Okay, so thick glass siliconed on top of it and then seal the edges of the glass should be fine. I might sandwich it, glass piece sealed inside the tank. Let it cure for like a week. Seal from the outside. Let it cure. Seal on another piece of glass from the bottom. We'll see what the tank looks...

The bottom? I haven't seen the tank yet to know where exactly they are. I'm going to go look at it tomorrow. It was a reef tank if that that helps with a guess as to where they might be.

I found a great deal on a 125, but it's drilled. I am putting this up in my science classroom. It will be sitting on top of the lab counter, not on a stand. I don't have space in my room to just put it on the stand. I have no way/am not allowed to drill through the stone counters to run things...

I'm not sure the best way to ask this. Are gallons more important or area? A 120 will fit in the space I have for sure as it's only 4ft long. Could you stock that closer to like a 125 or does it need to stock closer to say a 75 because it's so short? So I'm kind of looking towards 2 options for...

Bahaha great white shark level. That's awesome. I'd really just like to get some (5-7) largeish sized cichlids. I kind of want them each to be a different type. If you went with readily/easily/commonly available cichlids, how would you stock it?

So it's better to do like one of each kind then? Or does it depend on the type of fish? How do you know which ones are worse then others with aggression? In my research I just keep seeing that they are all aggressive. Lol. Stocking cichlids is so much more complicated which is why it's taken me...

Mk, so not enough space. Lol. This is why we ask. The area I have can for sure do a 4ft tank, possibly a 6, and can go 2ft deep. I'll measure when I get up there tomorrow to know for sure how big I can go. Of the fish I listed, because they are readily available in my area, what would you use...

I'm thinking of setting up a large South American Tank in my science classroom. I am thinking of doing an Oscar, severums, blood parrots, Jack dempsey, convict, pleco. In it's final/adult stage, how big it a tank should I go to house these? Also, does this look like an okay combination? How...

Anything in particular you'd suggest? I have a school of about 6 Columbians, and around 8 white skirts. I just miss having fish the size of my hand in the tank. Would there be a different centerpiece type fish you'd suggest?

Hey all, I was thinking of getting some severums to replace my 8 year old breeding pair of Angels in my 65g community tank. The tank looks so empty without them. ? Anyway, I haven't really found any info one way or another on how many to keep together. Is this a single specimen fish, or could...

Hey all, After 8 years, the last of my angelfish pair passed. I bought them as an adult pair, so I'm not sure how old they actually were. This has left a large hole in my tank. I'm thinking of doing a restock but am wondering on suggestions. The tank is a 65 gallon planted Amazon type biotope...

In the distant future, I may consider re-stocking my 25g tank. The tank has 3 amazon swords, and 2 anubias along with several fake plants, and 3 large pieces of rose quartz. Sand substrate. I would like a tank with a lot of color and movement, that looks "full". I already have a platy...

I will be moving to a new state, and am wondering what to do with my fish tanks? We are moving about 6 hours away, so a pretty lengthy treck for fish I would say. I have a 10 gallon, that is currently WAY over run with platys. I've had platys before and had them breed, but they were NEVER...

I sort of did a modified cycle. I took the bio sponge from the 5 gallon tank and put it in the filter of my big tank, which has been up and running for quite a while, for about 2ish weeks. You know until it got all gross looking :). I also added lots of extra substrate to the bottom of my big...

Yeah. Seeing him not next to the other bettas he doesn't look that bad. When he was next to all the others with their long flowing tails he looked terrible. So just do frequent water changes and that should fix it? How much water should I change and how often?
