So while I was at my lfs. I was inquired to help a man with his fish tank. He wants to pay me! I have been doing this a while. Honestly I'd do it for free. But why look a gift horse in the mouth? Anyway I can tell he wants to do a nice planted aqua scape cause he only has neons. Gonna be...

Evening AA (aquatics anonymous lol). I just thought I'd get a discussion going about the topic of quarantine tanks. I would say that my knowledge of aquatic care is at an advanced freshwater level. I have 2 planted tanks. A 10g and 50g. I understand that as a saltwater hobbyist, quarantine...

So I am doing a bit of experimentation with my ten gallon. I've let the algae grow out of control. However I've left my tank filter off for a couple weeks just to see if they could survive. Not only only do the fish appear healthy but they look happy too! I'm not too sure if algae is a sign...

Recently there's been some talk about LED lighting. I skimmed over the thread that Brian had posted in this forum. The light is a slick design. 74 LEDs 1200 lumens 17w 7500k I'm curious as to how effective this light will be. Also if I should perhaps give this a try or return it for a T5HO...

Decided on getting the fluval LED for my planted tank. Spectrum is around 7500k. 17 watt. 1200 lumens. All my plants are low light so it should get the job done. I've also got a red sword and a really neat crypt. Thoughts?

Hey everyone. I posted earlier about possibly starting a predator tank in another thread. But I also would like some recommendations for a cool setup for a 50 gallon. I'm open to all recommendations. I have an empty one in my garage.

Man those fish inside Walmart are in some nasty conditions. That water column is nightmarish. I enjoy walmarts savings for the consumer. But those are living breathing animals for crying out loud! Felt bad for those fish.

Hello my salty friends. Just got a great new job. I might finally be able to start a saltwater tank and not be totally broke. Anyway I've always liked predators. What do you guys think the startup cost would be for a tank around 60 to 70 gallons would be? Also stock ideas. Snowflake moray...

Just got a female GBR. I have a male angel ram in my 50 gallon. The female in my 10 gallon. Would it be worth a shot to try and pair them in the ten gallon?
