    Post your frog pictures here!

    There are lots of threads for different kinds of fish, but I haven't seen one for frogs yet, so I thought I'd make one :) I've only owned ADFs so far but I'm thinking of maybe getting an ACF soon :)

    Empty 15 gallon

    So I got this 15 gallon tank from a second hand store a month or so ago. I used old filter media in the filter and it's all cycled and ready. I wanted to get some cool looking fish for it. I was wondering, are there any small cichlids that would be ok in a tank that small? Or other neat looking...

    Just wondering what you breeders do with culls (if you do cull) I was going to feed mine to my Oscar but he died... Might get something else big to feed them to. Anyway, just out of curiosity... :)

    Planted 55gallon HELP!

    I have a 55 gallon planted that's really not doing that well... Lol I have three amazon swords, two bunches of something I forget the names of and a java fern. The substrate is just pool filter sand. I was going to get root tabs but the guy at the pet store suggested potassium supplement instead...

    Microworms

    I need some info on microworms and how to culture them. Ive heard they're easier than brine shrimp. Do you have to keep buying new microworms like bbs eggs or can you just keep the one culture you start? I'm a beginner to live foods so I really have no idea... Please help!

    Tank dividers

    Ok so I have a 45 gallon tank (4feet long) that I want to use to house bettas. I am going to be breeding them in September and I want to be able to put as many separate areas in this tank as I can. I know I need more space too, and I have it, I just want to put as many males in this one as...

    New to planted

    So I just got into planted tanks. I have a 55 gallon that is cycled and everything that I just changed to sand and real plants a week ago. Right now there are two female bettas in the tank. There's a picture in my bettas album. I was wondering, could anyone give me some general advice on plants...

    Angelfish breeding

    I have a 45 gallon tank (well its my 5 year old brothers actually) with two angels, three harlequin rasboras and five Cory cats. I was thinking, if I got a few more angels and let them grow up and then hopefully pair up, and then kept a pair and got rid of the rest of the angels and rasboras but...

    Betta bowls

    I normally think of bettas in bowls as a bad idea, but I was thinking... What of the bowl was a few gallons and had a heater? Im starting my lightly planted bowl over with a bigger 2 gallon bowl. My mom would like a betta, but I'm not sure it would be a good idea... Just wanted to see what other...

    Angel fish growth and/or fin rot?

    I got a pair of angels for my brother a few weeks ago and one of them now has some kind of growth on its fin... Or in place of its fin... And the other fins seem to be kinda torn up. I don't have a quarantine tank so he's still in the main tank. Is this fin rot? Whatever it is, what do I do to...

    Live rock in freshwater?

    I saw some setups that were freshwater and had what looks like live rock. They look awesome, but I thought you could only put it in saltwater? If you can use it in freshwater I'd love to do that in my cichlid tank... :)

    Sponge filter question

    I just put a sponge filter in my fry tank yesterday, and there are bubbles coming out of the top but it doesn't seem to be filtering anything... There's an airstone that goes down into a tube that fits into the sponge. I don't get how this is supposed to filter though... It just blows bubbles up...

    If i were to breed bettas...

    I would kind of like to breed my betta I've had for a year now... I've been researching this for a while, but I have a few questions. Does anyone know if it'd be ok to house the fry in my 10 gallon with platty fry? Or should I get a new tank? Also, if I can't feed bbs, which I don't think I...
