Well was a little shocked to find 5 of these just now. I noticed one sticking out of the gravel and after raking I found 4 more. I have a 55 gallon freshwater that has nothing but aquarium gravel and a few ceramic pieces nothing live at all. I've had it set up for 5 months with some glofish...

Ok here's my issue my city water has high nitrates I just finished my fishless cycle on my 60 gallon and today did a 90% water change followed by a 30% with RO water (tested at 10ppm) and added my fish but my nitrate levels are still 40ppm on API freshwater. That led me to test my city water. I...

Ok so apparently from the last time I tested my city water the amounts of nitrates in it has went up. It was testing between 10-20 on API but now is testing between 20-40. I have a RO system but it only pumps out 2 gallons per hour and I have a 60 gallon (with fish arriving today via FedEx) a 20...

So I have a 60 gallon that just may be about done with fishless cycling I keep reading mixed reviews and with all the information on cichlids out there, there's so many contridictions out there it's confusing. I'm aware of the 2 types and one needs the rocky environment ect. Along with over...

So I currently have a plain Jane 20 gallon tank with some Christmas moss just floating around for my guppy fry. I just purchased a 60 gallon tank and I'm looking to be low maintenance I'm thinking of possibly just doing regular gravel and maybe a moss wall. Would this interfere with a fluval...
