    Internal bleeding - is it contagious?

    As I stated above: "My pH is about 7.4, ammonia is about 0.25, nitrite is 0, nitrate between 0 and 5." Petsmart tested with strips and found ammonia 0, nitrate less than 20, nitrite 0, hardness 150, chlorine 0, alkalinity 40, pH 7.4. If I could go back in time, sure I would wait longer before...

    Internal bleeding - is it contagious?

    Ha! My daughter resists naming the moss, but I insist. After she named the snail Goldie, the three bears seemed too cute to pass up!

    Newbie requests advice for 20 gallon tank

    Hello from Alexandria Virginia

    My six year old daughter and I are just setting up our first aquarium. This forum has already been so helpful, so thank you! We are so excited to have glofish and look forward to taking care of our little guys. So far we have 2 glo danios named Peach and Plum, a gold mystery snail named Goldie...
