I have two medium sized angels in a community tank that just put down a large selection of eggs on a wire hanging in the back of the tank. I'm not realy looking to breed anything, but I'm worried about how aggressive they've become to protect it. They are in the tank with: gouramis, clown...

So my QT tank has developed this white goop. Is this a fungas? Algae? I've never seen anything white like it. It grows pretty quickly. Any ideas? I'm glad I'm not seeing it in my main tank! *knock on wood* Picture attatched. EDIT: sorry about the duplication, there isn't much indication...

Currently the angels are covered in what appears to be a white haze. Definitely looks fungas oriented? I'll see if I can get good pictures, but it's hard without the perfect lighting since it just looks like a white haze covering them. My questions: I just finished with my 2 yoyo loaches in a...

As the title says I'm looking for some plant suggestions my fish will not eat. They seem to destroy anacharis and horn wart. They've been happily munching on my slowly dieing amazon sword. The anubias and java fern they seem to leave alone, not that they haven't tried to eat it. Although...

Here in the desert my tap water can get as hot as 86F+ right out of the tap! Currently my tank is right next to a sink and I'd rather not make buckets of water just so I can try and cool them down to room temperature, although I will do that if no other choice is available. Anyone ever used...

Is this red hair? I know that java fern is known to have some strange "spores" that grow off the bottom of the leaves. I've never seen red hair algae before, but it looks more like that?

Entire tank top covered except for a small place along the back where the tubes come into the tank. Poor pearl gourami, may he rest in peace. =( Nothing better than coming home from vacation to see one of your fish sitting on the glass on the top of your tank... I need to build a custom lid...

Why do clown loaches do this? Does anyone know? I watched my clown loach specifically flip himself over and lay on his side several times today. Is there some reason someone has figured out for this behavior?

I've been using the metal retainer that comes with most bunched plants (anacharis in this case) and I'm having problems keeping them together and anchored down. I can't tell exactly what is happening but the anacharis seems to escape somehow from the metal weight and float to the surface. This...

So I was a little nervous about ordering fish online but noone had angels that I realy wanted locally so I decided to give it a shot. www.angelsplus.com has a pretty good selection of several varieties. The thing that drew me to them the most was: I've never seen a fish place with that kind...

I just ordered 6 new angels for my tank. 3 Dark zebra lace and 3 koi from angelsplus.com. I'll give you a guys a review of the fish and angels plus after I receive them on weds! I just couldn't find any angels I liked locally.

So I'm trying to make sure my plecos get a little extra something to eat and I don't seem them out during the day. So I'm guessing I should try feeding them at night, but when I drop some alge wafers in most of the tank goes for them. Should I try feeding the entire tank at night so I can keep...

The hornwort was a bit messy for my taste, so I switched to anacharis for the center My clown loach's new home A shy new powder blue gourami peekaboo, the new gouramis are a bit shy New dwarf gouramis

I know there's more Arizona people out there, sign up! Does anyone know of good local auctions or clubs? There's one group I've seen around here (haven't attending meetings yet) that meets up at Peter Piper Pizza near metro center. They have a website but it escapes me for now.

It's not a good picture, but is this a skirt tetra?

My hornwort has grown over an inch in less than a week? Does this stuff normally grow this fast?!?

I'm looking for some advice on my 110g TALL tank. Dimensions 29"H X 48"W X 18"D semi planted community tank. (angels, gouramis, tetras, plecos, loaches) I have two fluval 404 filters with their jets at the top left and right of the tank with both pointing towards the center front glass. For...

My glass cover is constantly fogging up and collection moisture. The moisture wlil dry and leave hard water deposits behind. This seems to significantly reduce the power output of my lights. Do people usually just run without a glass cover? I've never had a fish jump out of the tank, but...

Quick disclaimer, I do freshwater only at the moment, so I can't comment on the salt water selections at these places. So here's my current list and quick reviews: Ocean Floor 2347 W Thomas Rd They most likely have the largest selection of aquatic merchandise around. I bought most of my 110g...

So I was looking for a good sponge to clean aquariums with the other day and I noticed that ALL of the household sponges specifically say "not for aquarium use" on them. Is that because of the antibacterial natures of them? Do I have to buy a special expensive aquarium sponge or something?

My order came today in great shape from azgardens.com. Some newbie things I learned and pictures of the setup. I ordered: 3 Java Moss $2.98 $8.94 3 Hornwort $0.98 $2.94...

Greetings AA readers, I hate that one of my first posts is asking for help on sick fish, but I've spent countless hours reading the archives and wanted to make sure I was heading down the right path. Since all my parameters are normal the only other guess I had was a parasite (based on what...

Greetings, I'm new to the site and have spent countless hours trolling before I decided to post. The search function is a wonderful thing. =) I have some populations I'm considering and I wanted to elicit some comments. I've already read all the compatibility charts, but what I'm looking for...

Most people that browse forums regularly hardly look at the front page. It's not a big deal now because I know where it is, but it took me at least 15 minutes to figure out up to update my profile. You should include a profile link in the header template for phpBB in with the other links at...
