I am interested in the idea of starting a dwarf seahorse tank (well my girlfriend is more than me). I have a 10g tank that has been set up for a month or so with about 7lbs of dry rock and a little of an inch live sand. My goal is to take this slowly. Right now the tank has some nassarius snails...

Hello all, I currently have 4 tanks, 1 10g shrimp tank, 1 10g sw tank, 1 55g fw tank, and an empty 55g sitting in my garage. The reason I haven't set up the other one is because I need a stand and stuff. So here is my main questions. How durable is the stand in this link Aquarium Stands &...

I started a 10g saltwater tank back in July and just added my first corals last week. I only added yellow polyps and dragon eye zoas. I am currently running two 6500k CFLS in the stock hood. I have a glass hood on the way from drsfosterandsmith and have been shopping around for a new fixture. I...

Hi, it's been awhile since I've posted on here. Basically what I want to know is what are the benefits of switching to a 50/50 light. I'll link what I have currently below and what I'm wanting it compared with. I plan to have some softies in the future, but it will be months down the road. Zoo...

So I bought a BN Pleco a few days ago and decided to get him some driftwood. I was at petco looking at the diff DW they had and I ended up buying two separate pieces. One had anubias growing on it, and honestly the only reason I bougt it weas because it had these little black snails on it (not...

Alright so in the past few days I've had two albino cories die and i believe I know the reasons, I just want to explain what happened and get some confirmation before I go buy more cories. So the cories were pretty small, one was way smaller than the others. Well when I first added them one of...

So I see all these post of these beautiful tanks with rocks and driftwood and the such in them. My question is where do you find these rocks/driftwood? Random stuff in the woods? Or is it stuff people buy?

I live in the spartanburg area of sc (29330) looking for some mts! Anyone have any they would part with at a good price? I just switched to sand in my 55 and would like some of these snails to aerate it! Thanks!

I know this question has been asked 100 times but every individual situation is different. I am looking to change from my multicolored gravel to black sand. I found some black rock blasting sand for about 8 bucks (50lbs) at tractor supply. I want to change my 55g to sand to make it look nicer...

So my friend bought me a bamboo shrimp awhile back and decided he didn't like it because it isn't active, so a few days ago he decided to buy me some crayfish. He said the tag said Red Swamp Crayfish, but I can't find anything on google that looks like mine. They are pretty active and have...

Hello, I have a 55g tank with low lighting and I'm interested in upgrading them. I was looking at several DIY setups and was curious if I could use the same housing the T8 ballast is in to install a different ballast. The tanks is 4ft long and it has one T8 on both sides. I'd like to get...

So about 2 weeks ago I purchased some Frogbit online. I was sent about 6 different frogbit plants and I placed 3 in my 10g and 3 in my 55g. All the plants were the same size. Only one of the frogbit is actually growing, one in the 10g. Why would I experience different growth rates in the same...

So I have a 55 gallon tank that's lightly planted (until the plants grow!) and I'm curious as to what fish would be good to add. The current stock is in my sig. I plan to get 10 more ghost shrimp today. I would like to get a bottom feeder and maybe a nice centerpiece. Any suggestions would be great!

Hi! I bought a Sunburst Platy about 2 weeks ago and since then she has gotten bigger and bigger. The only males that share a tank with her is a black molly and a dwarf gourami. Can anyone tell if she is pregnant or just fat? lol. Thanks! George

Hi my name is George and I am relatively new to the aquarium business. I received a 10g as gift from my wife and ever since the obsession has taken off. I currently have 2 10g and 1 55g tank. I am interested in all things fish and my son loves looking at them and feeding them (he is almost 2)...
