Sorry about the bad pics. Tank is bright and he moves around a lot. Parameters are normal. Spots just popped up after I changed the substrate, but all other fish are fine.

Hey everybody I'm extremely excited right now because I've finally found a job! You know what that means.. More tanks! I've had this tank for a few months now but now that I have the money I'm going to go all out. I consider myself an intermediate on planted tanks, but this tank is confusing...

Hello fellow fishkeepers my name is mike and my girlfriend and I would love to get into the saltwater part of the hobby. The only problem is I'm an extreme noob for saltwater. So basically I have a spare 50g tank that I eventually want to turn into a saltwater tank. I've researched it slightly...

Just got this in the mail, but honestly forgot what I ordered.

I was doing a water change today and saw this, I put my hand in the tank and it feels like jelly.

I've had my tank up and running for awhile now (about a year) and my fish keep dying. One by one they die, they start acting weird and go to the bottom of the tank and lay on the substrate and then a few days later they die. This has been happening for a few months now and I've lost 4 fish...

I think my platy might be sick, yesterday he was extremely lively like usual an I came home today and he was laying on the bottom of the tank. He stays upright but has trouble swimming so he stays on the bottom. His fins are all clenched up and im worried.

Got a few platys 3 days ago from my LFS, 10g finally finished cycling. Noticed that on both orange platys some black coloration around the lip, wasn't sure if it was some kind of fungus or just part of the color. I've got one white platy and 2 orange and both of the orange have it.

Picking up a 30g tank off craigslist, comes with an algae eater. Any idea how to get this guy back to my house in one piece? It's a 45min drive and I'm just a bit worried.

I've got a 10g hex tank from my dad and its pretty old. It's got a 12 inch really old floruescent light on it. Planning on doing a dirt planted tank. Was looking to get a new fixture, like a clamp on or something thatll work, atleast 6500k. Can only spend about $100, but anything less would be...

I've got a 10 gallon that's in the process of cycling and I just got some more fake plants. Is this too little room for the fish to swim?

I'm not entirely sure what day of my cycle its on, but ive finally got progress. After almost 3 weeks of waiting my ammonia finally went from a almost constant 4.0 to 0.25 over night. IM SO EXCITED :D Its my first time cycling a tank, its only a 10 gallon, but after it drops to zero how much do...

Just been reading some posts around about the wrong kind of ammonia to use and I think I mightve gotten the wrong kind. I've been doing my fishless cycle for a week now and I'm waiting for it to drop to 0. It doesn't have any ingredients on the bottle just says regular scent and contains no...

I've got a question about my hexagon shaped tank, I think its a 10g tank. Not really sure what to put in it because it's not that wide at all, but its very tall. Also I don't have an extra heater, so maybe some coldwater fish? I'm really not sure, but may get a heater anyway. thanks in advance...

I just started getting into the hobby of fish keeping and I've done a lot of research so that I kind of know what I'm doing. I just joined this forum a few days ago and have been reading up even more, but I'm still stuck on a few things about cycling. First, i was going to do a cycle with fish...
