What would be the better light for a low tech 24" cube tank I'm starting? AI Prime 13HD Freshwater, Twinstar 600E, Finnex HLC, or Chihiros All A601?

May I please get some stocking opinions? This is my first time keeping Geophagus. I have a 110 gallon tank. 60.5" long, 16.5" wide, and 25.5" tall. I am considering either Abalios or Red Head Tapajos. I am thinking 6. Does this sound like a good number? I also have access to Winemilleri and...

Looking for snails. Also, shrimp. Doesn't have to be anything fancy. Just some decent, low priced shrimps... culls, RCS, whatever you got, let me know.

I'm finally back! After having to move and sell everything a couple years ago, which was so hard, I finally got a 20g long for a planted tank project. Anyone know if they make lids for these? It is taller in back than in the front. Can't wait to get started. https://flic.kr/p/RevoSv

I am unable to keep up with this many tanks anymore due to a health issue. I need to rehome some fish and cichlids: 10 Congo Tetras (9M/1F) - I could slap who shipped that. Still gorgeous. 6 Steatocranus Casuarius - Sex? Young. Males prob larger ones, but they are not keeping still right...

My first shellie fry. Had my Occellatus Gold for about a year now. Got them when they were little guys. Just seen fry yesterday. I noticed she was guarding a shell pretty intense. No pics yet. They are soooo tiny! Sucks I got a some green spot on my glass right in front of the shell and...

Group of Tanganyikan Cichlids - *Callochromis Stappersii Raspberry Head 1 Male - One Eyed 2 Females - Both have produced fry Spawn like bunnies 4 Juveniles (one much younger than the other 3) Very pretty cichlid and fun to keep. I also have: *1 Julidochromis Marlieri female Would...

I have a ton of it. Finally gave my tank a good trim. I honestly don't know how many stems I have because there is so much so I will sell them until they run out. I'm guessing I have about 60-70 stems. They will vary is size from small to large. There are snails in my tanks. 12 for $16...

Looking for Bolbitis heudelotii and/or bolbitis heteroclita. Seems to be a lot of confusion out there on this fern plant and its varieties. However, I want some for my tank as it fits my theme. I see some that grow small (dwarf size) on rocks and driftwood and some that are growing pretty...

2 Hygrophila Corymbosa - 1 is Over 12" and 1 is about 6" 7 Vallisneria Contortionist 5 Dwarf Sagittarias 1 Clump of Java Moss 1 Myriophyllum heterophyllum? (It doesn't like me. Maybe it will like you.) Plants may contain snails and/or snail eggs. I'll try to pick them off if you want...

I went to feed and my female Juli came out and had this white string attached to her with a sac of what looks like 3 balls on it and then more white string. None of my fish have ever been sick. There are no other markings on her at all. I got her to come back out later and she was missing the...

Sorry if asked 1000 times. I got a new 150g. It has dual overflows with 2 pre-drilled holes. It also has 3 holes drilled on bottom outside of overflow boxes (1 on the left, 1 in the middle, and 1 on the right). Told they drilled it to be a closed loop system they were going to set-up. The...

Gobiocichla ethelwynnae Pelvicachromis taeniatus Nigerian red Nanochromis transvestitus (in back, striped, above the rock)

Wanted to throw out my situation and see what everyone comes up with... maybe something I haven't thought about. I'm picking up what a person told me was a 300 gallon tank. However, I took the measurements they gave me and looks up at a 220 gallon tank. Either way, it's going to be big. I...

The fall breeding is definitely in the air. So many with holding females. Just had my batch of Xenotilapia Ochrogenys Ndole Bay fry a week ago. Raising Callochromis Stappersii fry - had 2 different females hold 3 times now, but must have ate them - bad moms. Just moved my Enantiopus...

Guess what happened in my tank tonight! I'm soooo excited!!! My Xenotilapia Ochrogenys Ndole Bay spawned!!!! :dance:

Need some advice on the best thing to do for now and for the long run. My Xenotilapia Ochrogenys Ndole Bay wants a female badly and courts her to the point of even chasing her when she snubs him. He pretty much is not letting anyone else even near the sand in the entire tank expect himself and...

My female is holding for sure. I asked about whether she was holding once before and I now know she was based on her behavior in the past and how she is acting now. I can actually see the fry in her mouth now. I can't tell how formed they are yet, I can just see some dark or black in there...

I noticed this on a plant the other day. Thought it looked like a living creature. All white. Could see a black eye spot. Just the head was hanging onto a leaf. It never moved. I took some photos and upon blowing them up, zooming in, it is definitely an eyeball and mouth! Problem is, I...

So many things going on in my tanks, you'd think it was Halloween already or something. 2 fish have disappeared. Completely. No trace. Not a clue... One goby that usually sits on rock and jumps at anything that crosses his path, hides under a rock and won't eat, but when I fed bloodworms...

So, what behavior occurs when a cichlid is holding? I'm suspicious of one, but I have searched this forum and the net and found nothing on holding behavior. I know they hold eggs, fry in their mouths and spit them out and I can make them spit them out by squeezing over a bucket, but nothing...

Hi Everyone! So,I picked up a 75 gallon from Craigslist for $35. Woot woot! Now, I've been on another thread decided what to do with it and have decided to go Tanganyikan! Here is my tank - 75 Gallon. 48 L x 18W x 22H. So far, I have nothing. Plans. I did order a filter on Amazon. I...

I just got a 75 gallon. :dance: Now, what to do with it. I contemplated going saltwater, but I am afraid it will end up being too much work and way too expensive. If anyone has info to the contrary, I would be glad to hear it. Maybe there are different variations of saltwater I do not know...

Hey guys and gals. Did some major cleaning and rearranging. Have a new light coming in. Slowly adding some plants. Would like thoughts on how it looks. Any input on what I could do to improve it. Have a couple Peacock Cichlids, Swordtails, and Gobies right now. Almost everyone is a baby...
