Back story: I had a breeding pair, after the second batch the female ate her mates eye and so I had to separate. She then paired up with an other in the community tank, and at the same time the third adult in that community tank choked on an Otto and died. Then she killed her mate after he ate...

We have lots of angel fish, most are veil and the ones ready to go have bodies a little bigger than quarters. Our pet store connection fell through so now we have like 200 plus babies, 30 of which are ready to be moved. The mom is the smokey one and the dad is the white with the gold cap. He...

Please remember to khuli loach proof your filters. We had to change our canister and completely forgot to put mesh over the slits. Today I found a male loach stuck in the holes in two places. Still alive. I was able to get him free by cutting the slats but I think he is going to die. What a...

Any one have any odd behaviors they have observed from their old fish? I have a 2 year old female Danio who constantly swims in circles. Like she is neurological always to the left. At first I thought it was stress because she was one of two danios in a 55g. So I got four more. She still swims...

We took the plunge. We picked up 3 two inch clowns. Right now they're going in to a 55g with mostly bottom feeders except for one angel fish and two danios. Our plan is to move them to the 120g at work once they out grow this set up (hopefully killing all the snails here in the process) and then...

In my 180gal I had seven angels. I ended up with two "pairs" that fought relentlessly. So I removed the older "pair" that seemed the most aggressive to the others and put them in their own 30g love shack. Now this pair fights all day and all night. No one seems injured but there is a lot of...

We have had some issues with two of our angels relentlessly bullying a third. About 5 days ago we moved our black beauty to his own home. Looking back, maybe he should have stayed in the community tank and those two should have gone. I want to let them try on their own, as a mother I hate...

The bf is taking over the salt water tank at his work and planning to switch over to fresh planted. Fun right?! We're in the planning stage. Finding homes for the tang, clown fish, and starfish at our favorite mom and pop lfs. The tank has a big sump and a cheap made in China canister filter...

We are all of the sudden having a problem with cloudy water the day or two after a water change. The first tank affected is our 30tall planted angel fish tank. 1 pair of angels are all that's in there. Pressurized co2 Nothing has changed in over four months. This tank has been running for...

On halloween I posted that our house flooded. Boo. They made us get rid of the 180g. Boo! We are living in a hotel until mid feb. Meh. Could be worse. We have 3 tanks running in the garage now. An over stocked, with plants and fish, 55g, the 20long and the 17g that we are still afraid to put...

My house is flooded ankle deep because of the water heater. My biggest concern right now is what to do with the fish. The land lord says that every thing will have to come out of the house temporarily. We're talking: 7 Angels 30-40 danios 2 bettas 5 harlies 9 Galaxy rasborras 6 cory 7 neons 10...

This is my boyfriend's baby. He might love this tank more than he loves me ;) It's a 17g rimless and currently a plant only tank. It did have a foster betta for a while but since we had a problem with a sudden drop in ph we moved the betta to an other tank to wait for his permanent home at my...

I had two orange cherry shrimp in a 20 long with 6 Galaxy rasboras (the tiny ones), 1 amono shrimp, and tons of pest snails. I had three nerite snails who seemed to all pass the same day, completely still half in/out of the shell. When I touch them they sucked back in. We moved them to our...

Our marineland emperor 400 hob just died. Currently we have 1 other ML emp 400 and a Fluval 400 canister running. Wondering if we should get an other canister or replace the hob? What do you experts think? Sent from my iPhone

Are there any down sides to having them? Every one seems to love them so much! I'm wondering if I should get a group for one of my tanks. I get the feeling my fish collection isn't complete until I own a cory :) Sent from my iPhone

What is your experience with the danios? I have five and they seem more delicate than my neons. I started with nine. :-/ they used to all hide behind the filter intake and then I added plants. Now, the hide in the ludwigiea. They don't eat flakes and they seem to be wasting away slowly. They...

This is one of my male long fin gold danios. He is one of the first fish I got when I started the hobby in April. He was full grown when I got him, so I guess 8 months minimum. I've noticed this lump about a month ago and it has grown a lot in the weeks since. None of the other danios are sick...

Dropsy. Seems I've killed my beloved and beautiful betta, Bruin. The last day or two we noticed the pine come scales and knew it was a matter of time. He continues his normal behavior until yesterday after a two day fast and refused his dinner. My question now is, what to do with the seven...

Any one know why my 180gal turns white when we dose iron(5:50g) and potassium (5:30gal) and my 30g, 17g, 10g, 20g do not? Every one has pressurized co2 except the 20. The 30 is the only one with out LED. The water stays pretty white for about four hours then clears up nicely. Sent from my...
