    Confused over water test results

    Background: I set up a 10 gallon tank about 3 weeks ago, added plants. After about a week, I got a betta (fish-in cycle). I used Tank Buster which is a product like Quick Start that is produced by my LFS. I tested my water parameters nightly for about a week and there was no change (0...

    Went to buy plants....bought betta instead

    I made the mistake of going to Petland with my 3yo in tow. I went to see what they had for plants there since it's a lot closer than my normal LFS and my daughter saw a betta and wouldn't leave until we bought it. So no plants for me.. but, hey..finally have a fish in my tank.... Ignore the...

    Returning to fish after 6-7 years off...

    I was here before, but not an active poster (obv by my post count). Previously I had several tanks.. by the end of it, I had 4. From a 90gal oscar tank to my little 2-3 gallon hex tank. Now I'm getting back into it... and am amazed that I have forgotten SO MUCH. The basics I know.. but many...

    10 Gallon Planted - Back after a long hiatus

    I totally posted to the wrong forum here. But hey, while I'm here...I have some questions!!! I have basically forgotten 90% of everything in the last 10 years. I am starting over with a 10 gallon tank and went to my (usually fantastic) LFS.. and I know I overbought. So I'm debating now...

    Hi, I'm about to set up 2 new tanks and am looking for advice with what plants, light, etc to use. Here's the basic setup for both. Tank 1 - 2 gallon hex, will house a betta, 15W bulb which will probably have to be replaced? I'm thinking i want to put real plants in here, but this is still...

    Not really that new to the forum...

    Well, after lurking for eons, i think its time i should probably introduce myself :D I've had fish for over 2 yrs now (geesh, time has flown). My brother had a tradition with friends that whenever anyone moved out of their parents place, he'd buy them fish. So, when i moved out of my parents...

    Snails out of control

    I have a huge snail problem going on. One hitch-hiked in on a plant and my tank has been a snail haven ever since. I remove all the eggs i find (usually several clumps a day) but there is no way to find them all in the dense plants. I've tried baiting them, but they have absolutely zero...
