I've got a 75 gallon with about 15 tropheus. Should I go with a fluval 406 , fx4 or fx6? I like to stick with the fluval brand as I'm happy with it over the years. Any input?

New life spectrum has the best flake food imo. My fish love it. I do feed My fish brine shrimp ones a week cause they go crazy for it.

I've got a few tangs in my tank. They used to get ich every few months. I've set up a big uv sterilizer. The flow is very slow thru the sterilizer. I've had no ich in at least 2 years. I do think the uv sterilizer helped. My opinion. But many will disagree

I'm setting up a African cichlids tank. Since I have a saltwater tank as well I've got a rodi water unit. I'm wondering if I can use that water for the freshwater setup? Or am I going to miss out on some minerals because the water is too clean?

So I just bought 3 LED units to replace my 250 watt halides. I really like the blue look. I turned down the whites to 20% and blue at 100. The questions is will this affect growth or do any harm to the corals?? I only have lps, softies and a few RBTA. I know blue is used allot by corals but the...

mine lives with bigger clowns, purple tangs, small angelfish and some damsels. for your size tank a dwarf angelfish, dwarf lionfish or big size clowns would probable be fine.

so my convicts keep breeding (i know weird) and ive covered my aquaclear HOB filter intake with some mesh so it wouldnt suck up the fry. Problem is it keeps plugging up so fast and the filter stop working. Any idea what i can do about this?

They don't need it necessarily but they do grow faster and bigger with some supplement food. Living creatures enjoy the occasional food supply Sent from my iPad using Aquarium Advice

I personally run all jebao return pumps on my aquariums. They are powerful, very quiet and not too expensive. I wouldn't run another return pump again. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I have an open top aquarium and I gave up on six line wrasses. They keep jumping out the tank. They must love my floor tiles more Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice
