marklaita This photographer is insane... I just stumbled on the website today from a news story(the photographer was bit by a black mamba, but is ok.) The link goes directly to the pictures of fish, but all his photo's are excellent.

DHMO in Aquaria and the Facts I wanted to take a minute to present everyone with a bit of information they may not have heard elsewhere. Dangerous pollutants are simply a part of the 21st century, but there is one particularly dangerous chemical I wanted to direct your attention to: Dihydrogen...

This will probably end up being a sort of catch-all thread for general fish stuff, but I'm going to start by introducing my new fishroom. I've been working on it for a couple weeks and taking pictures along the way. The fishroom is adjacent to the office. This was all one big room beforehand...

I was wondering if anyone had any articles or studies on the effects of drastic PH changes in the aquarium. I'm basically looking for some science to back up claims to better my understanding. I mostly ask because there are keepers/breeders who, in their (rather extensive) experience, suggest...

An article by Nathan Hill that addresses some myths that persist. My personal favorites are the snails and salt myths.

I'm looking for studies on the long term effects of temporary exposure to toxic Ammonia. I respect everyone's opinion, but I'm not interested in "I think it creates scar tissue that can't be used anymore." Or, "I've had plenty of fish exposed to some ammonia and had no problems, they lived a...

I was wondering about removing the plastic strip around the top of my tank. It's a 75g (the one in my sig) and its center brace is a 12-16" piece of glass. Does anyone have any experience with this? I'd like to see the top open except for the brace and the light (and tubes coming in behind...

I recently got a 75g tank that I'll be doing some aquascaping in. I'm going to have a low carpet plant on most of the aquarium, but one side with be planted with some various taller plants. I really don't know much at all about lighting and I was wondering what would give me medium-bright...

I just picked up this 75g, 48x18x21. It will be planted, but I'm not going to really start on it until my other tank is established, just thought I'd get the thread here and post any changes. Can't wait!

For those of you who have bought a few tanks. If you were in no hurry to buy a tank, how much would you look to spend on a 75-100sh gallon tank? (from CL and the like.)

Came across this: Thoughts??

200 bucks with 'accessories' tank and stand together. Looks like about 75g, guy put the dimensions of the tank and stand together. said 49"x 13.5"x 50.5" So I'm guessing like roughly 24x50x13 Thoughts?

So my wife works in a small store and apparently they've decided to get a betta. I think my wife suggested it and is now heading up this little project. Of course someone has already gotten the betta and they are bringing it to work tomorrow... They gave my wife a quart sized bowl to put it...

Why don't LFSs carry ammonia? When I asked the guy at my LFS if he had ammonia( knowing it was a longshot ) he said no, followed by "Trying to start a cycle?" I just shook my head yes and he said "Just use food, it works, trust me." I know it works, but I think you're missing the point. You...

Hello Aquariumadvice.com, this is my first post! I'm basically transferring this thread from another forum that seems dead. To start off I'll give a quick background. I have to confess that I'm a pseudo-beginner. A few years ago I started a couple of aquariums and lurked forums enough to...
