They are dark yellow. Cute little buggers. Technically I have three since they just had a baby. He is pretty small but has been surviving for a couple of weeks now. No one has eaten him!!
Hello B!
Yeah, all the fish are fine and I'm not concerned about altering the PH. I was just curious if tank size had anything to do with it. I use tap water. The 55 does have a small piece of driftwood but it was 6.8 before I added the driftwood. The other two tanks have fake plants in...
I've kind of been wondering this myself. I have 2 BN Plecos and I place a slice of Zuchinni and after 24 hours it is mostly eaten so I remove it. Never had any water quality problems doing this.
I was wondering, does the size of the tank affect the PH? I have three tanks. 55G Tropical, 20G Goldfish and 3G Betta. The source of the water is the same for all three. The 55 is planted but the others are not. The PH on the 55 is always at 6.8, the 20 at 7.0 and the 3 at 7.2. The...
Thanks guys. Good info. I think he may be sucking up a lot of air. Every day when I feed him, just when I open the hood he is already freaking out sucking at the top waiting for the food to drop in. Greedy little punk :) I think I will fast him for a couple of days and then just feed some...

Yesterday he was just laying in a corner of the...
I have a small school of neon tetras and one of zebra danios. A couple of platies. A Dwarf Grourami, Bristlenose plecos and 2 Angelfish. (I know angels and neon tetras may not work, I like my neons but fell in love with a couple of Angels and it turned into an impulse buy). I've been feeding...
What kind/brand of food do you guys feed your fish? I have been feeding mine tetra crisps. I like these because they don't seem to me as messy as flakes. I know you should vary every now and then so I am trying to figure out what else to give. I was thinking dried blood worms but the label...
You wont have an overflow if it is set up correctly. You set the sump water lever with the power off. The overflow on the top right dictates the water level. When you turn on the pump the sump empties some of the water into the tank until it reaches the water level then it comes down back to...
