    Is this ich?

    I was out of town this weekend and when I got back my Pearl Gourami looks like he is sick. I know he has some fin rot, but when I bought him he looked like that. It's getting better, but I think he might have ich now. I have attached the best picture I could get of him. The lower part of his...

    Feedback on How My Tank Looks

    I got 12 new plants a few days ago. I have never planted a tank before so I'm not sure what I'm doing. I plan on replacing the fake driftwood with a real piece next week. Any feedback on how I planted any recommendation on what I could move around to make it better? I can take more pictures...

    Advice on a light purchase

    I have been looking around for a new light. It's my first planted tank and I'm honestly at a loss. I bought a few beginner/low light plants yesterday. Some anacharis, wisteria, and something else I'm not sure of, but was told it's low light. I am using the bulb/light that came with my 38 gallon...

    Filter Media, Cycling, General Advice Questions

    I bought a 38 gallon tank a few weeks ago. One week ago, I bought 5 zebra danios and 2 spotted corys. I have been testing with strips (liquid test kit has been ordered, but not here yet). Ammonia got up to 4ppm a few days ago, dropped to 3 today so something was working. No nitrite readings, but...
