    Cories- couple questions

    Thanks! What i meant by schooling was mainly just a group of one fish that hang out. I don't mind if they don't school or anything :) I don't really plan to get anymore fish besides maybe 1 or 2 more cory cats and maybe a honey sunset. I did remove all my shells just in case. Catfish lover- I...

    Cories- couple questions

    I'm going to arrange them facing down and buried a little so they won't get injured but sharper looking ones I will remove. And I put a wafer in about 20 minutes ago and they're still doing a number on it! Thanks! I love these cories, I had no idea they have so much energy!

    Cories- couple questions

    So I decided to get cories as my schooling fish and I so far love them!! Anyways, I have a couple questions. First, I have some shells in my tank and I remember that they can be cut buy sharper surfaces, should I remove my shells tomorrow? I completely forgot I had them in my tank before I...

    Pearl Danios picking on Harlequin Rasboras

    I had an issue with my zebra danios being nippy. I had to rehome them. They are now in a school of about 8 or 9 and are much better. I hope they get better!

    25 gallon suggestions?

    I don't believe platys are schooling fish, just a community fish. But they are good. I have guppies too, who are really fun and come in a lot of different colors! I have one with an cheetah print type tail. I use a website called AqAdvisor which you can enter your tank, filter, and planned fish...

    25 gallon suggestions?

    My favorite so far are platys! Although I have only had 3 different types of fish, so I haven't seen much else but my platys are very peaceful and fun to watch. I have a sunburst wag, mickey mouse, and golden twin bar. All very pretty!

    Finishing off my tank

    I haven't gotten anything just yet, because I think one of my platys has fin rot and I'm gonna wait until my tank is all treated, etc. But I may end up getting both? Like group of cories and group of tetras maybe. I'll see what AqAdvisor says :)

    Need some advice!

    I was in the same situation before and did the water change a day before because I was also afraid of stressing the fish out more :)

    Sea Salt in place of aquarium salt?

    Mine says it has an anti caking agent along with the natural sea salt. Can I still use it?

    Finishing off my tank

    Those are really pretty! I have never seen them though and my local petsmart doesn't carry too much :\ But I will keep my eyes out for them. Thanks!

    Fish Food Recommendation

    Mine eat API tropical flakes, they seem to really like it! Though, I've never used anything else and I'm a new fish keeper.

    Finishing off my tank

    Such a hard choice! But I do think I'm going to go with corys or neon tetras. But i'm thinking a school of corys. I was reading on red minors but I've read they can be agressive which is definitely not something I'm dealing with again. So I think corys it is!

    Finishing off my tank

    I'm still deciding and have a couple months to think. Are they pretty active?

    Sea Salt in place of aquarium salt?

    Hi, I was wondering if I could use just plain sea salt, no iodine in place of aquarium salt? One of my platys has some symptoms of fin rot. I am treating him with melafix and water changes but I figured adding some salt wont hurt since all my fish are brackish. My platy has been pretty inactive...

    Finishing off my tank

    Yeah I think i'm going to finish my tank with some neon tetras or red minors. Does anyone have experience with red minors? Do you recommend them?

    Finishing off my tank

    My petsmart is a little bit smaller than others. I don't believe I've seen the candy canes but I'm going there in a couple hours so ill post my options. Thank you!

    Finishing off my tank

    Unfortunately I only have petsmart as a fish option, and i haven't seen panda corys, but I'll keep a look out! And I have smooth gravel, but I do have a few shells. They look pretty smooth but should I take them out if I get the corys? I have seen some pretty long fin red minors, but do guppies...

    Finishing off my tank

    I have a cycled 20 gallon high and I want to finish off my tank soon. Like with the stock I have and I want some recommendations. So far I have 2 male platies and 2 fancy male guppies. Also two ghost shrimp. What do you suggest? I like colorful for the most part, but that doesn't really matter...

    Possible fin rot

    Just gonna bump this with a little update. I did a 50% water change and I'm adding melafix. He is staying on the bottom but is swimming to eat.
