This time I could not get it started after the monthly cleaning. The cannister would not prime. Next I siphoned through the out hose and...

    Cheap fish shipping prices????!!!!!

    It's a problem. I've ordered fish on line, good quality, good delivery, good guarantee, but you have to order a lot to justify the freight. As a result I ordered more than I wanted at once and overloaded a relatively new tank. Great stuff that you can't normally get locally. If you have multiple...

    Missing fish mystery

    When I do my weekly water change I vaccuum at least an inch down so if there was something in the gravel I should have seen it. Tomorrow's my weekly water change so I'll pay closer attention to this.

    Missing fish mystery

    The angles are not big enough to eat any of the other fish. One's more aggressive than the other, but I've only seen it chase and nip at the other Angle, but not do any real damage. Assuming the snails and other fish could devour a fish over night, if this happening it wouldn't always be at...

    I have a 50 gal community tank with the following type of fish: Guppies White Clouds Angle Fish Dwarf Gouramis Cory Cats Snails Over the last several months I lost 4 Cory Cats, about 5 Guppies and 5 White Clouds. When I say lost, they just disappeared without a trace. All my parameters are...

    I plan to start with the easiest solution and work to more complex solutions as needed. I'm sure in the near future I will get a CO2 regulator. I love gagets.

    One of the recommendations is to use Florish and Excel. They have a product called Florish Excel. Is this a combination of of the two products?

    Just read the instructions for the PPS pro. Just want to make sure I get it right. Add every day with lights off? Is this all you use? I currently add Florish, should I continue with this, or not necessary?

    Plants stopped growing

    Thanks, I'll look into other supplements. I do change the water 40% - 50% every week. This is the first fresh water tank since I was a teenager. Since then I've had salt water of and on over the years. Fish have been doing fine, but need to learn more about plants.

    Up until 2 weeks ago my plants were growing like crazy, since then they have not only not grown, I've had some die off. The tank is about 6 months old and mist of the plants have been in it about 5 months. It's not just one type of plant affected, but all of them. The only thing I use is...

    Cherry shrimp & Bettas

    Since my Betta has always been in a tank with only a snail, I have no idea how aggressive he is. The only way I will know is to potentially sacrifice a shrimp. Think I'll just keep the shrimp in a small dedicated tank. I understand they reproduce quite easily, so that will be fun to watch...
