Hello, I have a 10 gallon tank, and have been looking into plants for it. These are what's stood out to me so far: Water sprite, and java moss. I thought of floating the water sprite, and using it to replace 2 fake plants I have floating once it gets big enough. I also was considering making a...

Hello again. I have noticed this stuff growing on and around my filter recently (See attached pictures). I can't tell what it is, but have a sneaking suspicion that it's mold or fungus (REALLY hoping not). Can someone help me identify and get rid of it? Thanks!

Okay, I'm brand new at live plants, and though I might try water sprite, duckweed, or water lettuce. How do I care for these? How fast do they grow? How big do they get? Etc, etc. thanks!

Hi, I have a ten gallon 3-or-so month old tank, and have been looking into live plants for a while now. Unfortunately, I have already set it up with gravel and fake plants, and don't really want to switch now. But I've heard people reference floating plants, and was wondering if I could get any...

What is the difference between a normal tank and a nano tank? Just curious, if I ever expanded I was considering looking into nanos.

I got three MTS from PetCo today, and put them in a one gallon quarantine with a sponge filter. I'm going out of town tomorrow for a day or two, and then i want to monitor how much they breed. First off, how long are they pregnant? I've heard they are livebearers. Also, how much do they eat? I...

Hello again, My neon tetra has recently been hanging around behind the heater and filter. I find it sometimes with its tail pointing up, and for a few moments of swimming around after I scare it out, it's colors are dimmed. I can easily get it out (just show my face to it and it swims out...

Okay, I've been very interested in getting a snail or two for my tank. But I have a few questions: how much do they contribute to the bioload? And also, which kinds lay eggs without a mate? I'm sure there's more questions I have that don't come to mind right now, but those two are my main ones...

One of my guppies has been lying for extended times, day or night, on the plants, gravel, etc. when she does swim around, it's usually in circles and always slow, lethargically, and weak. Also, her whole body wobbles from side to side when she swims. Help! What could have happened; I think she...

I did a PWC this morning, and found these little dark balls, covered in fuzz, under the gravel. I found two, though there are probably many more. Help?

Can a female betta or two live with guppies, zebra danios, and neon tetras? Just a question, I've become very interested in bettas recently, and thought it might be fun to get one in the future. Thanks!

Hello, it's me again... With another question. My zebras have been off-and-on chasing each other around my 10-gallon this morning. I can't tell if they're breeding, or just very active. I shot a video (sorry for the bad footage, I'm still working on my fish photography (; ), so can someone give...

Here are some photos. Should I put her in the breeder trap yet? Her stomach looks squared, but she isn't very big yet... Thanks in advance for your help. I'm new to fish keeping and breeding so this is a great help!

Tonight I noticed that my pregnant guppy had slimmed up quite a bit. She had a very large stomach beforehand, but had not squared off at all yet. I got her from the pet store pregnant, and she's been with me for a little over a month. I don't see any fry. She acts normal, but her stomach has...

:fish2:Hey, I am new to fish keeping, and have started breeding both guppies and zebra danios. I previously had a 1 gallon bowl and kept two betas, at different times, in there. Now I have upgraded to a 10 gallon (still small, I know) tank, and have 5 female guppies, 1 male guppy, 4 zebra...
