdomen. I have...

    My plants are crying for help........

    I'll start with my biggest concern and work my way down. Please sit back and grab a cold one. First, both my anubias nana and coffeefolia have started to gather darkish green/black random spots on the leaves. I am assuming its a type of algae. The plants are in the foreground of my tank and have...

    White fuzz on Willow moss......

    I recently did a remodel on my 20 gallon FW tank. I had a bunch of plastic plants and some lace rock. I removed the platsic plants and attached willow moss to the rocks.

    Questions with java fern.......

    I have a few Java ferns in my planted 10 gallon tank. I have noticed that the tips of the ferns have changed from a light green to a mushy dark green. It's hard to explain so I don't know the correct term or word for the problem. To me, it looks unhealthy. The other plants are doing well except...
