Once my carpet grows out, will it surround and kill the stem plants around it? Should I cut a water bottle and just stick the plastic in the substrate to prevent the roots from spreading too close to the stem plants? Thanks in advance!

In my planted 10G I have what I believe to be a pair of scarlet badis.,one has strong coloration and the other has very faint lines and little iridescence. When I was feeding daphnia today, I realized when the "female" was really close to the male, he would nip at her, but she keeps hovering...

Does anyone know of a powerhead small enough to fit in a 10G tank? I'm trying to find a way to distribute CO2 evenly throught the whole tank. The powerhead can't be too powerful either, the tank will consist of about 90% frilly stem plants like myriophyllium mattagrossense, cabomba, ambulia, and...

Does anyone have any experience with keeping triops in their tanks? I was reading about them and came across a link selling them for home aquaria. The species name is Triops Beni-kabuto ebi. Do you think having them in a tank would be a good idea? I don't even know what they would eat...

I really want to get my high tech tank on the right track. Yesterday I ripped out some of the plants, and just left the ones I really like in there. Today, I planted some HC and its already pearling. My question is, which dry ferts should I start off with? Does it vary from tank to tank? Are...

Hi all! I finally got another tank, it was long overdue;) lol this one is going to be planted with low light plants like Anubias nana/petite, java fern, java moss, and possibly hornwort. I won't have any fish, strictly a shrimp tank, SOWLP (shrimp only with live plants) thanks for that...

Hi, in one of my low tech 10G's I have 5-CPD's 2-Sarlet Badis (male&female) I Was wondering if I can do another school of Chili's? Or should I up my school of CPD's? If i can do a school of Chili's, how many could I get? I was thinking maybe 6 CPD's and 6 chili's total, or 7 CPD's and 7...

I am looking to buy some ambulia. It will be going into my shrimp tank. I live in southern CA, 91754. Thank you!

I was cleaning my tank and he swam up the intake airline tube. When I reversed the flow, he came back out. His scales are gone in the front, and he can wiggle. After about 5 minutes, he tried to swim but he just fell back down. Right now he's just resting in my hand. I don't see any other damage...

What are these little white specs? I've seen them on the backs of my MTS Thanks in advance!

Hi! I'm extatic to say, next week I'm going to get a fluval edge 6 gallon! I want it to be a moderately planted, but I need help with that. How would I increase the lighting? Of course it would only be low light plants, like crypts, Anubias, and moss. Any other suggestions? I'm not good at...

I was looking at RO/DI units and I'm pretty confused. What should I look for? A higher GPH rate? It will be for planted tanks, but specifically shrimp that require a softer water/lower pH. also, how would I hook this up? I can't hook it up directly, so it would have to be through a faucet, is...

I've raised some Molly fry to adulthood, and I enjoyed doing it. Now, I want to start breeding fish for experience. I was thinking two 10 gallon tanks, one for the parents/adults, and the other for the fry. Should I do a 20 gallon for the adults/parents instead? So my question is, what are some...

Do you think I can add any more chili Rasboras withought increasing nitrates too much? Also, do you think I'm completely stocked? It's a shrimp tank, so low levels of nirtates are best. Thanks! Stock- 7 Chili Rasboras 40 red cherry shrimp 2 Otos 1 horned nerite 2 micro crabs MTS A Few...

I've noted many times that 1 of my 7 chili rasboras is usually colored up super bright. Does this mean that it's trying to show off to the females? Thanks in advance!:)
