I have had this little guy in a group of three for about a year. Purchased from a lfs, not big chain. It has been doing great, grown from an inch to almost two inches, I check my fish everyday. This is what I noticed tonight looking over my fish. And when I look under its white belly I see...

You can call this nano if you like, I'm not sure what qualifies an aquarium to be "nano" but what I'm calling "nano" is 5 gallon. I just set this up after saving up for quite a while. Pics will come in the next post. I'm using floramax as substrate for planting low light plants. I filled it...

I've collected some brown, dried out oak leaves from a under a neighbors tree. Anything I need to do to them before adding them to my aquarium?

Ok I've narrowed it down to the finnex ray 2 or the planted tank build from buildmyled.com Finnex ray 2 http://www.aquavibrant.com/finnex-ray-ii-ultra-slim-led-ds-dual-7000k.html Planted tank build http://www.buildmyled.com/freshwater-planted-tank/ Looks like the buildmyled fixture will be...

So I had a betta set up in a 1.5 gallon glass jar/bowl. I used flora max for some substrate and a shoot of water wisteria from my other tank. I did a water change once a week. After two weeks, two water changes, the plant and substrate had some white fungus/bacteria looking stuff on them. So...

I am getting into planted aquariums. I am slowly transforming my current community tank into a planted aquarium with a unique aqua scape. Eventually I plan converting gravel to dirt and having a full carpet of something whether it will be baby tears or dwarf hair grass. I need to fact check...

I bought this as a dry bulb. I really like it and want to care for it properly as I'm a beginner at aquatic plants

Two of my tetras seem to have some sort of wound but I have no idea what it is. One of them got this injury looking malady on its side a few weeks ago and then one week ago another got a similar looking injury on the bottom mouth. My stock is 20 gal high: 5 balloon red eyed tetras 3...

Is this going to stress the females out. The males are small and the females are bigger.

Would like to get some dark deep brown colored substrate. It will be replacing gravel in a stocked and planted aquarium. I've done a few searches but wanted to see what product has worked best for others.

This is on one side of one of my tetras. Any ideas? I dosed the tank with seachem prime a few days ago during a water change. 5 REB tetras 4 corys 1 guppy 1 BN pleco 1 af. Clawed frog about the size of my thumb (soon to be retanked) The frog may be the culprit but I've never seen it be quick...

Can't make my mind up. Has anyone had both? Which is a better community fish?

I want to change my substrate in my 29g 30L x18hx12w from a light brown gravel to a dirt or sand substrate that is much darker. Looking for some advice as to how to do this or if it would be a bad idea. 1 bristlenose pleco (plenty of driftwood) 3 peppered corys 1 emerald Cory 5 red eyed balloon...

So I live in Texas which is pretty much made of limestone shelf. So I had the bright idea to find my own rocks to put in my tank, and I did. Upon further research I found out these rocks actually aren't good for the water in your aquarium. Is this reason my water is reading incredibly high? My...

Recently, at my lps, on a whim my wife wanted a african dwarf frog. So when the attendant scoped it out, I saw one that was a little bigger and of course, "oh, can you get that one!" So we brought it home and it was living happily in its new home and then it started growing. Did a bit of...
