Thank you! Glad ya' like it!

...if only I could take a nicer photo of the tank. I need to get a good camera one of these days. It's a 56-gallon tank with ten harlequin rasboras, ten cherry barbs, ten neon tetras, a honey sunset gourami, a pearl gourami, and a moonlight gourami. The harlequins were the first to enter the...

Two weeks ago, I had purchased ten harlequin rasboras for my 56-gallon tank, and all was going well. On that first day, they all stuck together super tight, but over the course of the next couple of weeks, were willing to spread further apart, and basically, all seemed happy and good. Today, I...

Hmm... sounds possible. If that's the problem, I wonder what I can do to minimize that, though.

The four "plastic connector" holes are pretty big, in comparison to the sponge holes, at least. Considering there are no fish in there yet, I have no idea what would possibly be clogging them, much less the sponge itself. Either way, it doesn't look like anything is clogging those four holes...

I have the sponge in the tank, connected to an air tube, cylinder in place, that seems to be working... I'm not sure how well, though. Normally, the bubbles stream, or whatever it's more properly called, comes out from all four of the "holes" in the plastic part. After a while, though, the...

When I was little... probably younger than four, but I can remember better when I was four, fish have fascinated me. My grandparents had a goldfish pond in their backyard, and a good friend of Mom had a hex aquarium. I loved them both, despite injuring myself on the goldfish pond at a time I was...

Thank you! I was thinking there must've been a place where it could be disassembled as such, but I didn't want to possibly break the thing just guessing.

How should I clean it? I mean, I know to use used aquarium water, but is there a non-intuitive way to remove the sponge from the base, or am I supposed to remove the entire base from the tank to clean the sponge? The filter didn't come with many instructions, and mostly didn't need complicated...

I have a question regarding the "limit the number of fish you add" part. I know there's little reason to add everything at once, but I do woner how good it is to add members of the same species little by little. If I wanted to add, say, a school of twelve harlequin rasboras to the tank, I'm...

Thank you! Yes, those are the cherry barbs.

Thank you! Yes, it's a bowfront. And I'm not in a rush... still have plenty of time to think about it, or what combination would work well.

I'm likely going to be getting a 46 gallon tank soon. Just such a beautiful tank and stand... I was considering a lot of fish, really, and I may have possibly decided on the following: 12 harlequin rasbora 12 cherry barb 1 angelfish I'd like to have the beautiful school of harlequins, the...
