I recently tore down and RE-set up my 70gal after losing my Goby to algae treatment. So this is basically a new tank but with established filter media and an established piece of driftwood and a baby clown pleco. I asked my mom to pick up 2 comet goldfish to start the cycle and she came home...

My 75 gal aquarium just went through a random bloom of green algae and it wasn't getting any better. I tried changing foods and blacking out the tank for over a week and even lowering the feeding because I didn't want to use chemicals. Then I got brown algae on top of that. I had already removed...

Recently I decided to donate my common pleco, Behema, to my LFS. She was 15.5 inches long and my tank is only 16 inches wide. Mind you it is a 75 gallon tank but it was becoming a bit of a task for her to turn around, and over the last month she has developed more aggressive eating behavior and...

I'm looking to switch from gravel to sand/soft substrate for my Goby. I don't think he's ever been able to dig in his life... but I hate the look of white/beige/tan sand in a planted FW tank, it feels so unnatural. I think it looks wonderful in SW tanks and FW tanks that aren't planted and have...

So I transferred my fish to their new 150g tank but my son stole the rubber gasket off the top inside of my canister filter while I was moving everything around and I've looked EVERYWHERE and I can't find it. And he can't tell me where he hid it bc he's 2. I don't have anything remotely close to...

Dear AqAdv, I have this tank that I was given by my mother in law and it is a much bigger project than I prepared for. So here I sit at 1:38am sharing with you my pain and seeking your advice. I'm removing what has to be the worst seal job I have EVER seen. It's a nightmare to say the least. I...

I'm concerned about the new fish I'm getting. I'm taking on a very large aquarium from my mother in law bc she is moving into a very small apartment and doesn't have the space or the time for it anymore. She had 3 very old humpback goldfish that all eventually died off over the last couple of...

I seem to be having trouble finding aquaponics information relevant to my system. I have an established 120-150 gal tank. (Home built octagon tank so I'm rough on the exact gallons) I want to turn it into an indoor aquaponics system but all the information I have been finding is for micro...

Hello Aquarium Advice, I am Natosha. I'm 25 years old and I'm here because I'm diving head first into the world of fish keeping and gardening. Instead of getting a small tank and a fish or two to see how it went, I decided to take a rather large and odd octagonal tank and a 14" dragon goby out...

I have recently been given this very odd long octagon tank that I aim to turn into an indoor aquaponics system. The trouble is that the man who made it so many years back for my mother-in-law has since passed away and she has no idea the gallons of the tank. Now, I remember basic math and...
