I was wondering if someone can ID this guy for me? I bought him a year ago with a bunch of Amano shrimp. They were all tiny then and he looked identical asides from his longer pinchers. But in the past year he's changed color and gotten much larger than my Amanos. I'd say he's at least 3" head...

I wasn't sure which part of the forum to post this in but this seemed like a good enough spot. I was wanting to upgrade to a larger tank and where I have my current tank is next to a light switch. If I go to a larger tank it would be infront of the switch. Does anyone know how much of an safety...

I'm looking into getting some fish to hang out at the bottom of my tank. I'm using Seachem flourite black as substrate which from my understanding puts corydoras out of the question which is what I was thinking of getting. Are there any bottom dwelling fish that will do good with sharp gravel? I...

Is there anything else that can resemble mouth fungus? I have 2 threadfin rainbows that have a bit of white stuff around there mouths, one of them with a bit of stringy stuff. Its kinda hard to see because these fish have such bloody small mouths. I put them in a sick tank and medicated for a...

How are people making holes in their aquariums for their sumps? I want to make a sump soon and I havn't seen it mentioned anywhere. Thanks

I picked up 8 threadfin rainbows last week and half of them have a white spot on the mouth. Does anyone know if this is normal coloration for these fish or if I have a bunch of fish with mouth fungus?

I was reading the instructions on my new powerhead last night and it says its only to be used with a CGFI outlet. I know saftey first yadda yadda yadda. Is this a golden rule or just something in the instructions for liability sake? And if I do need to install a CGFI is it something a...

All the threads on here seem to be about sump design but I can't find an answer to a question I have. What kinda of glue/sealant is everyone using for the PCV tubing? I don't know if the stuff is toxic or not so I figured I would ask before going ahead with anything. Thanks

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to keep floating plants to stay in position without constantly getting pulled into the output from the hang on back filter. This keeps throwing the plants againt the front glass where they get carried down and get stuck in my java moss and I am constantly...

So I'm still new to fishkeeping and I'm not sure if my fish have fin rot or if they've just been nipping at each other. I've read that fit rot usually has a black outline around it but the fish in question are black phantom tetra which makes thr black outline criteria kind of useless. The only...

So I got some amano shrimp to go in my tank. The shrimp have made their home in a hole in the piece of driftwood in my tank and 95% of the time they seem to be eating directly off of the driftwood. Are these guys actually eating the wood or eating something off of the wood that I just cant see?

I have a 30 gal and I'm trying to figure out what kind of fish to get for the bottom of my tank. I'm using flourite dark as a substrate which is pretty sharp. I got a couple small pieces jammed under my finger nails while rinsing it and it can hurt. I've read that all members of the catfish...
