So I was in my lfs looking for a new fish, something unique looking when I came across the African butterfly fish. In the week I've had it, it has become my favorite fish by far. I have it in a community tank but I enjoy it so much I'm considering setting up either a species specific tank, or...

Ph is 7.3. Gh 3. Kh is 7. Those are similar to the lfs that I purchased them from I believe the last time I checked. And yes they are all from the same place. I only have a petco and one local fish store near me. Sent from my SM-N920P using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Thank you for the tips but it seems as though the albino krib would be difficult to get around here. I'd be willing to ship but unfortunately it is -6 Fahrenheit today. I'd looked at the bolivian rams but it seems as though they do not have nearly the color as the German blue rams. I'd kicked...

I have a 29 gallon planted that I have been running for a while now. It's got a bristlenose, 5 emperor tetra and a baby angelfish at the moment. I have been attempting to get a nice showy cichlid for the bottom of the tank but cannot seem to keep German blue rams alive. I've just lost my 3rd...

No I have not added anything since a sponge filter about a month and a half ago. The bloodworms are the frozen hikari blood worms. I have 4 other agassizii eating them without an issue for almost a year so unsure if that is the case. The male died in the night in the quarantine tank. so far...

I thought I saw my apistogramma agassizi had ich. However, the spots look different than the other times I've dealt with ich and he seems to have several other symptoms. Fat lips and mouth open all the time. Breathing heavy, fins torn but he's the bully of the tank so I know it's not from the...

So I came home from work today and have noticed tiny white spots around most of my fishes fins. After researching it seems it's what I've been fearing since getting into tanks is here. Luckily I have some aquarium salt laying around just in case this happened. I added a tablespoon to a 5...

Ok perfect. I'll relocate the loaches instead then. Thank you for the help everyone! Sent from my SM-N920P using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Fairly sure as the male has a deep red on his fins. I've attached the best pictures of the male and what I think (hope) are the females. Sent from my SM-N920P using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Sorry I thought I'd put apistogramma at the front. 4 of those guys Sent from my SM-N920P using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I finally got the agassizi harem I've been waiting for my lfs to get and have got them all in my 55 gallon. Now that I've got them in there though I'm having the debate on whether or not I should put them in my 29 gallon. I'd like them to breed, if for nothing else than to see the behavior or...

I've got two aqua clear 70s running and do once weekly water changes now in the 52. Another aquaclear 70 in the 29. If and when I get the rest of the plecos may up it to two water changes a week. Sent from my SM-G860P using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I recently took on a few rescue fish as a friends tank cracked and he needed a place to keep the fish so they wouldn't die. I currently have 3 tanks set up and was able to appropriately accommodate all of his fish. My question is that when we went to put his albino longfin bristlenose pleco...

I recently got a great deal on a 52 gallon flatback hex. Dimensions are 48"Lx 16"W and 18"H, maybe 16" once all the substrate is said and done with. I've got a Fluval LED Planted light in my 29 gallon medium planted and it works fantastic. Unfortunately, the 48" model is a bit out of my price...

update the angelfish is now dead. all my other fish seem normal so far but I fear the worst. Please let me know if you have any ideas what I could do?

So I have a fairly well planted 29 gallon tank. All my water levels are at 0ppm and have been every time I check for over two months since I got the tank fully cycled and stocked. I do once weekly water changes between 10-20 percent. I have 3 albino corys, one bristlenose pleco, one bolivian...

Hello all, hopefully someone can figure out my dilemma for me. I've got a 29 gallon fairly heavily planted tank with a sand substrate. Recently we got another tank in the house and ran through the whole cycle process. We noticed after the cycle had finished that there were some small floating...

Hello, I have a well established 30 gallon tank and am just looking at ways to make the water levels as optimum as possible for my fish. I already do weekly water changes and check the levels daily with the api master kit. I currently run both an aquaclear 50 and a tetra whisper pf10 filters...

I have not set up the tank yet, just starting to plan it so I can make sure every one lives in peace. I talked to my lfs and they said they could probably only get the agassiz that they currently have and the cacatuoides so was thinking about one of each. As for the rest was considering a...

So I have an established 29 gallon community tank and I had originally purchased an Agassiz Dwarf Cichlid for it. Unfortunately, it did not get along with the rest of my fish and I had to return it. Now every time I'm in my local fish stores I see that fish and just wish I could have one. So...

This is the best pic I could get as it has just started coming back from my last cleaning. Its the stuff near the base of the plants Sent from my SM-G860P using Aquarium Advice mobile app

It is a freshwater tank. It seems to be almost flaky once I vacuum it up. I will try to post a picture when I get home. My fish don't seem bothered by it and my water levels are fine. Just is unsightly and worried it could lead to problems in the future Sent from my SM-G860P using Aquarium...

Hello there. I've been rather enjoying my 29 gallon planted tank and since it has finally finished cycling and I added all the fish my tank has been a joy. That being said the last few weeks I have started seeing groups of white stuff that seems to sit on top of my black sand substrate. I...

Yeah I was lucky enough that the lfs took them back for credit which I used to get another bolivian. Things are much more relaxed in my tank now. Thank you so much for all the help. I do appreciate it.

I completely understand. I just want to try to find the best way to do this without any fish being harmed but still have a colorful, active aquarium.
