Hi everyone, finally have my 80 gallon set up and doing well it seems. Ultimate plan is a well planted tank with 5 angels as the feature. So far I have background plants in. (amazon swords, jungle val and red temples) and 8 Mollys as a starter fish to help the cycle along. The mollys are doing...

Hey all, I'm planning the set up for my first tank in about 13 years. The tank I have is roughly a 75 gallon, 48 X 16 X 24 high. Been having a really hard time deciding what to do with it. I am now leaning towards central american cichlids. I've had them in the past and liked them. After a...

Hi everyone, Mike here. I'm from just north of Sault Ste Marie, Ontario. Used to be into aquariums back about 12-13 years ago, and now thinking of getting a tank again. Dont plan on going heavily into things this time, but planning one nice tank in my living room. Still not sure what I will...

I'm thinking of getting that exact set up! Been many years since I've had an aquarium and now have the itch again.
