    Neon Tetra Fin Rot

    I picked up 5 neons yesterday at the LFS because they had them on sale for .99 each. Now I know why I didn't notice until I got home that 3 of them had what looks like fin rot. When I got up this morning to check the tank, 2 are missing 90% of the tail and dorsal fin and were floaters. Is there...

    Cloudy water

    I've noticed that my water is starting to cloud up. I've determined it's not algae and believe it's because my filter floss is absolutely spent. I've washed it out several times(in tank water) but it's starting to fall apart. My filter is an in tank 3 stage setup in a 29g biocube. The first...

    Moving, what to do with fish/tank??

    I'm going to be moving in a few weeks. I just finished cycling my 29g biocube. I know I need to drain my tank but am curious about the fish and my filter. I use a filter tower in the back of the tank, should I drain some water into a bucket and throw the filter in so I don't take a risk of...

    Lighting question

    I have blue and white LEDS on my 29 gal biocube. How long can I run with the lights on. I have them on a timer now for 8 hrs. I am doing a fish in cycle and am about 2 weeks in. Everything looking good so far, just curious about the lights.

    Biocube 29

    Does anyone know how to setup a biocube 29 freshwater? The previous owner had a saltwater setup and removed the protein skimmer and filters. It has the pump and heater but no filter media. I was told that I could throw in the carbon packs, or in my case Chemipure, right into the 1st and 2nd...
