Hi all, I have a problem that I'm hoping to get some advice on. I have a 5g tank with a betta in it and he hasn't been looking to well lately. Almost seems as he may have injured his back as he barely swims, using his fins on the side of his head only and has been laying on the substrate...

Hi, Sorry for posting in the wrong category, just hoping to get some quick advice before the little guy passes on... I have 4 Bolivian Rams in a 75g with other fish... paramaters are: 77 degrees, 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites and 5 nitrates. When I came home, I noticed him diving/sticking his nose...

Hi, I have a question I'm hoping someone can help out with... I bought a used 75 gallon tank. It's an all-glass that was made in 1996. It has a few scratches that I'm not thrilled about, but I can live with it. I have an option of getting another 75g tank that's only 2 years old and in...

Hi, I have a 75g tank with 10 Oto's in it. I also have a 5 gallon betta tank that's starting to have an algae issue. There are also 4 ghost shrimp in the tank. Do you think it would be okay to move some of the Oto's to the 5 gallon to help with the Algae? The 75 is crystal clear and I'm...

Hi, I need some assistance with some sick/dying Cory's I have a 75g tank, EC substrate, currently low lighting, moderately planted and stocked at about 90% as per AQadvisor. The temp is set at 77, ammonia is at 0, nitrites 0 and nitrates around 20ppm. I added 8 albino cory's on Easter. Two...

Hi, I haven't been able to find much online in regards to this and was hoping some members that have or have had 75g high tech tanks, would be able to offer some advice. I have a 75g tank, currently stocked at about 90% as per Aqadvisor, moderately planted and will be taking the plunge and...

Hi, I'm in the market for a CO2 setup for a 75g tank and I am looking for a Victor or Concoa dual stage setup. This is my first high tech tank, so looking for as complete a setup as I can find. If you have anything available, please let me know. Thanks! Alex

Hi, I have a 75g marine planted tank. I added 2 albino cories to the existing 6. One died 3 days after being introduced and the 2nd doesn't look too well. I actually thought he died last night and went to take him out, but when I went to net him, he started moving again. This morning, he's...

Hi all, I have a quad light above my tank (Aqualife), and have been using the actinct bulbs for night viewing. I have new bulbs being delivered (9325's) that I'm going to replace them with and wanted to know you guys are using for night/lunar lights? I would like something strong enough to...

Hi, I introduced 12 sunset platy's to my community, 75g tank about 5 hours ago. They ate well, swam around the tank exploring their new home and everything seemed fine. But now I notice 8 or so out of 13 are hoving near the surface, ocassionally making a dive or taking a real short swim. One...

Hi, Have some sort of fungus growing on my driftwood. It seems to be growing fast, it's in 2 places on one piece and another place on the 2nd piece. I also see some of it mixed in with the micro sword, but that could have fallen off the driftwood and just got stuck on it. Any advice would be...

Hi, I finally cycled my 75g tank and had the pleasure of introducing a few fish to the tank. One thing I'm concerned about, is the amount of oxygen in the water. I have a fluval 304 and the output is about an inch under water... there's some surface movement, but not sure I would say there...

Hi, I just purchased an Aqueon 10g starter kit ($38 at Petco, sale ends today if anyone else is interested). I want to run the filter in my 75g so that when I need the QT, it's seeded. The problem is that I've checked a lot of filters and none of the HOB's rated for 10-30g fit on the platic...

Hi all, I have a 75g that is in the process of cyling now. I'm hoping the cycle will be complete in the next week and have a question regarding the placement of the input/output of the filter. I have a Fluval 304. Currently, I have the input in the back left corner and the output slightly to...

Hi, I'm sure this has been asked a few times, but I haven't had any luck doing searches... QT and Breeding come up too many times :) I'm looking to setup a QT/Breeding tank in the event it's needed. Can you use one tank for both? Meaning one tank set up sufficiently for both? I don't really...

Hi, I'm in the middle of a fishless cycle and have my tank planted. It seems most don't plant a tank until the cycle is done. Since I have plants in and am keeping the lights to a minimum to avoid an algae outbreak, I wanted to see if there were any pro's or con's to using Flourish during the...

Hi all, I have a question about a 5g Betta tank I currently have. About a week ago, I noticed some small thin strands of algae on the tank. I wiped them off with the last pwc, figuring it was normal. Over the past few days, I noticed that the sponge that I'm using as a filter turned green...
