Thanks for your responses. I tried to find females, and I couldn't. I think I'm going to ask the LFS to take him back.

I'm hoping you can give me advice as to how to handle this situation. My dwarf gourami is aggressive. I already know this because he chases other fish in the tank. He is now attacking my snails. He has eaten the little tentacles off of one and killed another. I'm wondering if the tank is...

Thanks for your advice. I now have more of each and they seem very happy.

I think I"m gonna try the "swish and squeeze method" for the filter. It's a relatively small tank, so it might be too much to have both filters in there. In any case, thanks for all of the info and for taking time to look at my pics. I love having the tank. I can see how one could want...

Can you see the pictures here: http://www.aquariumadvice.com/forums/members/91190-albums13891.html Is this the usual way to post pics?

I like the look of the Aquaclear filter. If I get that, is it right to take the filter media out of my existing filter and put it into the new one? My betta is blue, pink, red, and purple. He is a double tail. I don't know if he's small because he's young or because he's just a little guy...

16 days, and I lost about three due to novice mistakes. I'm getting ready to do a 10-gallon, and I think I will be able to do it faster. We'll see!

Brendainnj -- My betta is a young male. He will be the only betta in this tank. I've heard that one can keep females together, but they can be "assertive" toward each other until they establish a pecking order.

Artist ..... Thanks for the response! My filter is an Aqueon Power Filter 10. It came in the kit my daughter bought for me. I've already upgraded the heater and will also be changing the lid. I don't like the way the filter pushes so much water around. The betta really keeps his...

Went to LFS yesterday to start stocking new (fishless cycled) 20g high tank. I wanted a young betta, which I think I got. Then, the gentleman at the store helped me with choosing corys. I got two panda and two sterbai, which he said would all stay together to get me to a minimum number that...

Thanks to all of you who've taken the time to post fishless cycle info for newbies. I used the info to complete a fishless cycle for the first time ever! I'm seriously psyched about having such a great environment for my fish and plants. Never, in a million years, could have done it without...

Starting new 20 gallon high - it fits the available space. Tank will be heavily planted with other natural features -- see pic for partially decorated tank. I'm thinking of the following, but I would really love to have ideas/opinions about what will work (or not!), or just good suggestions...
