I have a 40g long and the stand I have doesn't fit the tank at all and I call the stand is starting to give way under all of the weight. When I look to buy from LFS they don't have a stand that can fit the dimensions of a 40g long. What are some suggestions of where I can find a good stand for...

So I have had my 40g long up for a while now. Unfortunately, when i had gotten my danios from the LFS they looked great and it wasn't until I got home that I noticed all of their gills were super red. =[ So i kept them as healthy as possible, but it's gotten to the point were I only have 2 left...

As the title suggests I am curious if I could convert a really small 1 gallon tank over to brackish to hatch some nerite eggs?

It is normal for angels to have an orange stripe on their top going from the eyes to the dorsal fin? -I've had him for about 3 months now. Got him as a little juvie -I don't use color enhancing foods.

I have a 40g long that I have planted with some anuibas nana, amazon sword, and soon to be some java moss and maybe hornwort. I have been looking at lighting and the stock lights that I have now are each 20" 24 watt bulbs. I'm not sure as to all the other specifications because I bought the...

I just got my tank fully stocked on Friday and all of my little fish look GREAT. They are all very active, happy, and get along really well. (My GBR actually rarely hides in his little cave. He's usually out swimming around with the cories or the angel) However, I've had 2 Albino pleco and 1...

This is the third day I've had my tank stocked. It's a 40g long and I have about 10 Glo-light tetra, 10 Danio, 5 cory, 1 angel, 1 GBR, and 2 BN pleco. They ALL hang out on the right side of the tank and I have no idea why. I feed the floating flakes for the tetra and danio on the left side...

I just stocked my tank almost full on Friday, and after feeding them today I realized that they have taken no interest in floating or sinking foods. All of my Glo-Light Tetra are waiting for the food to hit the bottom and then pecking it off the sand. This irritates my GBR a bit, but he does...

As the title states, but I'm unsure if they will go well with the rest of my stock list which is: 1-Angelfish 1-Bolivian Ram 6-Cory 10-Rummynose 12-Danio I'm thinking about adding 3 which I think will fully stock my 40g long. Also, will it do okay on sand?

1- Angel 1- Bolivian Ram 6- Cory Cats 10- Rummynose 12- Zebra Danio/White Cloud Minnow I know I'll need flakes, brine, bloodworms, and shrimp pellets for my cories. Will the Bolivian Ram take to the flakes or is there another better suited food for them (like really small cichlid pellets)? I'm...

Right now I have 1 heater in the back of the tank right in the middle. It's made for a 50g tank. I'm not sure if the heater is making sure the water is warm enough on the far ends of the tank. Should I invest in another heater and put them on each side of the glass as opposed to the...

Just started my structure a couple days ago. Here is a pic about midway through! Sorry about the poor pic. it's from a camera phone!

Title. Is the DAP 100% clear Silicone Rubber Sealant safe to use for a DIY slate cave? It's made for doors, windows, siding, vents, and gutters. It doesn't say anything about mildew prevention but it does say, "Meets ASTM c920, Class 25."

I've been planning on building a tall thin slate cave/structure for my 40g to help diffuse some of the water cascading into the tank from the HOB filters. (I know there are other ways of making the filter softer and such but I'd like to keep the filtration strong just diffuse some of the...

Stock list #1: 3- Apistogramma Cacatuoides (1 Male, 2 Female) 12- Zebra Danio 10- Rummynose Tetra 6- Panda/Albino/Sterbai Cory -or- Stock List #2: 1- Angelfish 1-Bolivian Ram 12- Zebra Danio or possibly Danio Choprai/Longfin White Cloud 10- Rummynose Tetra 6- Panda/Albino/Sterbai Cory -or-...

3- Apistogamma Cacatuoides 12- Zebra/Glofish Danio 10- Rummynose Tetra 6- Corydoras (maybe albino, panda, or really any I like them all) 40g long planted and my pH is around 7.6 in tap but because I'm cycling right now it goes from 7.8-8.0. I know I should keep my tank right around 6.8-7 pH...

I went out and got 4 Amazon Swords, a Java Fern, and a Anuibas yesterday from PetSmart. The Fern and Anubias look like they're doing fine but all the swords look like they're browning on the edges and aren't doing well. I give them about 12 hours of light, but they are buried at the bottom in...

I've read through eco's guide and am ready to get going I've just run into a snag. I have everything all set up to start but when I put some ammo in (about a lid full) the strips that I have are all coming out a grey color? Does that mean I've put too much in?

I just picked up a 40g long and really want to do some live plants. I've heard here and there that Water Sprite and Java Fern are fairly easy to keep and don't really need any added co2 with a decent amount of fish in the tank. I don't really need them to grow rapidly or anything, but I'd like...

Hey there guys this is actually my second post. I just did one about a 40g long I'm setting up and looking for some guidance with. A little about me: -College student working towards MBA -College athlete for 4 years -Work during school and sports -AVID CICHLID/DISCUS FAN. I cannot wait until I...

Figured I'd do an update for anyone interested! 7/24 I'm starting to get everything figured out and I think I know where I'm going (vaguely) 40g Long (48x12x17), Marineland Penquin 200, AC50, F20T12 20 watt 24" bulbs, and a long blue bubbler that I had left over (not sure what kind looks like a...
