It's been a long while since I've been active on this forum (school and what not). And fish keeping has taken a back seat but here's my latest acquisition: It's a small naked catfish that interestingly has a similar patterning to several species of corydora such as C. melanistus and C...

Hey guys. So for a long time I've been doing FW and I thought for college I'd up the ante and do a reef. I've done FOWLR in the past before but nothing with coral. So far I've gathered all my materials which include: Prime HM TDS-3 API Reef master and other tests for cycling (pH, ammo...

I'm going to have to move a few pounds of live rock from houston to austin but the live rock will have to sit wrapped in wet nespaper overnight in a cooler. What should I expect to lose?

Will trade this used Aqueon pro 200w heater for a used AC20 or 30 HOB. I may be willing to put in a little cash or whatever if it seals the deal.

Going to be moving into a dorm in the coming months so I decided to build a reef tank to take with me. So far I've gotten my tank and lighting. Tank is a 4.5g rimless, curved corner tank. (35cm x 21 cm x 23 cm) Light is a 16w (16x 1w blue and white) LED fixture I got at an LFS. The color on...

PU in Houston: 35 Shipped: 40 + shipping costs first class parcel Available are 9 riparium planters and SOME of their associated accessories: There are some missing mesh screens that can be Diy, need a bit more riparium gravel and some hydroton (available are riparium supplies) , but otherwise...

I have a small collection of small cories and microsynodontis that I'm breeding (cories are a success, not micros though). Right now they're on a diet of NLS thera A and wafers. I would like to throw in some live/frozen foods but daphnia are too light to get to the bottom and bloodworms are far...

All stems are emersed: These might not make it to the trade because I was treating them a little rough but: Myriophyllum mattogrossense Limnophila repens Limnophila sessiflora For sure: HUGE motherplant of hygrophila araguia (I've been roaking this stuff a lot lately and it pains me to...

Are there any small like under 3" mid water catfish out there? Something like a synodontis looking thing would be cool.

Sorry guys I've been gone for so long. I got caught up in a few projects and I completely abandoned the site that got me re-addicted to my decade's long hobby. I'm back and I'll hopefully be here to stay for a more permanent time. I wonder who still remembers me...it's only been a few months.

I'm looking to trade off a good amount of stems of L arcuata and brevipes mixed for a submersible heater with a thermostat. Doesn't have to be big but 25 watt minimum. I'll throw in extras of course...although I don't really have many species left and I'm liquidating fast (tossing them in the...

I just bought 5 rhizomes of Anubias nan ( cost me 8.50 shipped what a steal) Cryptocoryne keei. (cost an arm and a leg but here's a pic [not mine] of it) I should get them on thursday! 45 without shipping lol (I've gone insane at this point) C. cordata KR01 Another $$$ plant Can't wait...

Well so I bought some pygmy cories... (they were mislabeled as hastatus but I got them for 2 dollars each anyways so whatever) I have 6 of them and I've had them for about a week. I'm pretty sure I still have at least 5 since they're always hidden amongst my plants. How can I be sure they're...

I got a request to transcribe my thread on TPT onto here so I'll also be continuing my little exploration into PTC (plant tissue culture) on here. Hopefully I'll be able to share my experiences with you guys. A few words of wisdom. PTC is NOT as complicated as my articles/sources make it...

Anyone read "The Complete Illustrated Breeder's Guide to Marine Aquarium Fishes"? Amazon.com: The Complete Illustrated Breeder's Guide to Marine Aquarium Fishes (9781890087715): Matthew L. Wittenrich, Alf Jacob Nilsen, Scott W. Michael, Martin A. Moe: Books It seems to have really great...

Out of curiosity has anyone ever kept many species of gobies in one area? I know that if you get similarly colored gobies there may be competition but what exactly is the general rule for bottom dwelling gobies? Also are there any top dwelling sw fish?

They're almost colored up. This male is getting some breeding colors already. This picture is great for sexing fish. The male will have this backwards curved protrusion behind the vent.

Print them out and then cut them out and fold along the dotted lines. Then glue together...tedious yes. Rewarding? Maybe. http://www.nettaigyo.com/corydoras/illust/papercraft/index.html

Anyone think this is a viable idea? Take a small 5 gallon, then construct a platform halfway up the water column slightly smaller than the foot print of tank effectively doubling the floor space of the tank. I know water volume is small but for bottom dwelling fish it seems like a pretty...

Well I was eagerly expecting to get my new fish in the mail today but it seems they'll be delayed until tomorrow...And tomorrow's going to hit up 105ish (it was 101 today). Is there anything I can do? I'm already pretty much resigned to dead fish anyways but what tips can you provide? I'm...

So I've been gone for awhile but I haven't been doing nothing! I've been researching and trawling the internet for leads on desert gobies. I've found one and they should be here tomorrow. So tomorrow will be picture day for these little guys. But until then here's a little bit of my research...

I'm looking into a mr. aqua cube or an even smaller pico aquarium for my first reef. I'm curious as to just how much a diy LED fixture is going to run me. I'm thinking I'll want to use a total of about 6-8 3watt CREES for this project. Any ideas?

Just pay for the shipping which is like 5.20 for priority mail...this isn't many plants though You'll get: a few plants of: Blyxa japonica Hydrocotyl verticillata 'low form' Staurogyne 'porto velho' Rotala mexicana 'goias' (kinda rare) I'll toss in some f. fontanus too. It's a little...

So my desert gobies should hopefully be in in about a week and a half so I REALLY need to get this tank set up ASAP. These guys are so cool! They're colorful and hardy and unique. They tolerate temps up to 100F and down to 40F. The perfect outdoor fish! Going to set this tank up outdoors in an...
