This is my first betta fish I’ve ever had. I’ve had two 55g tanks, one salt and one fresh, a 20g fresh, and a 10g fresh, but the fresh were tropical and semi aggressive tanks. ANYWAYS, I’ve had my betta in a half gallon for about a month and a half (I know, not big enough) so I decided to get...

Last Friday, I introduced an ocellaris and a black ocellaris to my 55 gallon FOWLR tank. Over the past week the black ocellaris has been very in active. Every since the the day I put him in my tank he has been breathing fast. Observing him over the past few days I've noticed some white stuff...

2 days ago, (on Friday) I bought 2 clown fish. A regular one and a black ocellaris. In the tank at the lfs he ( the black ocellaris) was swimming all around the tank. Once I got home I floated their bags for 20 minutes and dripped water (2-4 drops per second) into a bucket they they were in...

Yesterday my tank was crystal clear. This morning it has a slight fog to it. I don't think I've been over feeding cuz my scissortaildartfish and zebra barred dartfish both eat a lot! Just tested my params and this is what I have Ammo: about half way in between 0 and .25ppm Nitrites: 0 ppm...

Instead of having 2 ocellaris clownfish would it be possible to have 1 regular ocellaris and 1 black an white ocellaris?

O I finished my cycle yesterday, Ammo:0 trites:0 trates:20-40... Did a pwc today and tested again and the trates lowered to 10. I went to my LFS and got a scissor tail dart fish.. I properly acclimated him by floating the bag for 20 minutes then put him in a bucket with a syphon at 30 minutes...

Can someone tell me how to properly acclimate fish or paste a link on here on proper acclimation? Thanks!

Now that my tank is up and running, and my fishless cycle is in progress, I've been putting together my stock list. On live aquaria.com it says most of these fish are peaceful. I can remove the semi agg. Ones if needed or not compatible and a few other if there's too many fish there. Suggestions...

I have done a freshwater tank before. In fact it was the same tank I'm talking about right now.. The only difference is that it is now a saltwater tank with 3 8lb pieces of live rock in it! I was wandering if the saltwater cycle in any different?! 55 gallon tank, live sand as well.

The title says it all! I want to switch from fresh water to saltwater in my 55 gallon tank! I talked to a guy at my local, privately owned, fish store today and he said a sump isn't necessary unless I'm planning on having a big stock! I do plan on getting a skimmer though! He did tell me to...

I need to treat my tank with furan 2 and it says to remove the active carbon or filter cartridge.. I have a marineland 360 canister filter so do I replace my filterpads or just my activated carbon?

So I just put my new tiger Oscar in my 55 gallon tank today! Come to find out an hour later, my tank has columnaris, white cloudy stuff forming on fin. I've ordered furan-2 off amazon but it is supposed to arrive on the 17th, next week. I had one packet of furan2 left over from my 20 gallon and...

I was just wandering if someone had some fish suggestions for me! My current stock: 1 albino bristlenose pleco 1 bristlenose pleco 1 red tail shark 5 tiger barbs 2 Bolivian ram cichlids 1 gold gourami Also, I put my rams in about 2 days ago, the shark seems to be chasing them quite a bit...

So the title says it all. I bought a BNP from a LFS a while back. I posted in this forum to see what I should do and I was recommended Furan 2. I've treated it once and it seemed to go away for about a month. I know this because I had a gold gourami in it for about that time. Well I recently...

I posted them in my photo album because I exceeded my quota!

So, I have a 20 gallon tank, fully cycled! What are a few good cichlids to put in there??

1 albino bristle nose pleco 1 bristle nose pleco 5 tiger barbs 1 redtail shark 2 pearl gourami My tank is 55 gallons! The redtail is already in the tank! What is another schooling fish that is good??

I bought a redtail shark yesterday and put him in my tank. All my levels are fine, <.25ppm ammo 0 nitrites and <5ppm nitrates ph-7.4-7.8.. I watched him all yesterday and he hid quit a bit. He is a grayish color and his tail is pink to almost transparent! I went to sleep last night thinking he...

I just recently bought a canister filter by Marineland and got it all set up and hooked up! It's running great and the water is crystal Clear, however, I was trying to go to sleep so I decided to watch the included DVD! I appear to have made a rookie mistake and I didn't rinse the activated...

Hey guys! I haven't posted in a while and I had a question! So if my 55 is already established, would I have to cycle it again when I get a canister filter on it?? I just recently had a gold gourami and a rainbow shark get sucked to the water intake on my H.O.B. filter and they both died! I've...

I bought a BNP from the privately owned fish store here where I live! I bought it with "something" on it's right fin thinking it was just a color that he had! He was in my tanks or about 2 weeks with a peacock eel! Both fish seemed happy and they both were active (the eel at night obviously) and...

Ok so I can't post anymore pics on here because they exceed my quota?! What is this? How do I post more pics????

Ok so I bought my BNP about 2 days ago and he had this white/yellow stuff on his right fin. I'm not sure what it is but I would like for someone to identify it if I need to treat it! He has gotten pale spots among the top of his head. The pictures probably aren't very good but ill try to get...

I haven't seen my peacock eel today or yesterday. I put some frozen blood worms in there last night. Usually (like at the pet store) don't they have their heads poking out of the substrate? I haven't seen it do that either! Please help!
