    old tank syndrome?

    I have recently procured a 50g tank from a neighbor. He has told me that the tank hasn't had the water changed in 3-4 months and the filter (fluval 405) has not been maintained in that time period either. The tank actually looks in pretty good condition, the decorations have some moderate...

    crayfish, bad idea?

    Two 6 inch cichlids, 1 pleco, 1 pictus, 1 leporinus in the the 50g tank. Thinking of a critter. Cichlids will eat most anything like shrimp and adf's. Crayfish are like 1.50 at the lfs so if they get eaten no big deal. Only fear is if it will be a problem for the pictus catfish who hangs by...

    40g hex front, first ever

    Here are some pics of my first ever setup which I was given from a friend who was moving. I'm only moderately pleased with the setup, I would love some suggestions. people seem to have creative rock structures they have built or unique drift wood setups. i feel like my tank is pretty generic...

    bottom dweller compatability?

    I love critters and inverts, what kinds of critters would fare well with each other in a 40g hex. I currently have a dragon goby. Will an african dwarf frog be ok with him? what about a small crab? crayfish? freshwater clam? small newt? snail? shrimp? What combination of the two, three or four...

    dragon goby doesnt look like its eating

    So I went to the store and purchased a dragon (or violet) goby for my 40g hex front. This is my first shot at owning an aquarium. I added the prescribed salt for this goby and purchased some frozen blood worms. Anyways I have attempted to feed him for 3 days and have not seen him eat any of...
