    New tank :)

    Standard 10g tank dimensions I suppose. I don't have my measuring tape with me, I believe It looks weird due to the awkward shaped piece of wood and the angle of the pictures.

    New tank :)

    I really wanted the gourami my 30, however that is a tiger barb tank and not only is it stocked, he is so small he will be ripped to pieces. I kinda want the gourami to have the tank all to himself. It will eventually be heavily planted. I dunno why but IMO gouramis are the coolest fw fish.

    Crazy glue?

    Can I use this in an aquarium? I want to glue some java fern to rocks and driftwood. I'm just curious if it's safe and the proper application. Is it safe to just glue the rhizome to any given surface?

    New tank :)

    Well I actually went out today and bought a blue gourami. I decided against a breeding tank, figured rearing the fry would be too much of a hassle in a ten gallon tank. I bought a single blue gourami. He is maybe an inch and a half. I'm planning another tropical tank , I figured I would let him...

    New tank :)

Never had a tank so small. It is cycled and kept at 79dgz. Hard water. Mopani wood some java fern and moss. I want...

    Overstocked tank, need advice.

    Also these barbs are pretty aggressive. Wouldn't they rip apart Otos?

    Overstocked tank, need advice.

    It's a 30g aquarium quiet flow. I may be wrong but I believe it's 200gph. I do plan on upgrading soon to either an ac70 or a canister. Im limited with hobs because I only have 12" of space before the filter hits the middle brace and flows over it, which could get bad. I'm in the market for an...

    Overstocked tank, need advice.

    Oh well, that's great! I kind of wanted a few Otos and I remember reading they have a low bioload but i don't want to push it.

    Overstocked tank, need advice.

    Pretty sure I am overstocked. I have a 29 gallon bowfront with 5 tiger barbs. Today however I received 11 more from a friend who broke his tank down, 6 albino and 5 green. I'm pretty sure this is seriously overstocked. I run a 30g quiet flow with ammonia removed carbon and a sponge. It is well...

    Wanted: Snails, shrimp, and a Large HOB filter

    I am hoping to find someone local (Arizona) who has some plant safe shrimp and snails. I'm also seeking a large HOB filter or a canister up to 55g. I am strapped for cash but I have a lot to trade. Brand new 29g tank. Bought it as a kit from Petco about 2 weeks ago. Using the hood for...

    Stock list for a 29g bowfront?

    Not the best pictures it's a little cloudy from transferring gravel but here it is.

    Stock list for a 29g bowfront?

    Can't seem to make up my mine :( I switched over from a standard 29 to a bowfront and so far it's fully cycled (thank you established filters!) and stocked with 5 tiger barbs. How would yellow and cherry barbs fare with the tigers? Maybe a school of tough tetras? I'd like a gourami but I know he...

    Tiger barb tank mates?

    Not a big fan of upside down cats though they would make an interesting school. I'm more so wanting a tetra or barb school that can hold its own against the nippy tigers :) I love cherry barbs but don't know how they'll do.

    Tiger barb tank mates?

    I bought 6 medium sized tiger barbs this weekend on sheer impulse, have always wanted them and they were 75 cents a piece! Great sale, and even better they had a newbie on register and she only charged me for one! Ha, anyway, they went Into my planted (somewhat heavily) and heavily filtered 29g...

    Swap: Ft : Java Fern

    I have a ton of Java fern looking to trade for some jungle vals, maybe anubias nana, anything low light really. Will post pics later :)

    Jungle val in low wpg?

    Absolutely Love the look of Jungle Val. I am curious how it would do in a 29g tank with 18w t8 and no dosing. The research I've done said low light should be fine but I've heard different from a few people who couldn't keep it in their tank of similar wpg. If indeed I can do it, would anybody...

    lots of questions! :)

    here is a video update . Relocated all the goldfish and by the huge bacterial bloom it's evident I'm still in the beginning stages of a cycle. Like I previously posted does the java fern look healthy? It's all covered in black dots at least some is you can tell of you watch in hd. I'm not too...

    Driftwood Releasing Air Bubbles?

    I noticed bubbles rising from my driftwood in a few places. At first it was one or two but occasionally it looks like a very very weak bubbler lol. It is heavily planted and in mid cycle. It may be mopani wood as well, it was sold as driftwood in the reptile section at petsmart under the brand...

    lots of questions! :)

    Ive always had good luck with gouramis. Id love emerald green cories but they get pretty big. I have small gravel but it seems a little rough so I may rethink the corked.
