I have an old dresser that I was thinking about putting a 55 gallon tank on. It is a pine wood, no particle board. Would this be a wise idea? I know it is 8 lbs per gallon of water. Thanks.

I have a 20 gal high for over 2 yrs now. My initial 6 zebra Danio are down to one now. I was looking for new top swimmers tank mates for my dwarf gourami, glowlights and cory cats. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I have a fully established tank for 2 yrs 20 gal long. Parameters stay at 0 nitrite 0 ammo 7.8 ph 10-20 nitrate It seems when I introduce Cory cats they don't last long. Most of my other fish are almost originals - close to 2 yrs old. I've had a few deaths over the years but never any disease...

I saw an episode of Tanked and they had goldfish in with tetras and drAgonfish Is this possible in real life?

What type of goldfish is it and what are its reqirements?

What is this fish? Came with zebra danios but is obviously not one

I have a fully cycled 20 gallon I started in February with 6x glowlight tetra 6x zebra danio 1x dwarf gourami 4x Cory cat 2x kuhli loach Since I added fish, 3 Cory cats have died even though my water parameters are good, is it coincidental or are cory cats weak? The one I found tonight was...

I have a 20 high with the current stock: 6x zebra danio 6x glowlight tetras 2x Cory cat 2x kuhli loach 1x dwarf gourami What else can I add? Aqadvisor says I am 85% stocked Some ideas are rainbow fish, German blu rams, but I'm not sure if they would jive with the DG even though he seems very...

I started my 20 gallon long on 2/27/13. Dosed with ammonia to 4 ppm. Noticred ammonia level dropping and redosed had thought it was cycled when I added some fish, about 4 weeks later, now I know the error in my ways, I was too impatient. Initially my tank hovered around 1-2 ppm ammonia and I...

I bought an active sponge filter from angelsplus to try and cycle my 3 month old uncycled tank. Question 1 - how far from the bottom of my tank do I mount the sponge? It has a magnet on the side to hold it in place. Question 2 - how long does it typically take to remove the ammonia...

How close to the substrate do you mount a sponge filter?

In the future I was thinking of starting a new tank and would like a dwarf puffer, does anyone have experience with this fish and what (if any) would be good tank mates? Also, would a betta and kuhli loaches coexist maybe with platies? I have a 20 and would eventually like a 55 gallon or more...

I was on angelsplus.com looking at the sponge filters for an "instant cycle" of my 3 month old uncycled tank. I had a question for them since I have a HOB filter, he said I could hook the sponge on the HOB uptake, is that possible? How else can I use the sponge filter?

What type of Cory cat is this? They always look different at the LFS than when you get them home.

Can I use Prime and Nutrafin Cycle in conjunction with each other to cycle my tank? It's a 20 gal freshwater. It has a stalled cycle after 8 weeks. Ammonia levels hang around 1 ppm despite frequent water changes every other day. Nitrate stuck at 5. Never registered nitrites yet. It's a fish...

I watched an episode of "tanked" last night and they put 600 glofish (the genetically modified ones that are iridescent) in a 460 gallon tank all at one time!!! I wonder how many died in the first week?

I have a 20 gallon tank which won't cycle, I was thinking, does having the carbon filter in the Aqueon whisper flo 20 inhibit BB growth? Is there another filter I should use? I am using the one that came with it. I did a fishless cycle initially, thought it was cycled (but I was wrong) now...

Does anyone in eastern PA (schuylkill county area) have used filter media from a well- established tank that I can have? My tank won't cycle and no one I know has a tank. PM me thanks!

I have a 20 gal high with 6 zebra danio, 6 glow light tetras, 1 dwarf gourami, can I get a betta too? Would the dg and betta get along? Anyone else have these 2 coexisting? I know the dg is peaceful but wasn't sure about the betta. I want some more color and interest in my tank. The...

I have a 20 gal with 6 zebra danio and 6 glolight tetras which I started on 2/27/13. My problem is every time I test the parameters I get 5 nitrate, 0 nitrites, 0.5-1.0 ammonia. I have been doing every other day water changes of 5-10 gallons. Should I do a very large water change? The...

I was doing landscaping around my house with river rock and was wondering if this could be used as a substrate? It is about 1 inch around and round in shape. I would rinse with boiling water to get out the dirt and possible bacteria if any.

I started my brand new tank on 2/27 and added some zebra danio for the fish-in cycle. All was well early on, ammonia slowly built up, I've been doing water changes. My water has been reading 0.5 ppm ammonia, nitrate 5, nitrite 0, for the last 3 wks. Ph initially was high around 8.2 now...

I think it may have a slightly curved spine? What do you guys think?

I have a 20 gal high So far I have 6 zebra danio, 6 glolight tetras, 1 blunt nose minnow (I think) and am planning to get 4 panda or albino Corys. For my centerpiece I wanted a dwarf g or betta. Which would you recommend? Would the zebras fin nip with a betta? They seem to have endless...

In the middle looking to the right only has one black stripe on the side. It came with the zebra danios.
