Wow! It's been a long time since I posted here. My last tank bit the dust earlier in 2015 from some funky worms that just wouldn't quit, so I finally decided to get a new nano going last weekend. I figured I would share what I have done so far. The tank is a Coralife BioCube 14. I used...

So, I noticed some of these small white feathery looking things in my tank. There are about 5 or 6 that I can see. I have read about Aiptasia, and it looks like a possibility, but I am just not sure. Any help is appreciated. Here are a couple pics. Sent from my SM-N910V using Aquarium Advice...

Hey all, just switched from a Nuvo 16 to a Fluval 24 Gallon. Used new sand, my old rock, added some more rock too. I have a pair of clows, one cleaner shrimp, a conch, and two corals. Around one of the corals, there is a gray algea growing maybe? I have started to see some diatomes as well...

Hello everybody! Up for sale is my 56 gallon aquarium with aqueon 75 filter, fluval heater, glass canopy top, fluval led lighting system, air pump and matching stand. I originally bought this back in April of 2014, but we are moving and we can't take it with us. Everything is in great...

I have a newer 16 Gallon nano thank. Currently I have 2 clown fish in it. I read that the salinity should be at 1.025. Currently I am at 1.0225. What is the best way to raise my salinity safely for the fish or is keeping it at 1.0225 okay? Thanks! Sent from my HTC6525LVW using Aquarium...

Does anyone know if they make a cover for the back of the Nuvo 16? The evaporation on this tank happens very quickly and I'm looking for a way to maintain the water. If they don't sell one, has anyone done a DIY project to make one? I assume that DIY is the best way to go. I have a protein...

Hello All! I set up my Nuvo 16 2 weeks ago and at the time got 3 decent sized pieces of live rock, fully cured, from my LFS. Since the, I have added 2 clown fish... I would like to add another piece of live rock, but not sure if I have to wait or if I can just add it in? Thanks! Sent from...

Hello everyone! Last Sunday, I purchased a Nuvo 16 gallon. This is my first salt water tank. My question...Last night I purchased a nano skimmer and installed it. It's an AquaEuro Nano Protein Skimmer. The instructions did not show how to place it in the tank, so I used YouTube vids and did...

A few weeks ago I noticed my pearl gourami had a large white spot on his side. Then a little later on, noticed the top of his mouth looked kind of funny. It too was white and a little pink. I took a few pics and bought them to my fish store. They said it looked as if he cut himself up on...

Woke up this morning and found a funny spot on my Pearl Gourami. Hoping someone might know what it is...if anything. Overall, he is still acting fine. Lots of energy, still eating, etc. The spot is slightly raised and kind of off white. Really blends with his scales. I can tell if it's a...

Hey all! So earlier today, I got 3 nice redline sharks for my tank. Since I placed them in the tank, all of my Rosie Barbs have been hiding towards the top back left and one if then is hiding in the gravel behind a small grassy plant. Is this normal when adding new fish sometimes? I've...

Just got a new 56 gallon tank. Wondering if it would be beneficial to add a powerhead and where to place it. It's a 56 column tank. Stock will be... 3 Boesemani Rainbows 3 Rosie Barbs 1 Gourami 1 Bamboo Shrimp I have an aqua clear filter that does 300 gallons an hour. Thanks!

So, I am considering moving from my 36 gallon bow front to a 50 or 60 gallon. The main question I have... In the 36 gallon, I used white rocks. I can't stand them! So, I am wondering if there is a safe way to keep all the good media without using the rocks that I have in the 36 gallon...

Okay... So I set up my new tank on November 17 and I can't seem to get the tank to cycle. I have also lost a few fish along the way (I lost one Molly to livebearer disease and 3 cherry barbs to dropsy). I have been super super super cautious and on top of keeping the tank in good shape, so a...

I have a 36 gallon bow front with an emperor 280 filter. This morning I woke up to a fish stuck to the filter. He was perfectly fine about 15 minutes prior to my finding him. He was a blue fin danio. This used to happen in my old tank as well. How do you prevent this from happening? They just...

Okay, so I started my new 36 gallon tank on Sunday. It is equips with an Emperor 400 filter and heater. Decorations are set up, but I chose not to have live plants at this time (maybe I should?). Gravel is white and was thoroughly strained/cleaned before I put it in as were the fake plans and...

Hello All! I'm starting a new 36 gallon tank. It's all set up and ready for some fish to get the cycling underway. Just wondering what fish you all recommend for cycling. It's a freshwater 36 gallon bow from tank with an Emperor 400 filter. Looking to have a nice selection of active fish...

I was recently in my local aquatics store and upgraded my 10 gallon tank to a 29 gallon tank. AS directed, I took all the gravel from the 10 gallon tank and transferred it all to the 29 gallon along with the water. I did have to add more gravel to the larger tank, but that was fairly easy. I...

Back in December, I got a 10 gallon tank. The first fish I got was a Swordtail. Two weeks ago, I made the jump to a 29 gallon tank. The tank cycled perfectly and all water testing has been perfect. I have continued weekly water changes as well. Usually changing about 30% of the water. Over...

Just wanted to take a minute to say hello to everyone. I just joined the forum. For Christmas, my wife bought me a 10 gallon tank, and I loved it so much that I upgraded yesterday to a 29 gallon. The place I go, Aquatic Wildlife in Connecticut, is amazing. Very helpful staff and have yet to...
