Hey guys! So, we set up and cycled a 3 gallon for our new betta. Everything is set to 0, we have 2 live plants and 2 silk plants in there, a heater set to 70, and a tiny filter (not 100% sure what the filter is, it came with the tank. Uses tetra mini filters. I liked it for the low current...

Hey guys! Last time i was into aquariums, apps were only appetizers. I was wondering if there are any good apps out there for keeping digital records and reminders?

I have done both a fish less cycle, and a planted tank, just not at the same time. Looking into it, I was seeing a lot of “no need to cycle if you are doing a planted tank”. It’s a 10 gallon, with a male betta, possibly some shrimp. Which would you recommend, cycle or no? Also, what plants...

Hey guys! When I set up my 40 gallon years ago, I used play sand, as it was recommended, and cheap! This go around, I wanna use black sand. I’m setting up a 10 gallon for a betta, and thought black sand would really help the color pop! That said, I don’t need 50 lbs! XD What black sand do...

Hey guys. Got a male betta in a 2.5gal tank, with 4 ghost shrimp on clean-up duty. I've had ghost shrimp before, but they never lasted long in the 40-gal community tank (I figure some of the other fish got a little hungry). I was kinda surprised when I went to feed them all today, and the...

Hey guys! So, I'm totally new to the planting of aquariums. I've -always- done fake plants; no need for special feedings/treatments/worrying about fish eating them/snails/decay/water parameters, etc. But I want to set up a 2.5 gallon in my room for a betta. And I was contemplating trying my...
