Hey guys, I'm new to this, this is the first time that I have fish fry. I know this is going to be challenge, because the aquarium is quite small for these fish (6 gal). Should I get a 2 gal tank to put the fry in that tank so the fry does not get eaten? What do you suggest? Any advice will...

Thanks!

Hello, I just realized that one of my platies is giving birth! I haven't seen her actually delivering but I already so 4 tiny fish. Can you tell from the picture is she is the one pregnant? Thanks!

Guys, I need an advice pls. Two weeks ago I noticed there was a snail in my tank that appeared out of nowhere, and I posted about it in this forum. Today I was doing a PWC and noticed that there were like transparent bubbles in on of the leafs of an anubia. I touched it and it was kind of...

How much light is enough for anubias? I used to leave ~12 hrs the lights on and the anubias were doing great, but a week ago since I'm leaving the lights on for 9 hrs it seems they are dying, I see brown leafs. Any recommendation? Thanks!

That will depend on what type of light you have on the aquarium. If you just have the light that comes with the kit, I would suggest you put low tech plants, like javafern, anublas.

I've noticed that over the last week, there is some white stuff, like cotton, growing on the surface of my driftwood. Is this a type of fungus? It seems my platies like to eat that but I am not sure if I should be worried about or not. How can I get rid of it? Have a nice weekend all.

hahaha that feeder is so cool. I want one!

Hello there, Could you explain/elaborate on why is a fish tank considered a mini-ecosystem? I'm pretty sure this can be considered a silly question, but I would like to know what do you think of this. Cheers :)

One day, 2 months ago to be precise, I was just relaxing in my couch with a very nice view to the city and I was having just random thought, so one of those who randomly came to my mind was getting a fish tank. So I didn't do any research before hand, no nothing (this is totally odd, because I'm...

1. What was the first fish you ever had? My very first fish it was a betta who lasted close to 3 years. It was long time ago and I kept him in a bowl. Now that I have a fish tank, my firt type of fish I put in there, were neon tetras. I like them. 2. What's your favorite fish and why? I would...
