My sister set up a tank for her daughter and doesn't know much about fish care. I'm trying to give her a hand, but I live a few states away, she has gotten the tank cycled and they added these fish - the receipt at the store said zebra tetra - which I'm not familiar with. They now have ick and I...

Two gold gourami and two silver dollar fish all about four inches long. I rescued them from someone who was going to flush them, but my tank is pretty small for them. I would like to find them a home in a bigger tank. If you are interested in one or all let me know, pick up only. I'm just...

If you have any RCS available I would love to get some - I have 2 in my 30 gallon tank and love them!

Two Oak Trim, 24 inch, All Glass Aquarium Delux Full Hoods for sale, I am looking for 40 dollars for the pair. They are new in box. Below is an image from the manufacturerr's site of what that type of hood looks like. Located outside of Trenton NJ.

Do you still have tanks available? Where in PA are you located?

Hi guys! I am science coordinator for a small private school and my first and second graders are doing a unit on observing a pond. I'm trying to avoid using the kit because for some reason they give two tupperware containers and a coupon for an order that sends 25 platies at once! Go figure...

PM sent.

Craigslist is great, I picked up a 30 gal with iron stand for $30 a couple of weeks ago. :) Also if you have a local fish club that's great too, we have one in Columbus and I saw a guy getting rid of a 30, 20L and 2 10's for $35. So tempting. :)

I have used aquarium garden several times and have had good luck with them, most of the time their plants seem pretty healthy. They shipped a batch to my parents in december and when my parents opened them they were a cold stressed and wilty. They replaced all of the plants, and shipped them...

This is what the apisto breeder in our fish club is selling his for, this is what he was selling them for to other fish club members if that makes a difference. Apistogramma agassizi Double Red 1-1 1/2" Pair $15 Apistogramma borellii Opal 1/2-3/4" $5 each 5/$20 Apistogramma cacatuoides Yellow...

I would also try to gently push or pull in the direction of the scales. I would think it might damage his scales or fins to go in the opposite direction. Just a word of caution on Melafix (and probably Pimafix too). Melafix can harm your fish's labrynth organ. I killed my dwarf gourami by using...

This weekend I was able to pick up a thirty gallon tank with an iron stand, and filters, hood etc. for $35!! I am really wanting to use this tank as a breeding tank for either my GBR or my Keyhole Cichlids. I know my GBR have spawned in my community tank, but I haven't seen the Keyholes spawn...

If they have formaldahyde in your science dept they should have ethanol. It's pretty standard in biology and chemistry classrooms.

At the university where I work, I believe they use 95% ethanol in the preservation of their fishes. Many places use ethanol instead of formaldehyde, not only is it less noxious, but I believe that ethanol is not as detrimental to the DNA of the preserved specimen as formaldehyde.

I am interested in this also, I have a albino buenos aires tetra that is doing the same thing, swimming quickly across the tank while having these twitchy convulsions that are strong enough to make him turn. Then he'll run into something (usually the java moss) and stay there with his head stuck...

Has she given birth or been carrying fry for a long time? Intestinal or I would imagine a reproductive organ prolapse, can be associated with trying to give birth. I don't know much about it though. Prolapse could also occur with constipation. Do you keep salt with your livebearers? What do...

I don't know, many catfish have spines on the leading edge of their dorsal fins, and some of these spines have venom glands associated with them, but not all. I looked at the pictures on planetcatfish and they don't seem to have a dorsal spine, their dorsal fin looks pretty soft like a cory's...

Most bumblebee catfish sold at petstores are actually the ones from south america. http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/species.php?species_id=303 Is this the one that you have? They don't get as large as the "Asian bumblebee".
