Ok fish aquarium advise. So a youtuber recently challenged me with the help of the forums to identify his new fish that he is trying to keep secret. So I thought this would be a fun challenge to see if anyone on here can identify his fish. He doesn't give us much to go off of. Good luck! The...

I'm thinking of getting an RO/DI system and doing a discus tank. Everyone seems to recommend the Bulk Reef Supply system for the money. However I found one on ebay for $30 cheaper and it looks exactly the same. Do any of you know if the BRS System is just a branded model or exclusive to their...

I recently moved to the middle of nowhere. I have a 100 gallon planted tank that needs to be filled. I literally need around 100 small fish of various species. Can anyone recommend a site that has cheap fish and most importantly cheap shipping?

It will be a heavily planted tank, will I be fine with a 2217 or should I get something else?

So I'm setting up a new 100 gallon tank in my bedroom. I have two old aqueon 55/75 HOB filters. However they are kinda loud at night when I'm trying to sleep. From what Ive been reading on the internet a canister filter may be quieter. I'm looking for recommendations on the quietest canister...

I'm setting up a 100 gallon planted tank. I really like the price of this fixture but am wondering if 320 watts to high for my tank. It will be a dirted tank no co2 only excel. I just don't want to have so much light that algae goes crazy or I fry my plants. T5 Quad 60" Timer 6500K Aquarium...

So I really want to put dirt into my 55 but I'm very concerned that the possible ammonia spike will kill my fish. The questions I have is this. If dirt needs time to leach ammonia under water, why can't I just put it in a bucket of water for a month. I would change the water daily to help it...

So about 3 weeks ago I brought home a panda garra fish. Hes really awesome but has been scratching against the sand and driftwood. He does not do it frequently but today I noticed a congo scratch for the first time. Its been 3 weeks and there are no white spots on any of the fish even the garra...

I need to replace 2 48" t5 light bulbs that sit on top my planted tank. I figured here would be a good place to start and get some suggestions. I don't mind getting 2 different bulbs if that's best. Also keep in mind I have congo and cardinal tetras so the lights also need to be good at showing...

Attached is a picture of a type of algae that only grows on my sand. I stir up my sand every weer during my WC but by the next week almost my whole sand bed is covered with it again! I'm getting a little bit upset with this algae and am wondering if anyone here has had experience with this...

Well about a month ago I bought a male pearl gourami. Lately hes been harassing my rasboras and to help got him 2 female pearl gouramis. This did not turn out so well. He has been relentlessly chasing and nipping both females for the last day. This morning my females started to show signs of...

I'm looking into getting some congo tetras. The only thing is my ph is at 8. Everything Ive read says ph from 6 to 7.5 Do you think they would be able to adapt to a ph of 8 or hould I try almond leaves or something. My only concern with the almond leaves is that every time I do a water change...

Well the title says it all. I noticed that 2 or 3 out of my 11 cardinal tetras kinda have a white fuzzy apidose fin. If you click the link you can see a picture with a cardinal tetra that has it. I just find it weird how some have it and some don't? Has anyone else noticed this in their cardinal...

Hey guys I'm looking for stocking suggestions for my 55. Currently I have 1 pearl gourami 10 hengels rasbora and 10 cardinal tetras. My filtration is really good and I do a 40% water change every week. My water tests pristine and nitrate stays around 3. I'm looking for some bigger fish and have...

Hey guys planted some water wisteria in about 3 weeks ago. It has about 2 inches of new growth on the top but the rest of the plant looks gross. If I cut the wisteria down to about 1 inch above the sand (No leaves would be left) Will it grow new leaves or simply die?

I just planted my 55 Gallon. Currently has 3 angelfish in it but am getting rid of them due to them eating all my plants (No its not a lack of nutrition.) Any way pretend like you got a new 55 what would you stock it with? This is what Ive thought of so far but is open to change. 10 corydoras...
