I will be transferring the current fish I have in my 135gal FW tank into a 300gal FW (8ftLx2ftDx2.5ftH), as soon as it has cycled, and wanted to get opinions on adding approximately 6 to 10 inch expensive smaller fish that school. The reason for this thought is I would like to see some variety...

I went to Lowes yesterday and found some very cheap rocks that have multiple uses (flower beds, lawn edging, terrariums, herb gardens, water gardens, and dry stack wall) . I bought three 15lbs bags for about $5.00 each, $15 for 45lbs of aquarium rock is a pretty good price, compared to the...

Hello Everybodies, I'm a newbie to the aquarium world and would like to experience breeding Convicts, I've had a pair for about 2 weeks now. I'm trying to determine if one of the Convict I have is a male. I know the other is a female because of the red/orange dots on her belly. Both are the...
