My nitrate level is high but my ammonia level is normal. I've been changing the water every other day to see if I can get the nitrate level down but it's not working. I have a vacuum and I've been vacuuming regularly but I still think the problem is the bottom is too dirty. Can I take all the...

It's only a 30 gallon But it kind of seems like the catfish are chasing the gourami. The catfish are mostly brown

I have a 1 redtail shark, 1 gourami, 5 green barbs, and recently bought 4 upside down catfish. I just saw on the compatibility site they shouldn't go together. It's been 2 days and no one is bothering the the catfish. Should I return the catfish or keep them?

Yea you're right but they are so cute! Oh well i guess i can get them when I get another tank

They are also called South American puffers. Does anyone know about these kinds of Puffers? I hear they are social fish but they fin nip when they are hungery. Do you think they would get along with cory's and swordfish?

Yea that bump on the dorsal fin is kind of covered with a little white fuzz. I moved him back into his bowl because I was worried about the swordtails bothering him. I did just put bettafix in his bowl. Should I stop that and just clean the water everday? or should I try something else?

My beta has lived alone in a 1 gallon bowl for 3 years. Two days ago I moved him into a 29 gallon tank with 6 sword fish in it. The new tank is recently cycled and I added the swordfish 8 days ago. Those fish seem healthy. Now I notice this spot on the betta's top fin right on the edge. He...

Ok my beta is kinda old, but for some reason I feel bad starting a bigger tank and leaving him in his small one. Can u give some good stocking ideas with him included? He does seem ok in his little tank but I feel guilty.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! That website was so helpful! I can't believe how many fish get along with betas! so new plan: 1 beta 4 or 5 clownloach redtail or rainbow shark 5 or 6 swordtails Clownloaches eat algea right? My beta is is about 3years old already anyway so maybe I'll get the tiger barbs...

My tank is finally ready!!! Now I know the types of fish I want but I have a feeling its not going to work. Can anyone help me? I have a 29 gallon freshwater planted tank. This is what I want to get: 5 or 6 tiger barbs 1 Beta 5 or 6 Cory cats 1 red tail or rainbow shark The Beta and the...

THANK YOU!! When I get the cory cats I should still only put them in the tank 2 at a time even though they like to be in larger schools?

Hi everybody! I decided to start a freshwater aquarium and now I feel like I’m drowning (no pun intended)! I bought a 29 gallon tank, small smooth gravel substrate, decorations with some hiding places, Aqueon filter, a heater, some plants (I have no idea what they are. I got them from Petco)...
