I'm in the Daytona Beach area. My son desperately wants a purple one. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

We have sand. I am assuming sand would be fine...? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

And for tank size we have a 6 gallon and a 20 high. It would eventually be the showcase fish in the 20. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

We were looking at the double veil tail. I love the rose petal that our pet co has, but I'm not spending $20 on a fish I've never had before. Either way, my son is insisting it has to be purple. Is it better to order a specific fish or wait until the perfect one comes along? Sent from my...

Thanks. I've had tanks before so I know the usual advice applies. I just don't know if betta are "special" or just so easy that I'm completely over thinking them. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I'm looking at getting a betta and I would love to get all the tips I can before I decide to do it. I've tried having a betta once before and it died overnight. That was years ago and with little knowledge about fish. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

As long as shrimp and snails reproduce or are cheap, I'm not all that worried about them being eaten. It's just nature and I can't police the tank 24/7. I want to be able to create something colorful, natural and well populated. I think our last batch (6 Odessa barbs, 2 mollies and 1 yoyo loach)...

We're going to start looking at restocking the tank. It's mainly my son's tank, but he doesn't get final say on it since I take care of it. I would like to do something with a betta as a centerpiece. I don't think I have the time or knowledge to do a sorority though I would love to. I won't put...

Thanks for the replies. I'm going to test the water a little later. I know he wasn't as consistent as I am with water changes. I feel bad I'll have to break the news to my son when he gets back from his father's. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Hi,everyone. Sorry I've been gone for a while. The sight, smell and thought of fish made me violently ill my entire pregnancy. Baby Alec is growing and is now 7 months old! My fabulous so took "care" of the tank the entire time. We only lost one Molly and one barb so I was happy. Yesterday I...

Well, I haven't been on in a while because I've been dealing with an issue I thought would be cleared up months ago. Right now, I'm 20 weeks pregnant and since I was about 6-7 weeks, the sight, thought, smell, any idea of caring for our tank makes me vomit. My bf is trying to do his best but it...

Here are se pictures I just took. The tank was started in June after being cycled. I run the lights from 10 am to 7 pm. Not sure what bulbs I have. I recently changed them but I forget to what. About a week after I added the moss ball and that is when the brown algae started.

So quick question- how can I get rid if the little bit of brown algae? It's not much but the glass isn't as clean as it was.

Thanks guys. I got them out. My loach is now the fattest I've ever seen. I put some plants with little pond snails in there and haven't seen them. I've had shells just appear out of the sand and then disappear. Maybe this explains why.

I've been reading about how nerite snails clean the glass and for some reason brown algae all of a sudden came into my tank. It cleared away on its own but I figured three snails would keep it away. My yoyo loach has decided to eat one. I've never seen it like this before. Will this get him...

I have about 5 of them. If you only got it for $1 good deal. Mine were almost $5 for each one.

I have a pair of dalmation Molly/guppies. I thi k they have a lot of personality and are quite pretty. You might be able to see them in my album.

Here is the almost finished tank! I can't believe how much reading on this forum has taught me! I'm getting moss to cover the boxy thing tomorrow and then over the weekend it's dwarf puffer time! Oh, can anyone tell me what the bigger leaf plant is? I'm hoping it will do fine in there. Can...

So I recently got an Eclipse 6 for free. The filter didn't work so I bought a Tetra 2-10 in the tank filter. The only problem I am having is the filter is pouring so much in the tank it's making a hole in the sand. Any ideas to lower the power on it?

I just threw it away after fiddling with it for an hour. I went to Walmart last night and got a tetra whisper 2-10. At least it's internal and I can keep the lid. The light is brighter in this tank so I might move my sword so it will be happier.

I've only been here for about a year and a half. I have found 3 and the petsmart, but not "the" store yet. Have you had any luck? Let me know what you're looking for, maybe I can help.

I have the whole system but the filter doesn't work. I don't want to throw the filters out so if you want them let me know, I only ask you pay shipping or pick up in Daytona Beach.

Thanks! I will be sure to do that! Only bad thing I've found so far is the filter is leaking and I can't find any info on how to take it apart or how to fix it, but it was free so I can't be too disappointed.

I am in the process of cleaning all of it as it hasn't been used in almost a year. It came with three rocks but they have green on them. How can I safely clean them to use them? I'm hoping it will be ready in a few weeks, maybe sooner if I grab some stuff from my 20 high. So excited!!!

If still available, what would the price of 12 cherries any color and a java moss? Shipping to 32119.
