This is a brand new tank that was in my trunk for a few weeks. The tank size is a 20 gallon long. My daughter just told me she wrapped it in the car cover and strapped it down.

While I was in the hospital my daughter wanted to surprise me by getting the new tank onto it's table. She didn't know you had to check for water leaks. Can I just silicone the whole tank?

I hope he gets better.

I'm sorry I don't know how to edit my previous posts. I want to save some of my old filter material. Is it OK if it dries out? My new tank won't be here for a few more days.

If it's coming out of the Northeast USA it might take a while.

replying I think is was just a very bad water in the tank that killed all the fish. This tank is to hard for me to care for. And because we are getting a new tank we just decided to start all over. We are even changing the fish we want. We have very hard water here we joke we can eat the water...

What I did to my tank today I spent the day emptying the tank and getting rid of it. I'm getting a brand new one with new plants and decorations, we are not sure if we want glofish or just black gravel. This one will be safer and easier for me to take care of properly. My ultimate goal is a...

I have a 29 gallon tall tank, Aqueon 30 filter, gravel and 1 plant, and a very old fluorescent light. I need to restart my tank all over again. The first thing I'm going to do is scrub the filter clean (it has a black/brown green gooey slime coming from the filter).There are no fish in the tank...

Congrats

Because he was a surprise I can't get algae food for another week. I raised the temp in the tank and leaving lights a little longer to make the algae grow. Tonight Oscar is getting zucchini.

I played a game that had swamps. I started choosing plants for my tank. When my topic of conversation went to fish and plants for my tank on face book. I spend hours a day looking at fish and plant related material online.

I have identified what type of Pleco Oscar is he is a leopard. Taking a picture of him is nearly impossible he comes out only when it's dark. The rest of the time he is in his cave upside down. What type of plants are good for him to hide in? I now remember having one when my daughter was...

I love your tanks. I'm sorry you lost a puffer.

I will post picture as soon as my daughter can do it. He hides upside down in the cave. Bert a larger tank is already on my list. Not all plecos get that big.

I did a partial water change, rearranged the plants, rock/cave and smoothed out the gravel.
