    I have fish!

    Finally stocked my tank last night. After about a month of looking at an empty tank (90 gallons) I made the trip to a couple stores and got the fish along with a 3oz package of Biospira. Here's what I ended up with: 2 Pearl Gourami 4 Boesemani Rainbow 6 Scissortail Rasboras 4 Yo Yo Loach I was...

    Stocking scheme, how does this sound?

    Looking at stocking my 90 gallon with a community containing some medium sized fish. The latest water test of water in the tank that has been up and running for a few days with all the decorations (minus a handful of plastic plants just ordered) shows my pH at 7.8 and KH at 2. I was thinking of...

    Setting up a new (used) tank

    I finally found a good deal on a used tank and jumped on it. Now I just have to figure out what to do next. It's a 90 gallon glass tank with a stand, and a Marineland 350 canister filter, 250 watt heater (glass, it will be replaced eventually), a couple buckets of gravel, and a bunch of misc...

    First tank, stocking/filtration question

    I'm getting ready to purchase my first tank. It will be either a 50 or 55 gallon (still looking around for the best deal and possibly a used one). What I'm planning is to keep the 50 gallon in the living room and then eventually if I enjoy it and think it's something I want to expand on go for a...
