Planning to keep some low to medium light plants like crypts, bucaphlantra and Anubis.

I am setting up a planted 26 gallon bowfront aquarium. It is about 16" deep and 24" wide. What type of light are you all running and would recommend? I'm thinking LED, but still want the best bang for my buck.

No matter how much you feed a fish, they will always try to eat more. They are simply trying to find more food, even if they don't need it.

Thank you. I will most definitely try the bottle method.

I have first and shrimp in both of my tanks. I have been feeding less and doing some more gravel vacuuming. (spelling?) I have noticed less of them in total since, but I would like to eradicate them. For the reason that I do much trading through my local aquarium club, I do not want to give them...

I finally got a good photo of one in a bucket while I was doing a water change. it has a very triangle shaped head.

Hello, this past summer I propagated dwarf saggetaria in a out door tank. I cleaned the plants in a bleach solution before bringing them into my indoor display tanks. Yet I now have a infestation of worm things in my Aquarium. Using Wikipedia, textbooks and my highschools microscopes, I...

Hello everyone. Iv been doing some research on the care of archer fish. Sadly I have not been able to find all of the information I am looking for. So I would like to hear all of the experiences you all have had with archer fish. Especially whether or not they are compatible with RCS, endlers...

+1 on fish trap for catching them. A pop bottle with the neck cut off and stuck in the other way works great with some food for bait.

Knowing which exact species, What type/brand of pump, and pictures would help us help you.

I bought this as on Amano shrimp. but it has grown way larger than the rest of my Amano's. It is also acting very aggressive towards the other Amano shrimp . I am now wondering if it is actually an Amano shrimp or another species.

No it is not moving on the fish. I'll try to get better pictures.

Hello, a few of my Cardinal tetras have a beigh/yellow thing on its tail. I am not sure if it is fun rot or not. All of the fins look ok on all of the tetras. I also remember scooping out a dead tetra a month ago, it had been missing a tail fin. All of these factors make me think fin rot but...

At the stores here, the cpo's are 20ish Canadian dollars. Tour prices are amazing compared to mine.

How new is this fish?

Yes I have three currently in a 65g tank. Yes I would agree with them being better to plants. But they are even less hardy then Cardinal tetras. With the way Otto's are collected only from wild they do not do well in a tank that is not well established (3 ish months old) they need enough algea...

You cannot use straight tap water. You must put declorenator in the water to remove cholrine and other chemicals, that the treatment plant puts in. Those chemicals will kill fish if not removed. Many people would say that you need to put in water that is the exact same temperature, I just make...

I do not know much about the illness to help you, but I do know that she had "dropsy" googling that will yeild answers.

Commonly know as najas grass. I let it float, no special treatment. It grows like hornwart.

The transition part of the plant, between the roots and the leafs. If you look top down on the plant the leafs come from this one central spot. If you the center is covered by gravel the leafs cannot poke through to grow.

Make sure that it is not planted to deep. You should be able to see the top of the crown.

The plants in the second picture looks more like jungle valsanaria than saggetaria. Val is also known to melt alot more than saggetaria.

5 young bronze Cory's in my final view tank before I add them to my 65.

I am looking at species of corydoras to get for my 65g tank. Currently in the tank I have 14 cardenal tetras, 2otto catfish, a few ender live-bearer, a tone of red cherry shrimp and 1 bronze cory. It is heavily planted and has drift wood. Water is always good. The cory used to have friends but...

I agree some small tetras would be nice add some corydora catfish to fill the bottom and it would be a good stocking.
