i have play sand from home depot with my cupid cichlids (which are related to geo's, i believe). doesn't take that long to rinse it.

Another thought I had about your tank is having the 3 small schools of bottom dwellers. I think having one or two larger schools will be more impressive ( I read that you have a large school of glolights in your other tank). Also you may never see the 5 kuhlis in a 55g Sent from my...

I know it is old but I'm curious to know if the original poster still has the Pleco and if the fish became more visible Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

How's the gold nugget doing? I just got one and am having similar issues Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Hi anybody use New Life Spectrum or Repashy algae gels for their freshwater tanks?

Agree that the blue eyed gerties and pseudomugli's are too small. M bosemani and M lacustris (turquoise) are colorful and I haven't seen any that are too large for a 55 gallon. also they are readily available.

I got an email saying that they're running this deal on Aqueon tanks which I think is great. I recently got the deal on a 40 gallon breeder, but it was a Tetra tank. I don't recommend this brand. The silicone job was way sloppy and gooped up in the corners and is coming off. My 29...

My LFS has some great stuff. Fish are always big and healthy. The only problem is the Lady. As you may know, she was was off base in suggesting that my tank wouldn't cycle with sand as the substrate (see prior post). My tank is cycled and doing great. Then I took the plunge and...

Thanks all. That's what I thought. Both my LFS have some good stuff but are a little shady When it comes to giving advice Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

She said that my tank may never cycle because I have sand instead of gravel. She recommended changing out the substrate. Is this true?! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Watch them for a week. Exchange them if there's an issue. Petsmart has a 14 day return policy Probably will be ok if your tank is at least 20 gallons with some hiding spits Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Petco here had some Amano shrimp. I usually have only see ghost shrimp at petsmarco. Best bet to buy shrimp from fellow hobbyists

Hi. Can anyone provide me with a list or reference for which plants come from South/Central America?
