I got a used aquarium from my neighbor today and it has a light fixture on it that still works. It's probably about 15-18 years old. Will this be safe to use on the tank? As I said, it still works fine, but would it be safer to just buy a new one? I obviously don't want it to explode or...

My neighbor is giving me her old 20 gallon tank as payment for helping her wax her boat, but it's all dirty and gross. What's the best way to clean it before I start to cycle it?

I'm getting the carpet in my bedroom replaced and will have to move my 29G out into the hallway (about 20 ft from where it is now). I know how to make the move, but I was wondering if I should keep the tank in the hallway for a few days after the new carpet has been installed so the fish aren't...

I don't know if anyone will be able to answer this, but I have a 29 gallon tank. It's been up and running for 4 to 5 years. I do frequent water changes, have never removed the gravel, and don't change all of the filter inserts at once. All of a sudden my nitrates are at zero, my ammonia is high...

I'm having trouble with super-long hair algae in my 29 gallon. I leave the light on for 3 hours to see if that helps, but it just keeps coming! I scrub it off of everything every week, but it comes back. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get rid of it?

I have a 29 gallon tank with high intensity lighting and am using two fertilizers at the moment, but all of my plants seem to be turning brown. My tank is 19 inches deep. What fertilizers are recommended? EDIT: In my tank are 6 silver-tipped tetras, 3 leopard danios, 3 Glofish (zebra danios)...

I've been looking at all of LFSs and I can't find Red Cherry Shrimp anywhere! Does anyone know of an online store that sells them? Thanks!

I've been thinking of setting up a tank for just a few puffers, and I've been researching them. I've found information that tells me that they're freshwater, and information that tells me they're brackish and information that tells me they can be either! Does anyone know the truth? And, how hard...

This is my 29 gallon bowfront tank.

I'm trying to convince my parents to let me get a second tank, and I just want a small one. Nothing more than 20 g. I saw a 14 g Biocube at our local Petco and I was wondering if those are good tanks? Thanks!

Hey guys! I'm new here (obviously) and can't wait to meet everyone! I ADORE fish! I have a 29 gallon aquarium that's been established for 3 years. Right now I have 6 silver-tipped tetras, 3 leopard danios, 5 shrimp (not sure what kind) and a bunch of plants in it! Other than my fish tank I love...
