What do you use for fertilizer for your live plants... And what's your ph? An employee who works at one of my lfs said its hard to keep live plants alive with the water here cause the pH is out of whack... I feel like he is just speaking through his ***... But i dunno lol. I've got an Amazon...

Agreed!! I havent had this tank long and alot of the plants I have are from old tanks which i used to fill in the empty space. I've debated using real sand as substrate but a good friend of mine who worked at a fish store urged me to stick with what I have. One day I plan to convert this into a...

Thanks Nat_a126! It's my pride and joy!! Autumnsky LOVE It!!! I've been at this over a year now and im starting to do some research on care of live plants... I tried it once before in one of my older smaller tanks but was unsuccessful. I love the natural look... Been keeping my eye out for a...

Very nice!! I have a 26 gallon bow that houses my two 3 year old angel fish... Just recently upgraded my 29 top fin to a 45 bow front fluval... The difference in quality is unreal... I definitely recommend fluval if you ever decide to upgrade. Ps. I'm not a huge fan of backgrounds but yours is...

I set up my 45 fluval bow last night... It came with the fluval bow 45 stand and I noticed today that on one side (left to right) the water was 1/4 inch higher (measured with measuring tape) should I be concerned?? I've heard that it doesn't matter as long as the surface the stand sits on is...

Do what I do... If you have a bigger tank move the females to the big tank. Good way to control population... And then whenever you want more babies you can just move one back. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I have 6 gold barbs in my 29... Theyre so active and provide alot of entertainment. And very Hardy fish! Sent from my SGH-I747M using Aquarium Advice mobile app

If i had my time back I would have had an electric yellow cichlid as my centrepiece fish. Had an electric blue ram once upon a time but my school of gold barbs bullied it to death. :( Sent from my SGH-I747M using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I record this on my pvr every week and watch it and often wondered the same thing... But the majority of their tanks are massive. Like 1000+ gallons... I figure that probably makes cycling easier.

My 29 gallon has one blue gourami (tank centerpiece) 6 gold barbs, 5 glow light tetras, 3 neon tetras, 1 African dwarf frog, 1 long finned Corydora and 1 bristlenose pleco. Probably a bit overstocked but I have an aquaclear 50 HOB filter and do a 50% water change every 2-3 weeks. Aside from the...

Hi! I've been fish keeping for a while now but there's one thing I'm still unsure of. I don't have any noticeable algae build up on my tank but I find if I give my algae eater an algae tab every couple days he slacks off on cleaning the glass... Not to the point where it's noticeable from a...

He must love life being in a tank that size... Is he alone?? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Very pretty! Only one of my lfs stores sells female bettas and they're usually always gray. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

It's also been a species only tank since I bred the parents. This past weekend I added a baby bristlenose pleco to help control the algae growth (mind you it never got that bad... The lights are usually on only a couple hours a day) I know alot of people would disagree with a pleco in such a...

Guppies are super sensitive. Before I established this family I must have bought a dozen at least. I have found that the ones born and raised in my tank last alot longer. Probably because they're so adjusted to the water. When I move the females to the big tank I have to be very careful... Moved...

I bought the Marineland crescent 3 gallon a couple days ago and from the reviews I read the filter backing up and overflowing apparently is a common complaint. I used the whisper 3i on an old betta tank I had and it worked so so. Kept the water clear but i found that the flow really slowed down...

I once bought 10 neons at the same time and put them in my 30gallon. All but 3 died a day apart in pristine water and conditions. Some tetras are just really sensitive. I tend to avoid buying them now. Sent from my SGH-I747M using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Probably would be nice if I remembered to attach the pic! Sent from my Nexus 7 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

10 gallon guppy tank. Started with one male and female and these are their grandchildren and recently great grandchildren. Unfortunately mama and papa are no longer alive but their family lives on! Once one of the females reproduces I move all the females to my big tank so between that and not...

My bristlenose pleco... Going on one year old. About 4" long now. Was teeny tiny when I got him. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

29 gallon half real plants half silk... Got tired of my bristlenose pleco shredding all the leaves and clogging the filter. Currently in the process of revamping the tank and adding new plants and retiring some of the artificial ones! Sent from my Nexus 7 using Aquarium Advice mobile app
