    Fish meds and the end of the world

    I was watching a show about people who believe chaos is going to break out and the country will fall under anarchy. One thing that I learned/found interesting is that many of these people stock up on fish antibiotics because you don't have to have a prescription to buy it. I hope things don't...

    Albino clawed frogs

    I was at Petco today and saw a group of Albino clawed frogs. I had never seen these but I think they are really cool. They were selling for 13 bucks a piece. I really wanted one but before I spent that kind of money I wanted to know a little more about them. The worker in the section was...

    Dwarf Hairgrass

    I have had dwarf hair grass planted in my tank for about a month and a half. It has not died on me but it also has not really grown or spread out. I have a 10 gallon tank with 2 23w Cfl 6500k bulbs. I have CO2 running and I even changed my substrate from regular gravel to an Eco complete...

    Last rights

    I woke up this morning to find one of my guppies dead. I have heard that you can bury them in potted plants. I read at it is good for the plant. My only question is, will it stink up my house? I know a guppy isn't that big but my wife is already on the fence about keeping fish and all I need...

    Moving tank

    I have a little problem that I am trying to fix. I have my ten gallon tank on a walmart special bookshelf. I noticed about a week ago the shelf looked like it was bending. I ordered a metal aquarium stand and assembled it. My question is, is it all right to move the tank with about 25% of...

    Elmo's goldfish

    This has been bothering me for a while. I have two kids and one of their favorite shows is Sesame Street. Elmo has a goldfish named Dorthy. Elmo keeps his goldfish in a small bowl. What kind of example are they trying to set for young children, lol. For such a progressive show you think...

    Plant ID

    Bought these in a sealed pack from Petsmart. They were about an inch tall at the time. Can you tell me what you think this plant is? (Plant in the mid ground)

    Lighting question

    Which lighting system would be better for my 10 gallon tank. 1 T8 15w 8000k bulb. Or two 23w 6500k cfl bulbs. I have a co2 and am trying to get my dwarf hair grass to spread.

    Stocking 10 gallon

    I remodeled my 10 gallon tank that I have had since September of last year. When I first started this hobby I was an impulse buyer. Needless to say I had a lot of different fish that didn't go well together or belong in a 10 gallon. I returned the fish to my lfs store and now have a credit...

    Led 8 gallon

    I recently got an Aqueon Evolve 8 gallon tank. It has RCS, a betta, and a nerite snail. It comes with a stock LED light. They was no information on color spectrum, wattage, or lumens that this light produces. I figured that low light plants would be okay. I do not have a CO2 system in this...

    Honey gouRamos

    I have a question. I ordered some fish, shrimp, and snails online and they arrived today. They all arrived alive. I get them in the tank and left the lights off for an hour and a half. Once I turn the lights on I notice the honey gouramis I ordered have an eye defect. One looks like he...

    Finally, a new tank

    I live in an apartment and have limited space. Right now I have a 10 gallon planted. After months of persistence, I think I have talked my wife into getting another tank. She is not into the hobby like I am, but she really likes the African dwarf frogs that I just got. Like I said it took...

    Cloudy Water

    I have a 10 gallon tank that has been running since September. I finally got the tank through the cycling process around November. All has been well until about a week ago then my water started to get cloudy. It was about time for my weekly water change so I did it hoping this will help. The...

    New 55 gallon

    My uncle just got a 55 gallon tank. He wants to put fish that he catches out of the river in it like crappie, blue gill, etc. I guess the rules for cycling and stocking would be the same. Has anyone in here tried to keep fish from rivers or ponds?

    Planted 10 gallon

    I just wanted to post some pics of my ten gallon planted tank. I think I am going to add one more fern in the back where there is an empty space. I was also thinking of adding some moss. Will it grow on my artifical log, or is there anything like that. Your thoughts, suggestions and comments are...

    Vacation, and freshwater

    Hi everyone. I have a 10 gallon tank and I am getting ready to go on vacation. I brought a pyramid feeder that is supposed to last for 7-8 days. I did a good cleaning of the tank yesterday with about a 20 % water change. My tank is planted so I bought an automatic timer to turn my light on...

    Sooner who is newer

    Hi, I am a new owner of a ten gallon tank. It all started last week when I overheard my sister in law talking about my niece's fish. It is a male betta and she had it in a bowl with very little care. They were talking about throwing it in the pond by their house. I told them that I would...
