    Is my black neon tetra pregnant?

    Hi glad you found my forum, when I posted this I was basically a newb when it came to tetras, and as I learned that they are egg layers not livebearers so you need a male tetra too and have never had a tetras lay eggs as far as I've noticed so you really have nothing to worry about :) Here's...

    Thanks a lot! I have determined that I have a plakat (I believe) and I'm leaning towards a dragon scale because of it's scales (looks iridescent) but I am still on the fence about that :)

    Betta ID: what type, male/female, and is it a dragon scale?

    Hello everyone! Today I bought a betta from my LFS and man It's pretty! My main questions are: 1) what type of betta do I have 2) male or female and 3) is this a dragon scale? Reason for asking if he (I believe) is a dragon scale is when I picked him up he was with the dragon scales and had...

    Food and color

    I used to use tetra color food but I developed a oily film in the top of my tank because it's generally a cheaper food IMO, so for the while now I've been using "omega one super color" flake food and it's been really good so far with no oily film and my fish seen to really like it -Jacob...

    Stocking question

    I wouldn't recommend the 1 inch per gallon rule, as it can be inaccurate with the bioload of different fish. And without using common sense that rule can cause big problems. A really good website is aqadvisor.com It is pretty conservative so if you keep up with your water changes and have the...

    quiet(er) filter for a 30g?

    When I looked at it after I unplugged it all looked fine to me, but I really have/had to watch the water level because of my snail, as it is recommended to have the water line 1inch from the top for them so I ended up moving the mystery snail to my brothers tank because he always has 1" bc of...

    quiet(er) filter for a 30g?

    I have an aquaclear on my 10g, since replacing my old filter my aquarium the water has become more clear than ever. It is one strong and quiet filter IMO, reason being is one night my family decided to sleep in our 5th wheel bc we just brought it home. I forgot to add in some water to fill my...

    What is this plastic thing attached to the bottom of my tank?

    The green ones are for a tetra whisper 10i filter and the blue one is for a larger model. You basically make your own cartridges with them with a filter floss like bag that goes over the frame and activated carbon goes inside! Sent from my iPhone A1533 using Aquarium Advice

    Current USA Satellite LED+ dilemma!

    Yeah that makes sense, fit it to my schedule cause there's no point in it being on the whole day. And a longer siesta period is good for algae control too so why make the break short. And thanks for the timer name! I didn't know you could get them with multiple settings throughout the day, I'll...

    Current USA Satellite LED+ dilemma!

    Ok so just start with a longer break period. Could I make it shorter over time and the lights on longer too over time? What timer would you recommend to turn the lights on/off two times a day? Sent from my iPhone A1533 using Aquarium Advice
