    Anubias Plant Getting Holes

    Hello all. My Anubias plant has gotten some strange holes/streaks in it... Looks like the top layer of the leaf has degraded. Anyone have any ideas on what could be causing it? https://imgur.com/gallery/HAhNlOv

    Don't worry, I have done my fair share of research. I know that the staple of their diet are sinking catfish wafers and algae wafers, and you can give them frozen bloodworms, but how often do you feed them each item?

    55 Gallon Cracked Frame And Bowing Floor

As we were putting it away we set it down a little too hard and the frame cracked. Is this tank still usable? And when it's sitting on the floor it rocks side to...

    Weird Pattern On Pleco

    My Pleco has had this weird contrast between dark/light patterns on him. Only pictures can probably explain this. He is still very active and will guard the algae pellets I drop down for him. I suspect this is because of a 5 inch Pleco in a 30 gallon fish tank. What is it? I will get tank...

    Lights Keep Burning Out

    I'm starting up my 55 gallon, and making it planted. I want good lights, but the problem is one of the light fixtures keeps burning out whatever light you out into it. These look like Aqueon hoods. The one on the left is the "broken one". The fixture on the left seems to be doing fine. The...
