    free fish in Tuscaloosa, AL- to good home only!

    I have 2 large silver angels, a gold angel, 2 green corys, 5 cherry barbs and a large synodontis I am looking to re-home. We are moving 15 hours away and with 2 dogs and a cat it's just too much to move the fish too. I am in Tuscaloosa, AL and will give any/all of them away to a good home. I...

    German Blue Ram -Failure

    I know water seems the likely culprit here, but do you think maybe the tuna had something to do with it? Are GBRs sensitive to mercury (which is found in tuna)??? Just another thought on this....

    Transporting Fish on Road Trip

    Hi! I successfully moved all of my tropicals on a 9.5 hour move from Florida to Alabama. I had them in a foam cooler and used one of those battery-powered air bubblers that you can buy in the fishing section of any sporting goods store or even wal-mart. It will cost you $10-15 dollars for the...

    HOB filter question for oceanic tank owners

    I've got a 37 gallon oceanic cube that I have been running a jebo odyssea cs4 canister on for over 2 years. The canister has begun to leak from both the outlet valve and from around the seal where the canister and motor head come together :( ....I am thinking of just getting a HOB instead of...

    Cascade 700 Filter... please Help!

    I agree with devilish....internal is the way to go and fluval makes good ones. With the hang on filter, you have to make sure that the intake tube is completely submerged. I have used one before on a turtle tank (all glass actually sells one....it has glass only 1/2 way up on one end of the...

    I did a google search and could only find one picture labeled "peacock" gourami...it was actually a dwarf gourami. Is he blue and orange?

    Methylyne Blue and turtles?

    yep- turtles can be prone to respiratory infections and such....so, just to be safe, I wouldn't add anything to the main tank that might alter the turtle's immune system in any way. A hospital bucket is the way to go!

    Meegosh, Yes, your ghost shrimp will molt...totally normal. Your ADF will shed his skin too...good questions to ask! Sounds like your tank and its inhabitants are settling in well :)

    Eclipse System 12 Stocking Ideas?

    I submit my vote for the cherry barbs as well....I love mine and I was lucky enough to find some that are bright cherry red- beautiful addition to any tank and they leave all of their tank mates alone too :)

    Python ?

    That makes a lot of sense....I will try that to see if it works....the sleeve on mine was a little bit loose no matter what I tried.

    Python ?

    Wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem....bought a new python and hooked it up according to the directions. It subsequently leaked, sprayed, etc. from every possible place on the end that connects to the faucet. The male adaptor, every place it could possibly leak from the green...

    New to Ponds - Heater Question

    I have a 90 gallon preformed and successfully used a regular aquarium heater last winter. The suction cups held it off the side of the pond and it heated the pond just fine (I have fancy goldfish in it). I know that they aren't techically rated for outdoor use, but it seemed to work out just...

    Freshwater tarpon?

    Did it have anything resembling barbels or antennae near the mouth? On first thought, I think an arowanna has a "similar" look as a juvenile.
