I’m trying to figure this out. Possibly injury? Ammonia 0 nitrite 0 nitrate 40 and about to do a big water change.

I recently got two red wendtii for my tank. I have black sand. Should I add root tabs? If so, what kind do you recommend?

I have a handful of otocinclus, a snowball pleco, and a twig catfish. I’d like to grow some algae for them on a rock in a separate tank and then put it in their tank for them to eat. Is this a good idea, and if so any advice? I think I saw that you can put a rock in water with liquid plant food...

Just picked up some rabbit snails not thinking about my clown loaches. The clowns are small but I assume this would be bad idea to put them together. Am I right or would these snails be okay?

We have a 55 gallon tank and within two weeks of buying our panda cories we lost have of them. We also have platies that seem to be pretty aggressively eating food that falls to the bottom. Water tests seem okay. Temperature is at around 76 for the tank and we were told that should be okay. All...

I bought this piece of wood but not sure what kind it is. Any ideas?

I saw you can buy fish online and have them shipped to you?! Is this recommended or crazy? Something like https://www.liveaquaria.com/ or saw this article https://www.buildyouraquarium.com/best-online-fish-store/

Hello! We aquired a 55 gallon with a striped raphael catfish in it. We are interested in adding serpae tetra and corydoras. Will either the tetras or the corydoras become food for the catfish? Will the corydoras bother the catfish? Thanks!

We were thinking of getting a small school of corydora for our 55gallon. Without realizing we could have gravel or sand, we just assumed aquariums have aquarium gravel and bought a bunch of it. It's the small smooth colored kind. Question is - are we fine to have 6 or 7 corydora with the small...

We have two pink gourami who are about 4 inches. They come up to swim sometimes but then often go down to hangout in the bottom corner of the tank. Im told they are about 5 years old. We were given the tank a few weeks ago and had a nitrite spike early on by parameters seem fine now. We have...

We recently acquired a 55 gallon tank from a friend.with 2 kissing gourami, silver dollar, large danio, and 3 large pleco. Had a nitrite spike and lost a few others but think we are okay no (new to aquarium care). The plecos have started eating, and the large danio swims fast to catch food, but...

Trying to run a friend's aquarium that was given to us just a week ago. Recently I added Melafix to help my Silver Dollar's eye heal from cloudy eye that may have been caused by an injury in his new environment. I later learned to remove the charcoal filter from the Marineland Penguin Bio Wheel...

Thanks for this feedback. What if it is only on one of the eyes?

He also does a little “shiver/shimmy” sometimes. Not sure if that is normal or not.

We just acquired a 55 gallon tank with some gouramis and a silver dollar. They obviously were under a lot of stress with the move to our house. Had some fluctuating water temps too as we tried to figure things out. Just noticed this bug guy has something going on with his eye. Should we be...
