    Anyone ever try a Half water- half Terrarium...

    Bearfan, your paludarium is great. I have an extra 10 gallon that I'm thinking about doing something similar with. I have two 1 gallon betta bowls, and I'm thinking about getting rid of one, and putting one of the bettas in the water, and getting one or two anoles for the land. I used to live in...

    Where did you get your dwarf puffers??

    I almost got mine at Petsmart, but the four in Cincinnati were out and didn't know when they were getting anymore in. Then I found them at Jack's Aquariums and Pets, for quite a bit more $, but I am impatient and REALLY wanted those puffers, so I bought 3 at $5 instead of waiting indefinitely to...

    Match fish to this tank and water

    You could keep 4, possibly 5 fancy goldfish. You might be able to have cichlids if you raise your ph a little (but I'm not sure about the gh)...

    algea wafers

    My fantail LOVES them. I guess if you have a fish that likes veggies, it will probabl like the algae tabs.

    Teeny tiny puffer food??

    I have three tiny dwarf puffers (freshwater). They are about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch from lips to tail :lol: I have tried feeding Nature's Delica bloodworms (the kind in the gel packet) as well as frozen brine shrimp. I've only seen them nibble either one a few times. I went and bought the...

    Question about Cory interaction

    I am not a cory expert, but from what I know, they can actually tell their own species from others. For instance, a panda cory will acknowledge other pandas but may not group with another species of cory. Try to get another spotted cory. You have several options- you could see if they can order...

    Crickets or Insects as food?

    From what I've read (and I don't know a lot obout Oscars, but...) feeder fish actually aren't the ideal diet for oscars. Apparently they are supposed to be only for a 'treat' because they don't have all the nutrients that oscars need and as well as the fact that many do contain...

    Converting tropical to goldfish tank

    I'm not sure, but I have a feeling that putting the larger stones on top of the smaller gravel may just create an ideal place for all the goldie gunk to get trapped under there. I just upgraded my goldie tank and only put some large (about 1" diameter and larger) pond stones in there, which...

    New 29 gal. tank

    I like the way silk plants look too. I have some. The only problems with them are that they are harder to clean because the algae and/or diatoms tend to get in the fibers. The other problem with them is that they fray over time. For these reasons, I am about to replace them with plastic. If only...

    Dwarf puffers???

    From what I've read so far on these guys, it is best not to have more than one male in a smaller tank, like a 10 gallon. Look for a dark verticle line on the underbelly that appears when the fish is 'excited'. Also, the females have more rounded bodies. I think I may go with two females and a...

    Here is a pic of my betta tanks

    Is there any way to convince you to share with us how you used report binders??? I have three bettas and my 10 gallon will soon be needing some fishies... My guys would sure be happy to move up from 1 gallon bowls!!!

    Help for a Friend

    How is the stocking level of the tank? I have a large goldfish who is really too big to be in a 10 gallon tank anymore. Lucky for him I've got a 29 gallon waiting for a new filter to be delivered this week. Anyway, I had the same problem, and I did vacuum the tank really well once, and then the...

    Dwarf puffers???

    I've always been interested in puffers, this is very fascinating....and, hmmmm...i have a 10 gallon tank that's going to be needing some fish in it soon.... :wink: How many dwarf (pea) puffers would be recommended for a 10 gallon. I like to stay on the slightly understocked levels, as it seems...

    Glofish, Jan 4th, and you

    Could someone explain why these fish are not allowed inside the boundaries of California?

    Glofish, Jan 4th, and you

    I've seen them at a local chain store. I think they are going for about $6 a piece, and they also had them under a black light. I could tell they were 'shimmery' as others described, but definitely nothing to write home about. And also, I believe a patent only lasts for 'x' amount of years, so...

    10 gallon suggestions

    Okay, after some research, I'm thinking of doing 2 panda cories (I already have one) and 5 white clouds. I really love the balloon mollies, but apparently they can grow larger and I don't want to just have 2 or 3. Any other suggestions? I like the fact that white clouds are easy to care for and...

    Eclipse Filter vs. HOB filter

    You might also consider combining two smaller filters instead of one filter. The reason is that if you need to change your media, you can do them alternately, giving the first one time to catch up on bio-bugs and then change the other one. Also, if something should happen to one while you are...

    10 gallon suggestions

    I also am needing suggestions for stocking a 10 gal. I'm planning on 3 panda cories (I already have one that recently lost his friend to a vaccuming accident). I was thinking of either tetras or perhaps white clouds. Does anyone have any experience with white clouds?
