The ropes are at least 11" long already, one likes to hide in the decorations a lot and the other hangs out and swims around the tank a decent amount. Should I rehome the pleco and keep all of the tetras?

The lab is pretty big, and the previous owner said he picks on the tetras so I was thinking about rehoming him but I haven't noticed aggression but I'm sure he does since he's a lone African Cichlid. I wish I had another tank to put the tetras in. I'm also going to add another canister filter, I...

I acquired a 75 gallon with the following fish: 8 Black Skirted Tetra 1 Yellow Lab 1 Common Pleco I have always wanted rope fish and also have been interested in bichirs, so I went to an upscale LFS nearby to pick up either 2 ropes or 1 rope and 1 bichir (was wanting senegal). The guy who was...

I have a 75 gallon that I acquired from someone (already cycled with preexisting fish) that's all set up and ready for an aquascape. I'm not currently at home and will have to take a look at the wattage, but it seems to be a pretty strong fluorescent bulb. The substrate is sand and smooth...

I visited my friend's apartment for the first time since she and her boyfriend had set up a gallon tank. They've had it for a few months. The current inhabitants are two blue gouramis about 2.5-3" long. I was so horrified I didn't know what to say or how to react, so unfortunately I just...

I know this is late but sorry to hear about your fishies :(

Haha my betta, Leon (silver and blackish or dark gray halfmoon), also attacks his food viciously. The betta looks much more lively!! :)

Here's another pic of the tank

I tried 2 adf before adding the betta and platy but I noticed they were pretty sick after bringing them home from Petsmart (I only have a petsmart and petco in the town I'm in for school) which I was afraid of. When I went back to return the two dead frogs (I was pretty upset) I noticed there...

Now that my 10 gallon is established I added some fish. Before my tank was fully cycled (before nitrates were showing up in my tests) I had added a betta and 3 Julii cories. I left for a weekend and came back to find a dead cory, weak betta, and ammonia readings of <.25 ppm (yellowish green test...

Thanks.. I just don't know what was wrong since my other fish are still fine! I've been doing daily water tests

I wish I could spend money to order a nice betta online but I really am trying to save money in any way I can (even though I'm still spending lol). I saw a beautiful white betta at petco. His behavior was the best out of their selection of bettas and just glancing at him he looked great...

I hope someone who can help replies soon! Id like to see what they have to say as well.

Hope you find out where she went! Sorry for your loss :(

Brock died... :'( good bye Brock, I didn't mean to kill you :( I shouldn't have added the other fish to a tank trying to cycle
