2 months ago I bought 2 kuhliis, 4 various corys and 5 female platys. A week later a little kuhlii died. The other has been surviving and is getting big. About a month ago I started to lose corys. My 2 spotted corys died within a week of each other. They were big when I got them so I thought...

I finally did it. I moved my only male swordtail into a 2 gallon tank all by himself. I know that probably sounds cruel to some but he was real mean to all my fish. I've had him for over a year and he was slowly killing off the other males species in my tank, I was down to 4 corys and of course...

Hi, Its been so long since I have visited this forum as everything has been going well. About two weeks ago I found something in my tank. We thought maybe they are fish eggs. They are tiny, round, pale clear in color, and after examining them with my magnifying glass the appear to have a tiny...

Just wanted to say HELLO to everyone and I'm back. I've been very busy lately and haven't had time to visit the forum. I really missed it. I've had so much good luck with my aquarium the last two months. Not a single problem. I must be doing something right. I haven't added any new fish, I'm...

Well the Ich spots are all gone on my bleding heart tetra and I don't see any of my other fish coming down with it. I'll still use Rid Ich for about 3 more days and then do a good cleaning and water change. I did loose all three of my new tetras during this(they were the ones with Ich), the last...

I was getting tired of my test tubes falling over when I would test my water. So last night I came up with an idea. I found my kids little cup that you can stick a straw through, it has a soft cover. I found my test tube fit through the small hole perfectly and therefore sliced a few more small...

When I first set up my tank I went and purchased a freshwater master test kit, that was three months ago. Recently I purchased test strips thinking they would be easier to use. I seem to have a problem with the PH strips. The strips always say my PH is only 6.5. So I go and check with the liquid...

:?: I have three newly purchased bleeding heart tetras I introduced into my tank about one week ago and I did not quarentine them. Bad mistake I know. They all three have Ich. Nobody else in my tank is showing signs of Ich yet. Not sure how long it would be until they do. I have been treating...

:D Over two months ago I started my first freshwater tank, 29 gal. In my tank now I have two female platy's, one male pineapple swordtail, four various types of cory's, one male guppy and just yesterday added three bleeding heart tetras. All was going smoothly until I added two male guppy's. One...
