Thanks for the ideas :) I'll probably go with some fun little community fish, my 1 year old loves em.

That's a really good point, perhaps I'll aim more towards an community tank with it and skip the cichlids for now. Thanks a bunch, helps guide my mind big time.

It's dimensions are 20"l x 18w"x 25"t

Oh, that's a neat idea, I hadn't thought of Africans, I had thought they were all long tank lovers. Would you have any species suggestions? Thanks :)

I just snagged a awesome looking 40 gallon column tank that I'm in the initial stages of planning. I'm just trying to figure out what I want to put in it. I was toying with the idea of doing just a few NA Cichlids (done just about everything else, except Cichlids) like a pair of Firemouths...

Greetings! I have a little question, I've heard that there is a mod that you can do to hook up an undergravel filter to a canister filter, essentially the dirty water from the undergravel filter and pulled into the canister to be cleaned. Has anyone done / heard of / or know if it works well?

Hello, I'm in the process of selling off my saltwater livestock and would like to take the plunge into Lake Malawi Cichlids. From my 90 gallon SW tank, I've determined from other posts that I can keep my Crushed Coral / Argonite sand as long as I clean it thoroughly and my Tufa base rock as...

I've got the Instant Ocean epoxy.

Cool, I'll use my epoxy....I didn't realize you could use Crazy Glue Gel though...that's interesting.

Hi Guys, I've got a funny little question. My green Zoes are very happy, and have expanded to the point that a big section has fallen off their rock and is free floating around the aquarium. My water movement is pretty high and it can't seem to grab on to a rock. Is there a way to get him...

I'm selling the contents of my SW aquarium. It was in the process of changing to a reef. Everything is in great shape Sm Leather Coral - $30 Turbo Snails - $5 Few Hermit Crabs - $2 Funky Old Reef Mud (Trace Elements) & PH Buffer - $10 Saltwater Test Kit - $20 Large Fake Coral - $20 Book - The...

Hey Matt, They are nocternal feeders, have you tried feeding him at night? From the sounds of it the answer is "no", but has the eel's appearance changed at all. Faded colours? Heavier breathing? Behaviour changes? Jess

Hi fisheye, I'm a total trigger nut though by far not the most advanced. I've never owned a clown trigger before (but have had Picosso & Nigers) they are surprisingly slow growing so you'll be OK size wise in the tank for a while. He will get too big for a 75 though and will need about a 125...

Absolutely nothing but coraline algea...my trigger & puffer are the rock cleaning squad. :lol:

Very nice! Amazing for only 3 months old.

Welcome to AA....

Hi Guys & Gals, I need your wisdom I’m incredibly frustrated over some of the advice/articles on the internet and aquarium books. I love to research, (it's a curse), but in so doing I have encountered a huge size expectancy conflict on my Long Spined Porcupine Puffer. Live Aquaria & Wet...

No one's posted anything here in a while, so I thought I'd through a thought/beef out for fun. I was a dummy and accidently went to www.bigalsonline.com instead of ca. I couldn't believe the price differences. 10 OZ of the Bio-Chem Zorb filter media from Aquarium Pharmaceuticals is only $5.50...

Hi There, I have been given a beautiful old 90 gal aquarium that has been freshly re-siliconed. It's a rather old tank, has no middle support (and appears to have never had), and very thick glass. It is missing a small section of the black trim around the bottum. But other then that, looks...

Hi guys, sorry for another stupid question.. I have a 65 gallon fowlr tank with a porc. puffer & N Trigger. They are both young and will be moving up to a 90 gallon tank in the next month (or so). Trouble is they have picked clean the live rock, there's nothing more then the purple algea...

No, Picassos and Nigers won't work together. I had a Picasso, had to sell him when we moved. Once back into the hobby I got a Niger. They are very trainable also, mine easily ate from my fingers (and didn't miss) Recognizes you instantly and will be at the top of the tank before you blink...

I've had a Picasso Trigger, he was the nicest fish I've ever owned. Had to get rid of my tank when my family moved. He never caused problems, his room mates were a Volitan Lionfish and Young Panther Grouper. Make sure there's lots of shelter for them, including caves big enough to hide their...

Another option is the plastic cable ties, apparently you can use them too.

It came, it came...crud it's missing the pump! I picked up an awesome Berlin Classic Protein skimmer from eBay for under $100 US it's in fabulous shape...(but the seller forgot the pump (oops) and is sending it) My Skilter broke (piece of poopy!) and I've been without a protein skimmer for...

Impossible Creatures is really cool. You get to genetically engineer critters. Zoo Tycoon 2 is really cool and their's 2 expansion packs for them now. Warcraft is fun
