Right now I have a few Kribs in there that I was thinking about moving to my 55. So, the questions is, what cichlid would go good in a 45, either solo or with a pair. I want something that is good size, ie not dwarf, maybe even a pair.

Just got a Hex aquarium from an uncle. Not sure how big it is, though. Just wondering is it possible to put a ciclid or pair in it or would a hex be a bit too confining.

I have a male Krib that apparently thought it's fry were food. The female did not appreciate this and would chase him off. I assume it was her that nipped at the male's tail fin, taking good chunk out of it. But now, it appears that it has regenerated. Is this normal? I have an angel in the same...

My male krib seems to be in trouble or something. His color is faded, he won't swim with the female and the fry, and he seems to like the heater a bit more. He doesn't seem to have any open sores or fungus. I put some API Stresszyme and Stress coat in there recently. Is there anything else I...

Jujst checked my tank about an hour ago, and, well, I have a "few" new additions. My Kribs were spending a lot of time in a 'cave' and I was wondering if maybe they were spawning. Sure enough, now I have krib fry. :D

This forum is a bit quiet. Are there just not that many aquarium fanatics in this great state?

I have a 55g with 2 Kribs, 2 angels, 2 Bolivian rams, a cory cat, and a bristlenose pleco. I am looking at getting a coupl of Apistos to put in there too. With the above info, would I be able to fit a couple of "shellies" in there without too much problem?

Ok, I am starting to set up my 55 to house dwarf cichlids. Right now I have 2 Bolivian Rams, 2 Angels, 2 Kribs (more on those later or in another post) and 1 corey cat. I am planning on getting more; Hopefully a couple of Apistos if the LFS can ever find them. Anyway, any advice on what I need...

I currently have a 55 with fish that I am going to transfer to a 45 then use the 55 for cichlids. I originally had a 20h that is now just sitting around doing nothing. I read in a magazine about Micro-reefs and was looking at maybe traying my hand at that with the 20. I do live in an apartment...

Right now I have a Fluval canister filter in my 55 gal that, in a few months, will house ciclids. I am in the processs of setting up a 45 for a basic freshwater setup. I was looking at getting another canister filter for it, but if it is not needed, I can go power or bio-wheel. Anyway, was just...

I was at a fish store a few days ago and one of the owners says he swears by R/O water. Is it worth getting an R/O system for just your basic freshwater fish (ie Danios, Gouramis, tetras, etc.)

Currently I have a 20H and will be getting a 45 and 55 later on today. I kind of want to try my hand at ciclids, as I have never kept them before. I do still consider myself a aquari-noob, so any and all advice, such as what size would be better, what kind of ciclids would be the easiest to...

I recently did a 25% water change. A few days later, I noticed there was foam floating on the top of the water. Is this something I should be concerned about? How do I get rid of it? On another note, what sort of supplies in the area of preventative medicine should I keep stocked? And can...
