Hi All, I really need some advice on this one. In my 125G tank, I recently added some Silver Dollars (about 2 weeks ago). The tank is stocked with the following: 1. 1 Rope Fish 2. 5 Cory Cats 3. 1 Pleco 4. 3 Bala Sharks 5. 7 Silver Dollars On Wednesday night, I noticed my Silver Dollars had...

So in my 55G established aquarium, I was experiencing a .25 Ammonia level that just would not go away after adding an additional 5 Mbuna Cichlids to the tank. In order to establish more beneficial bacteria to help with the small amount of Ammonia, I changed out 2 of the 4 baskets of filtration...

so its my first time keeping African cichlids in a aquarium and they all look very healthy and are very active so I think. With this being my first time with cichlids what are their overall behavior like? What do they do that is considered normal behavior in a aquarium? What signs should I watch...

So I have been doing a lot of research on changing out substrate and was super nervious to do so because of BB that was established in my old substrate and not wanting to kill any fish...... Well a few days ago I thought I had crashed my tank just by trying to get some Danios which I actually...

So earlier today, I decided to re home my 5 Giant Danios simple because they were swimming around the tank so fast that I feel like they were stressing out my 2 Angel Fish Big Time....... The Danios are super fast and super frustrating, especially when trying to net the dang fish. I ended up...

So I am going to put some pictures of my aquarium set up now. Keep in mind this is my first time ever using Rock, Driftwood, and Live Plants all together. I did the best I could on it and I am just looking for honest feedback. I am fully prepared for constructive criticism lol. If it looks bad...

So I currently have a 55G aquarium with 5 Giant Danios, 6 Albino Cory Cats, and 2 Angel Fish. I really want to add 3 Red Fire Dwarf Gourami to complete my tank. What are your opinions on that? I am thinking this is a good fish to add because its max size is 2-3 inches and they are not schooling...

So in my 55G tank, I added 4 Giant Danios to the 4 I already had, giving me 8 total. I put them in the tank about 2 weeks ago and started noticing that 3 of the 4 I added just didn't seem right. One of them had a tail that was bent down and the other two just look really thin compared to how my...

ok so I took everyone’s advice on here and purchased two angel fish today (I was going to add 4 to my tank but was advised I would be overstocking the tank.) so I put the bag in the water for 25 minutes then I added a little bit of aquarium water and waited an additional 15 minutes. As soon as I...

I was at the LPS yesterday and bought two potted plants for my aquarium. I was hoping the receipt would have the name but it does not, it just says potted plant. So my first question is 1. can anyone tell me what type of plant this might be? All I know is I requested a very easy to care for...

Here is a picture of my new set up for Angel Fish I want to add to the tank in the near future...... please give me feedback you may have. Does the set up look good for Angel Fish? What recommended changes do you have? Also, I bought the two potted plants today that are on the right side of the...

I had 4 Giant Danios in my fish tank and just added 4 more Giant Danios a day ago. 7 of the 8 Danios are swimming together like schooling fish do...... I do have 1 of the fish that just hangs out in the top right corner of the tank by itself...... they all seem happy, they do all eat like crazy...

Question, I have a 55G tank that has been running a 406 Canister Filter on it. I did a water test tonight and my readings are as follows: Ammonia - .25 Nitrites - 0 Nitrates - between 30-40 PH - 8.0 My tank has been established with gold fish for 4 years until about a month ago when I did...

I am thinking about purchasing this lighting system for my 55G aquarium and currently have the black hoods (2 piece) that comes with the standard aquariums at larger chains like Petco. Will the Eco-Bright light work with this type of hood? Also I have a canopy for my tank, will that canopy still...

So as a lot may know, I had goldfish for 4 years or so and recently had switched over to warm water fish (freshwater). I didn't know exactly what I was doing and with me being impatient, I bought fish and put them in the aquarium. I was dumb and didn't read up on fish keeping first, not really...

So this is my first time treating the disease Ich. I am rather green to fish keeping, and unfortunately I did not catch the disease in time for 4 of my fish as they all did not make it shortly after my first treatment. I am using the Ick Guard Tablets from Tetra..... I removed the filters from...
