I've had a Peacock (gorgeous-strongly resembles a Lwanda Red Top) for about a year. Up until now he's be fairly peaceful. All of the sudden he started chasing everything in the tank. I caught him in one of my larger nets and wound up overlapping the net (so he couldn't escape) while I tried to...

I am a bit surprised and taken back by the lack of responses or expressed interest regarding this thread. I thought a solution to the problems that exist when introducing natural wood into an aquarium would excite just about everyone here. If a coating could provide a nontoxic seal and where the...

I think others that are more into lighting requirements for plants could better answer the height question. It seems a little tall in proportion to the W/D from an aesthetic point of view. I also don't think your children could do anything to your tank (glass or acrylic) other than splash water...

I have my prized piece of driftwood that is almost 10 years old. It was in my aquarium until last January when I had to move my tank. Over time it has decayed. I set it in the garage and it has been dry for several months. I was curious what preservative or coating I could use to preserve it...
