Hello. We just bought a 125 gallon tank and are looking for a way to light it up. It is 72”x 18 1/2 “. It’s a fresh water, no coral but would like to grow plants. Not sure what kind of fish we are going to put in it right now. The lights that come with it are far from adequate so just want to...

Medicine bag Hello and thank you for your reply. I did not know you could do that. I am new to the hobby and appreciate the advice. When you say medicine bag, is that something special or do you mean just a regular type media bag? Thanks.

Hi all. I am wondering if someone could tell me how I might clean my water after medicating in my 6 gallon betta tank? I understand that people use charcoal in a canister filter to do this ,but I am running a sponge filter in this tank. Is it OK to just rely on water changes to do this? Thank you.

Hello. I am wanting to start a saltwater tank and am completely new to this ecosystem. Any advice I can get would be great. I have absolutely no idea what species I want to keep I just really love the way saltwater tanks look. I love the coral that blows in the water stream, the lights ,all...

Ty . Everyone here has been very gracious and helpful. Thank you all. And thank you.

Hello fellow hobbyist. My name is Bart and I live in Fort Myers FL. I am fairly new to the hobby. I have one 65 gallon and one 5 gallon aquarium, both freshwater. I have already asked a few questions here that I did get great responses for. I probably should’ve filled this out first. Anyway...

Angelfish Oh, ok. Thank you very much.

I just got these guys but have no idea what kind of angel fish they are. Does anyone know? Thank you.

That is all great to know. Thank you.

Angelfish Thank you very much. That information helps a lot. I greatly appreciate the input. As far as how many I will put in this 65 gallon tank I’m not sure yet. I will do some more research before I decide the best number to put in there, but I would like to have four or five.

Angelfish Yes, I have heard this about them as well. Although I have never owned any of them. I do have 4 Rosie Barb’s in there right now but they are too big to fit in an angel fish mouth. I have heard a lot of people say they are not aggressive and then I have talk to people that personally...

Hello. I have a tall 65 gallon tank and I would like to get some angel fish. My question is, do they all have to be the same species of angelfish or can they be different kinds? I mean can I keep Pterophyllum scalare, Pterophyllum altum, and Pterophyllum leopoldi all together or? Thank you in...

Will do. And thanks again to you all.

Oh cool! I’m in Southwest Florida myself. And after doing a lot of reading I think I’m just going to try to make this canister filter work. Even if I have to put it on the side. The hob filters just don’t look like they’re going to work for what I have in mind. And yes, I have read a lot about...

Oh, I was wondering if they took the valves into consideration when they tell the height size. Thanks for letting me know that. Might have to do as suggested and put it on the side. Or maybe do A couple of Hobs. Any suggestions on a good brand of Hob filters? And do you think that would be good...

Oh, that would definitely be nice to control water flow. And yes. I’m thinking about the FX four. They say that it is 17.7 in so may just fit. Would also be a little more realistic for a 65 gallon tank. Still overkill but not as crazy as the FX 6. I guess I better take a measuring tape with me...

Very good question. And I should have added that in my original post. No it does not. The cabinet is about 18 inches high and I believe the FX6 is like 20” so that is also a problem.

Hello all. I am pretty new at the hobby and have a question I’m hoping you guys can help me with. My wife bought a 65 gallon tank from Petsmart the other day. While there we noticed they had a Fluval FX6 on sale so we jumped on it. Well I see this is for a MUCH bigger tank so I know it’s...
