So I have been out of the hobby since early 2015. Moved a lot since then but long story short, got an used Eheim 24L (about 6g) with a height of 12”. I have a 12” Ecoxotic that is acting up since the 1 year of usage (turning itself off when it gets hot), so it might be time for me to get an...

Hello fellow AA'ers, I recently received and accepted a job offer in NYC, and things are moving fast. Unfortunately, I will have to adapt to a new urban lifestyle, including transforming my 2 bedroom house into a 1 bedroom apartment. Here is what I have available: 60 gallon tall Marineland...

Got this guy/gal as a left over of a local club auction. It came is very pale, almost see through, but is now eating and not shy of light anymore. I am wondering if it is one of those self cloning ones from germany or something else. Is it safe for a planted tank or my plants will be chopped...

Greetings, I am about to purchase a young tiger oscar, but the ultimate goal is to have it as a living room center piece Brazilian biotope. The entire idea stated about 4 years ago, but I did not have the resources to get anything bigger than 75 gallons. Well, things changed, and I am here to...

I am currently dealing with my first large tank (well, coming from nano cubes with a single betta in each, 60gallons is pretty big at this point) and I am quite happy with my setup: Marineland 60 Gallon tall tank (from Petsmart, got it with a stand for under $220) Organic dirt under gravel...

I have been successfully breeding bettas and playing with high-tech/high light tanks for the last 3 years. My biggest tank was a 7.7 gallon. Recently I decided to bring things up to a new level, and purchased a 60g tank from marineland. More info about the tank here...

I am a member of the International Betta Congress and I have been successfully breeding bettas since the beginning of 2012. Even though I do not follow show standards, my fish are significantly more symmetric and better developed than the ones you would normally found at your local fish place...

After several atempts to sell my 7.7 cubes from Mr. Aqua, I decided to rearrange some furniture and have 1 of my male bettas staying with me in the bedroom. Here is what I have to upcycle and make this tank viable: Heater Sponge filter Substrate 2 finnex fugeray Plants from the office tank...

The time to go big AND go home has arrived. I am planning on having my first large tank (20+gal), high tech, high maintenance, high cost, high class, double high five by February 15th. I foresee strong dutch influence, at least 3 species of red plants, shrimp and (you got it) a 10+ betta...

For those that don't know, I typically plan my tanks in advance and I rely on other people's experience to make things cheaper and less messy. Here is a picture of my last concept that the wonderful members of this community helped me with: I learned a lot since then and I am ready to more to...

I have 3 brand new 10 gallon tanks that I was planning on using to breed bettas this summer but I just got a job in Boston and will be shutting down my Florida operations. Free for a good home, but some symbolic donation is welcome. The tanks are in Winter Park, Florida (32789)

I recently got a job in Boston and will be relocating from Florida within 2 weeks. Everything must go, so I will be listing other items soon. There are a lot of things going on (selling furniture, looking for a place to stay, etc), so shipping is not an option. i am in Winter Park, Florida...

So today I officially transfered, permanently, my 2 bettas to their official homes (the teiple cube concept). So now I have "behind the scenes" 1 39 gallon tank, 1 10 gallon tank and 2 2.5 tanks. Since I have 2 Fugerays (R) as spare lights, I am strongly considering making one of them a hassle...

Let's not make this a big deal, but I would love to learn to avoid it in the future: A pair of red cherry shrimp were given to me and placed on an aquacube 7.5 gallon. They were doing well, eating their algae, playing arround, being active. I har to rescape my cube with ADA Aquasoil, so to...

Any advice on avoiding water to climb up the CO2 hose? My CO2 tank can take up to 20 minutes just pushing water out of the system before actually starting to difuse. As a matter of fact, all 3 tanks have fludded difusers....:(

For those that haven't followed my saga, I am new to the hobby (started my studies/joined the forum in November 2012) and I only have one tank, but I am ready to bring things to the next level. Since I really like Betta fish, the idea is to have 3 independent tanks that form a single aquascape...

I am in the process of putting together 3 cubes forming one single 3ft long aquascape. they will have a finnex fugeray, filtration and heat, but I am not sure about CO2 yet. I will be using DIY dry ferts (Osmocote+ on gelatin caps or ice), liquid ferts, iron and Gluta. 2 of the tanks will...

I have been working on a custom stand that will allow me to have 3 Mr. Aqua low iron cubes forming one single aquascape. These tanks will be heavily planted, with liquid carbon, iron, dry ferts and possibly CO2. The initial concept was to have 3 male bettas but my wife is showing a desire to...

So today I had a casual conversation inside PetCo with an older lady that was buying about 1/2 dozen Brazilian Swords. Since I am from Brazil, we started talking about biodiversity etc, and the lady seems to be quite knowledgeable about planted tanks. However, she mentioned that for the past 7...

I just placed an order for the TruAqua low iron cube, and I have a Mr. Aqua (same dimensions). I am just creating the topic to see if others are interested in learning more about these two, compared side by side. Because of the price difference, if enough people show interest, I can make a...

I recently purchased some baby tears to my 7.7g aquacube (with enough lighting and daily carbon) but my tank is set as a betta tank. Being the fish my priority, the water temperature is a constant 79F, and I was wondering if baby tears would thrive better on colder waters. I believe I did a...

Here are two pictures of my 7.7gallon aquacube, before and after I traded some plants and did some trimming. I don't believe we should dose carbon based on water volume as the direction of Excel recommends. I was using 2.5ml/ day after Wildcats recommended that instead of 5ml every other day...
