Went to the beach today and despite the legal technicalities I may have crossed I picked up a few periwinkles off the shore (I think that's what they're called- it's the "cone/oval" shaped shells that burry themselves into the sand) and a few live rocks-I think it's live rock but if not then its...

Starting a 29G SW. What's the recommended gph from a powerhead? Also what's the best API testing kit to get? Saltwater master or reef master?

Trying to build a budget tank here and with college bills adding up I unfortunately can't add top of the line name brand equipment to my tank at the moment so a quick search on amazon and I get a 800gph by tech'n'toy 16.09 and a super vp-110 530gph by sunsun for 15.99. Any suggestions or...

Ok I got one person say at the most have 580gph an the other saying at the least have 600gph. -_-

How much flow is recommended for a tank that size?

Excuse my newbness but what's gfo. And is a powerhead rated at 170 gph for $22 good or bad? (I meant to say powerhead not a skimmer in my original post)

Starting a 29G SW from supplies from a FW tank. So far I've got the water, sand, salt, a few pounds of rock, and a raw shrimp in there. Using left over equipment just for the cycling process I hooked up your standard, base model FW filter, a regent 10-20G filter and a 5-10G filter. So from what...

That's what thought :/ and I haven't decided yet. Most likely it will be planted though

I don't wanna do betta fish that's for sure. I was thinking of some guppies and something else (something small that is). Do you think it would be possible to keep any plecos in a tank this size? I would really love to because I really like plecos? What about a black ghost knife fish or a...

I already have a tank so I know the whole process so please spare me of that, but I'm heading off to college in a month and would love to have a tank in my dorm. I can't have a tank over 10 Gal, so any suggestions on what I should put in it?

Thanks geronica, because it is very frustrating to have out all the time and effort, not to mention money into it only to have die in a few days...

Ok so I'll put the heater in. And I just got home from work and my last guppy has died :(

Around 69. So tank a good amount of it out and just refill with new water???

Here's how it all began about a month ago I purchased two new fish from a different pet store. After they were added I believe they exposed the tank to something and it wiped it out. Roughly a week and a half ago I went to the family creek and caught the three darters. About four days ago I went...

Are there any plecos that would fit in my tank? Also what's a good but reasonably priced water tester to get?

The pleco is between one and two inches. And they're a type of freshwater fish. Just google them and they should come up

Excuse me but I'm a novice. While I know what overstocked means I fail to understand how three darters, not even an inch long, a pleco, three guppies and thee ghost shrimp are considered overstocked... How is overstocked? Second question is how does a peaceful and docile pleco, while not made...

30G. Almost a year and my parameters were fine the last time I checked, I ran out so I'm going to have to pick some more up before I can test again. Any ideas? Are darters aggressive?

Two days ago one of my guppys dies randomly then today I wake up to find that another one may be on the same path. I noticed him lying on the bottom upside down. when he tries to swim he uses only one fin and the other stays immobile. he also seems to be breathing rapidly. His tail also appears...

What is the best and most reputable place to purchase killifish or their eggs? Does anyone on here have them for sale?

A while back I lost all of my fish to (my best guess) a sickness that hitched a ride with some new fish I acquired. Needless to say it wiped out my tank. Recently I went down to the family creek to capture a few "minnows" and noticed a new fish id never seen before at the bottom swimming just...

I ran out of test stripes but I have stripes for a pool that I just used and the ph is lower than 6.5, other than that that's all I can tell. Just posted photos to.

I have a goldfish I purchased roughly a month ago and he was come really fine until now. He's been at the top all day with his fins just about to come through the top of the water. He's also started swimming funny somewhat. Just kinda seems like he's full of air. What's with him I'm worried.

So I did some research on the aggressiveness and I've narrowed down my options to this: One red tailed shark One electric yellow labidochromis Three angelfish Three glofish electric green tetra Two plecostomus Does this sound like an ok match?
