So I picked up a leaky 56g corner tank 27"x27"x42"(curve) for a killer deal, resealed it and am wondering what to do with it. I was curious what people's thoughts were on mbuna, being that it isn't a "4 foot tank", being stocked in this corner tank. I was thinking a boat load of rock work and...

Ok so I was going to chronicle this with a bunch of pics from when I bought the tank and stand at an estate sale for 60$ (came with a cool acrylic sump too!) but I went swimming with my iPhone in Hawaii and apparently I hadn't been backing stuff up correctly so I have no before and during pics...

So this is my male Rubescens at 2 1/4" tonight. I have raised him on NLS. Well, I ordered the UltraRed yesterday and decided I would see if it starts to make a difference in his color. Starting Wednesday 3/25 I will feed the UltraRed daily in appropriate amounts, fast on Sundays (w/c day, my...

Well, I had a beautiful lwanda male that I was fighting bloat with for about 2 weeks. He did the typical hang out alone, not eating, then the ascites appeared. I am a nurse by profession, so I managed to do 2 paracentesis during that time, getting his ascites to subside, and abx tx...

Big rescape on my 46gal african tank! Got a pretty female gold angel for my daughter's 36gal bowfront yesterday, they are getting along great (the 2 angels) and my first attempt at a planted tank, the spec 5!

Anyone know what kind of angel you'd call this? And male or female? Good sized, 2.5"-3" in diameter. Thanks!

Male hap of some sort... Starting to show some blue. Had the nip in his fin from the pet store. Local fish store gal that sold him didn't know, he was in a 2.99 "discount" tank with a female peacock. She said this was a female that they couldn't sell but he showed me just a hint of blue...

Anyone know what kind of snails these are? Popped outta my Java moss and they are growing FAST.

I am curious if these would be an ok addition to a peacock tank? They are really neat fish and I think they would be properly sized for peacock/hap tank

My Taiwan reefs right eye is about 50% larger than the left and has a small light haze right in the middle, almost looks like a cataract. He's not acting sick. Holds one of the top positions in the tank. Has been like this a few days with no changes. Any thoughts? Sparing damage? Scraped...

Not generating much talk in diy... None at all actually lol. I am making this for my Malawi tank! The stuff is called magic sculpt, I've discovered it is incredible for aquatic decorations/backgrounds. I wasn't gonna show this until I was done but I ran out of magic sculpt so waiting on...

So I wasn't going to show this off until it was all done and painted but I ran out of magic sculpt tonight! Gotta wait on Amazon for a while. Anyways this is for my mixed Malawi tank. I think they'll like it.

DHG is going nuts!

Sitting here tonight and this behavior has been happening on and off all night I have 3 of these guys, have had them maybe 10 months. Is this synodontis breeding or bickering? Thanks! If they are breeding I imagine those eggs are eaten rather quickly?

Ok I have purchased 2 aquatop inline 10w uv sterilizers. One had broken quarts sleeve so I got a 3rd for replacement, this one too has quarts broken so number 4 shows up. I have 2 total units and 2 units with broken quarts but bulbs that appear intact. Now for the help. No matter what...

Just got my aquatop in line uv sterilizer for my cichlids... This gives me so much faith in this product.

Question... I am going to carpet this fluval spec 9 with dwarf hair grass before I fill it, just keep on the substrate moist. I have a base layer of aquarium plant substrate (I forget the brand but it's the staple) some root tabs and black Caribbean sand. My question is once the carpet is...

Picked up 3 of these guys at the LFS for my 36g bow front, guy said 3 would be good together, im thinking he may have led me astray. The 2 pictures labeled dominant are of the guy with the best color hanging out at the bottom. the other 2 pics labeled subdominant are all of the same fish...

Could anyone tell me what kind of mbuna this is?

Just had to post! My yellow lab is holding for her first time :)

As the topic suggests, I moved my mbuna herd to a 75 and have a 36g bow front and am curious if it would be suitable size for 2 German blue rams and an angelfish and would these fish even be suited to each other? Thank tou The 36 is well cycled and I have lowered the ph and I know gbrs need...
