    29g species tank build!

    There are 4 males and 6 females. Only 2 males will color up at a time. Something to do with dominance. There aren't any proven breeding pairs yet but the females are juveniles right now. Not many people keep this fish, so I'm still working on the profile and will post it soon. this is...

    29g species tank build!

    So my new crew has arrived! Here is a video of me feeding them a pond snail. Awesome little fish. https://youtu.be/VbvKEXxG0vg this is the life.

    Wanted: Seeded Media

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I am not certain the beneficial bacteria will survive a 2-5 day shipping period. I could be wrong. But I thought it died off fairly quickly without water. If you're getting it from someone nearby though it will work for sure. Sent from my D6708 using Aquarium...

    I did, thank you. Very excited. does Buce melt a lot when acclimating? Just want to know what to expect. I read that some Buce can melt almost all the way back to the rhizome before new growth Sent from my D6708 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Wanted: Mts

    I have what you need, but most will be small. I could root out the big ones if I can find them. The assassin snails keep them in check but can't eliminate them before they make babies:) Any plants to trade? Or just pay for shipping and I'll send you some. Sent from my D6708 using Aquarium...

    For Sale or trade: Broadleaf Pogostemon

    I am interested, but am not sure if it will grow in a 29g. I am only running a fugeray planted plus, which is medium light in my tank. Does this need highlight? I have assassin snails for trade if you're interested. Sent from my D6708 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    When is Purigen done?

    The smell is normal. And it doesn't make your tank smell, it's just a product of the absorbed material. I have 4 tanks, each with copious amounts of purigen. After a few months when it's brown, I recharge it using the bleach:water mixture on the instructions. And voila! It works like new...

    29g species tank build!

    Holy Moss tank, Batman!.:) That's cool. I will only have the sub in there, along with some mini pelia that was included. That red moss would look good against my white sand though. Sent from my D6708 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    29g species tank build!

    Ok cool. Glad to hear the Susswasertang will be fine. Does it make cleaning the tank difficult? I don't usually vacuum my sand but in the other tank I have cory and they stir up the debris enough that it gets pulled into the filter. This tank won't have any cory. The Buces need medium light...

    29g species tank build!

    New plants! Okay so I got a few plants and accessories in the mail this week! In the corner I covered the output of the powerhead with a media bag filled with sponge to reduce the flow but allow aeration. I also switched the large sponge from the AC70 to the powerhead. It's working great so...

    29g species tank build!

    I'm requesting recent photos of them from the breeder. Other than that, there are SOME pictures online but not many. I think there may be one YouTube video out there of PPS but it's low quality. Sent from my D6708 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    29g species tank build!

    So the time has come to add another tank to my living room (up to 4 now and my wife is still crazy about me, so things are going well). I got a smoking deal on a 29g setup. $150 for a Marineland stand and 29g tank, finnex fugeray planted plus, glass lid, aquaclear 70, 1L seachem matrix, heater...

    Adding a Betta to my 55gallon.

    So ended up going with an electric crayfish/lobster... That said, I've since acquired a 29 gallon tank that needs a few residents. Starting a new thread for that. Thanks folks! Sent from my SGP561 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Bigger stand. Smaller tank. Safe?

    Yes it's particle board. The sides of the stand weren't actually connected, they were just flush. So the front and back had a slight bow to them when I sat on it (to see if it would wobble under my weight). I added corner braces inside to connect them and it's sturdier. I think I will go...

    Bigger stand. Smaller tank. Safe?

    So I have another build coming. A 29gallon species tank, but I'm concerned about the stand size. The stand is made for a Marineland 47 gallon column tank. Quite a bit more weight than what I'm using it for, however I've been reading that all edges of the tank should be lined up with the edges...

    Adding a Betta to my 55gallon.

    He is transferred and doing well! No aggressiveness yet so that's a good sign. The other fish are even swimming near him without problems. Thanks folks! Now....electric colored lobster or scarlet badis for the newly freed 10gallon? Sent from my SGP561 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Setting up a new Cory tank 90g

    Thanks! I'm enjoying it as well. Just makes me want another tank tho! :) I like Amano shrimp except that they won't reproduce...which makes me hesitant. Still though I was thinking a few bamboo shrimp and Amano shrimp would be good additions. I think for now I'll stick with adding from the...
