I ordered Bug Bites Tropical formula, as I have mostly mollies, bettas, rasboras, a Bolivian and Dojo Loaches. I didn't expect much. In fact, I wondered if they'd even eat them. They loved them! Every one of them! I was just wondering how others' fish liked them. I use them once or twice a...

Got this new little girl today. She's 1.5 inches long. Do you think she'll be a marble? Or maybe a grizzle? Thanks!

My balloon Molly, Elizabeth, had babies today. (At least I think it was her--not positive). Anyway, she looks like she might have a prolapse (?) I will post a pic. Is there anything I can do for her? I don't want her to suffer. She's acting normally. Thanks!

Does anyone feed these foods? They are on ebay, and have a variety of sticks, flakes, wafers. I need to replace most of my older spirulina flakes, various sticks for shrimp and snails, etc. They have just about everything in stick and flake form, including some sticks that have krill...

My Kleiner Bar sword has some pale areas on the most of the leaves. I use the Flourish tabs under the gravel. Last one I inserted was 3 months ago. Is this an iron deficiency, or do I just need to put in another Flourish tab? I hope it shows up well enough in the pic. Thanks!

The bulb came off my dwarf water lily when I did a water change today. Is it capable of sprouting anymore? I added a pic of my water lily (with roots only and no bulb) and the bulb. I'm not sure what I should do with it. It's not soft, and it doesn't stink. Thank you!

My balloon molly dropped last night and I have them in a breeder box. I have the Finnex Stingray LEDs on a 20 long. The fry are right up at the top, right above them, very close. Will the daylight LED be too bright for them? I'm worried because I know it bothers my eyes, and I'm worried it will...

Got four balloon mollies yesterday. Two look really pregnant. Can you tell me when they might drop? Also, what color would you call them? Is the first one chocolate? And the second one, is this a calico? You can see the other one above her in second pic, and also a Dalmation on the right and a...

Young female balloon mollies. Prefer pregnant, but not necessary. HEALTHY! Colors are negotiable.

This is my betta. Look at her belly. I thought she had bloat, and that if the peas didn't work, I'd have to euthanize her when she was obviously uncomfortable. Didn't happen. First noticed it two weeks ago. She's still swimming around and acting more or less normal. Certainly doesn't seem to be...

Looking for two female bolivian rams. I live in S. California. Thanks!

I think my Bolivian rams must have eaten the six ghost shrimp I brought home about 5 days ago. I was seeing the shrimp on and off for a few days, and now I don't see ANY, not a single one. The only one that seems to be left is the sole surviving Amano shrimp that I bought online with 3 others...

Sorry took this pic at night with flash. My new crypt is melting. Got it less than a week ago. Other than that, I did read a bit ago that the crown should be above the substrate. Is this one planted correctly, or too deeply? There is a Flourish root tab under there too. Also, how does my new...

Ghost shrimp. For use as pets, not breeders. Must be one inch long so my Bolivians don't eat them! 5-6 shrimp would be good. Thanks.

I went and bought three more Dojo loaches today because I love them so much (I already had three). They are so entertaining! Anyway, one is tiny--only an inch and a half long. Another is about two inches, and the other is about three inches. The thing is, the littlest one is yellow, like my...

I don't use C02, only root tabs and Flourish Comprehensive once a week. I've only had this plant about two weeks, and there is already brown algae beginning on it. Oh dear, been through this before. Should I dose with Excel? I'm not sure what to do. I want to catch it before it gets super bad...

She still looks super skinny to me. Cycled 20 gal. L tank, have only seen her bite at food a couple of times. I've had her for over 2 months. She hides, hardly ever comes out. Have given her two rounds of Prazi-Pro. (4 doses in total). 40% water changes. Ammonia 0 Nitrites 0, Nitrates 5. Does...

Would this work in a 20galL to grow sword plants? Aqueon Aqueon 00456 24 inch Floramax T8 Fluorescent Lamp 17 Watt New | eBay

I have a 20 gallonL that has the standard florescent bulb, but I don't believe it's strong enough for me to grow a Kleiner Bar Sword plant, which is what I want to get. I also have gravel, not dirt. Would a 24" T5 that I can get at a hardware store be enough to grow this plant? I have the...

I recently bought an Aqueon 20L tank. It came with nothing, so I ordered a hood and light for it. (Already had filter, heater, ornaments, gravel). Don't like it. Light looks too harsh, and after having LEDs for the 20 gallon high I had before, this doesn't compare. So I want to get LEDs (the...

Well, as advised, I got a 20 gal. long two days ago, and transferred my Bolivian Ram and Peacock gudgeon into it today. Same filter and heater, so I'm hoping for not losing my cycle. Also added some of my old gravel. Here's a pic of her, looking much better. They had their second dose of Prazi...

I just bought a 20L Aqueon tank (with rim) that measures 30x12." Can anyone tell me if this Marineland hood will fit it? It's the cheapest I found, but don't want to order it if it won't fit like some horror stories I have read. Thanks! Marineland Recessed Full Fluorescent Hood - Black - 30"

I bought this fish about 2 weeks ago. She looked great. have never seen her eat, just pick at the substrate. I've tried everything--bloodworms, brine and mysis shrimp, NLS flakes, NLS pellets, daphnia, krill, shrimp pellets. She acted interested in the food at first, but didn't eat. Now she's...

Found this in one of my tanks today. I haven't touched it, as it's so weird looking. Anyone have any idea what it could be? Tank inhabitants are male betta, peacock gudgeon and Bolivan Ram. Oh, and 3 nerite snails.

Just got this Bolivian Ram today, and from what I've seen and read online it seems it's a female. What do you think? Thanks!
