I started my planted tank a little over one year ago. I had a small Anubis and Amazon sword in pool filter sand. I upgraded to flora max and added 40+ stems of various low/med light plants to see how it would go. Here is right after substrate change Then after added the additional plants...

I have a 29 gal planted tank and I think I should take the plunge and go with co2. I'm not crafty enough T to do a diy I'd rather just get it all on one box of I can. I don't want to break the bank but don't want crap. Can you point me in the right direction? Sent from an undisclosed location...

So I'm about a month into my planted tank and I have had a super busy month and admitting I had not done a water change at all. So last Friday I wanted to check the ammonia, nitrites and nitrates in my tank. I have never had any ammonia or nitrites since I've had my tank (before it being...

So here is a little update :) First pic is 2 days after planting and adding fish Second is just over 2 weeks after planting. The bacoba is growing like crazy and started growing roots all over and grew at least 5" in those two weeks so I did trim them and replanted in other areas and I...

They were packaged in a usps priority mail box and in that was a grocery store plastic bag, then they were split into 2 separate plastic bags sealed with tape. Not the most fantastic and I was glad I was home when they came so the mailman didn't leave them outside in the cold too long. I did...

Thanks. Me too! I also have 4 pieces of cholla that are hiding under the big log until they sink. Sent from an undisclosed location...

I just ordered a few sticks of cholla wood for my planted tank and wondered if there is anything I should do to prep it when it comes? I liked the way it looked online and had to get some. I ordered it from Amazon Sent from an undisclosed location...

Hey thanks for the tip! I'll pull it out a bit and put the root tabs under the crypt. :)

Thank you. I was excited to find all of them at a good price and from what I could tell they seemed to be a good fit. Here's hoping that it's not too good to be true. Reviews seem to be pretty positive so I hope that continues.

I am considering going with this plant stock from Amazon: Robot Check It contains: 1 Anubias (Anubias lanceolata), mature plant 8-10 inches - great plant for creating a focal point in your fish tank 1 Red Amazon Sword - rare type (, mature plant 5-7 inches - another great focal point Amazon...

So I ended up going with the FloraMax despite my frugal ways. Right now I just have some anubias and something else I got from the lfs that I almost killed. So I'm hoping that the substrate change and closer attention will help it revive and recover.

Thanks everyone, I took the easy route yet more expensive and got some FloraMax today.

I have a 29 gallon lightly planted tank with a few various anubias and a ribbon plant (not sure now if that was the best idea) I just bought a new light The National Geographic 24"€ Deluxe Programmable LED Aquarium Light. Since I got the light I have had an algae problem with the brown and...

Just wondering if you all think a black skirt Tetra and a white skirt tetras will shoal together? Right now I have 3 White Skirts and I would like to add more (I lost 1 recently) but would like to add some color to my tank since I have pool filter sand and the white skirts tend to blend in...

Thanks, There are only 3 adult guppies that we plan to keep and the rest of the fry (13 now) are getting new homes. :)

Hi all, I'm looking for some tank mates for a 10 gal with some guppies. We just had a bunch of fry and at this point I can't tell if they are male or female and have no other place to put any more fry, so I'm looking for suggestions for maybe a nice tank mate that would like to eat fry as...
