    10 gallon probably overstocked but. . .

    I wanted to run this by y'all anyway. Rocco, my beautiful black sailfin molly (male), was moved to my 10 gallon tank on the 24th of December 2015 along with a male guppy. There were also about 25 guppy fry and 5 black molly fry in this tank, which had already been cycled with some real plants...

    The Disappearing--and Reappearing--Guppy

    On Halloween of this year I did a radical 75% water change to try and lower the 2.0 ppm ammonia level in my tank. I had three female guppies, one male guppy, two guppy fry, and two black mollies in the tank at the time. The next morning I looked and couldn't find Goldeen, one of the f guppies...

    Finally Got My 10 Gallon Cycled

    I think. . . Tested the water yesterday: .25 ppm ammonia 7.8 ph 5.0 ppm nitrites 5.0 ppm nitrates temperature 78 F (heater keeps it pretty constant) That filter has been on there since October 15th, but the gravel and ornaments have been in there since September 7th 2015. My biggest question...

    Fish In Cycling New 20 gallon

    Set up 15 October 2015 with 2 guppies and 1 black molly. Added 2 guppy fry about the 20th, then another black molly and 2 more guppies on the 21st. Ammonia has persisted at above normal levels since 25 October (2.0 or 1.0 ppm). Been doing 25% water changes daily, and even did a 75% water change...

    ID this black molly

    This is a female molly, right? I was sold "two females" but since I've learned a little more I think I've decided only one of them was f.

    So excited to be here!

    Hey y'all! I used to have fish when I was a kid (goldfish and the 10 gallon aquarium with mollies, guppies, and tetras), and have just gotten back into the hobby since my 10 year old is interested in "sciency stuff" as he calls it. We currently are cycling a 20 gallon tank with fish in (2...

    Black Molly, Ammonia Toxicity

    I have a relatively new Molly that is acting very lethargic. The tank it was in did register 2.0 ppm this morning, but the other two mollies and six guppies in it seemed fine. The tank has not cycled yet, and I'm working on getting my ammonia levels down in this 20 gallon tank. I decided to...

    My 10 gallon tank still hasn't cycled

    Bought a 10 gallon starter set from petsmart on September 7th along with 2 male black mollies and 1 male tequila sunrise guppy. Didn't really test anything (or understand much about cycling a tank) until 1 of the mollies became listless and died within 3-4 days (from ammonia poisoning I think)...
