    Plants roots

    I took our driftwood out to remove the long hair algae. This is the first time I've seen the roots of this plant since we put the wood in. They look odd, is that normal or is there something wrong? Thanks

    Help!

    PH: 6.0 Ammonia: .50 Nitrite: 0 Nitrate: 20 This is our first planted tank and it is struggling. We did a water change yesterday and used store bought water instead of our filtered water. Over night one of our fish passed away so I ran tests this morning and the Ph is extremely low! What's...

    Normal or did we mess up?

    I just want to make sure this is "normal" We started cycling the 29 gallon biocube 4 weeks ago. The the ammonia spiked and went to 0 in 6 days.

    Biocube lighting/hood

We want to have it be a reef tank and eventually (1-3 years) a seahorse tank (move...

    We purchased live rock from someone tearing down their tank this weekend. Hubby was arranging the rock and this was hiding somewhere in the rock. What is it? If it's bad do we need to do anything to the rock/tank? It's 75 gallons and only been up for 1.5 weeks. Thank you! Sent from my...

    Plumbing is leaking

    The last few days we have started to set up the fish tank again. We are running the plumbing from the main floor to the laundry room in the basement. There is 2 small leaks. We tightened all the PVC. We tried aquarium safe silicon at first. Then wrapped with miracle wrap around all the seams...

    Returning to saltwater

    We had a 75 gallon saltwater 2 years ago at our rental property. The support beams started to give out so we had to take it down. Now that we purchased a home we are going to set up another saltwater tank. I want to purchase a light for my hubby's birthday coming up. What kind of light should...
