    Apisto ID

    Ordered a few fish to replace some I lost after my move and I ordered a couple of "assorted apistogramma" but I have no idea which ones they are. Any ideas?

    Inline diffuser size

    I'm Getting ready to order an atomic inline co2 diffuser and I don't know which size to get. The 12/16mm or the 16/22mm? My filter is the fluval 306 and I also bought the rubber adapters so I don't have to replace the tubing.

    Lighting a 20L

    If I'm going for a low-medium light planted tank, would a two bulb T8 fixture suffice? Or should I do a single t5? I'm trying to stay away from too much light since I already have two high tech planted tanks and don't want to invest in c02 for a third.

    Ridiculously high ammonia

    I decided to test the water in my 55 gallon because I was having fish die randomly over the past 3 days and the ammonia is off the charts. The tank has been cycled for long while and I have no idea why it's so high. The only new thing I have added to the tank with the exception of plants were...

    BBA?

    I replaced my leaking 60 gallon with a 55 and in order to avoid having the serious algae problems that I was having before, I've split my photoperiod and reduced the amount of ferts. I just noticed today that there's a new algae on some of my plants and I'm pretty sure it's the beginnings of...

    Help!

    Before work this afternoon I noticed that there was a crack in the bottom corner of the black border on my 60 gallon tank and it was slowly leaking onto the stand. Since I was heading out to work I grabbed a 55 gallon from petco during my lunch break. Will the tank hold over night without...

    Plant questions!

    I've had some dwarf sag in my 60 gallon tank and for whatever reason it's not doing well. I have pressurised co2, I'm dosing dry ferts and I'm running 2 out of 4 HO bulbs for 7 hours a day. Does it take a while to adapt or something?ive had it about 3 weeks I also have some jungle val in...

    Sexing Apistos

    This past weekend I got a couple of Orange flash apistos from a fish store a few hours away. The guy said that they were a pair which is why I had to buy both. Looking at them now though, they look the same. Is there some way to sex them so I can be sure?

    Dwarf Water Lettuce

    I got some dwarf water lettuce from eBay in today, but none of the plants had any roots. Will they grow back? Or will the plants just slowly die?

    Temporarily overstocked

    I have 8 gold barbs in my 40 gallon tank that keep pulling up my newly planted dwarf hair grass. I'll be leaving on Sunday for a week and since I won't be able to replant the DHG while I'm gone I was wondering if it would be a horrible idea to move the barbs to my 10 gallon for the week to give...

    Cutting roots too short

    When I planted my 60 gallon I trimmed all the roots on the plants before I planted them, but is it possible that I may have cut the roots too short. My radican sword is growing new leaves but they're all full of holes or not even fully formed. The sand around the plant is filled with root tabs...

    Loaches and snails

    I know this question probably gets asked a lot, but does anyone have any experience successfully keeping nerite snails with polka dot loaches? I really want to add a few nerites to my 60 gal, but I don't want them to get destroyed by the loaches.

    Help me pick plants

    Well after an unexpected bonus on this weeks paycheck, I finally have enough money to place a relatively large plant order online. The problem is I honestly have no idea what to get other than some micro sword. I really wanted to stay away from crypt wendtii(green,bronze, and red) because I...

    What is this?

    I got a pair of blue rams from petsmart on Saturday and one of them developed this white patch on its side, any idea what it is?

    Too much light?

    So I have what I think is ludwigia repens in my 40 gallon breeder and I've got pressurised co2, I'm dosing pps pro, and I'm currently running 1 t5ho bulb (not sure of the wattage) . The new growth on the ludwigia however, looks like its burned kinda and the old leaves are starting to curl down...

    Plant mats

    I'm having a rally a hard keeping my newly planted micro sword down because the aquadurt substrate is really lite and the fish keep messing with it. Aquariumplants.com sells different size mats of various carpeting plants and I was wondering if this is a good alternative instead of waiting for...

    Aqueon/Python watsr changer

    At my old place I used the aqueon water changer no problem, but here at my new house my sink didn't have the right threads or something and I ended up giving it away. Well, fast forward three months later and I'm once again tired of using buckets so I'm hoping to buy another water changer if I...

    Aquadurt

    So I just received my order of aquadurt substrate from aquariumplants.com and I was wondering if anyone had any experience using it? The website says you're supposed to add their root tabs to help provide nutrients, but its my understanding that this is like Eco complete and it will store...

    Lighting a 60 gallon

    I got a 60 gallon tank for Christmas which was awesome, but I'm having trouble finding a light that will work well with the height of the tank. I'm getting conflicting answers with my research. Some people are saying that a 2 bulb fixture will be enough, and others are saying it wont and that a...

    Planted Betta tank

    I went to Petco for cat food yesterday and came back with a beta and stuff for a new tank! On a whim I picked up some dwarf hair grass and I'm just wanting to know if I planted it correctly. I know you're supposed to separate it into clumps so Im assuming I did that correctly yes? Also...

    Plant substrate

    I'm wanting to replace the pool filter sand in my 40 breeder with a sand plant substrate but all the ones I can find (Eco complete, floramax, fluorite) only come in black. Are there any others out there that aren't gravelish, but are somewhat "sand coloured"
