    How to set up a refugium

    I will be setting up a 1.5 gallon refugium for my pride and joy- my 20 gallon planted community. I know it's small but I would like to lower nitrates and algae and also a safe place to culture amphi and Copepoda and also a place to keep feeder guppies as a constant fry live food supply. Any tips...

    Male guppy panting on bottom of tank

    I'm thinking either "boring diet syndrome" or constipation or bloat need pics. Move him gently into a quarantine jar or tank and give him a deshelled smashed pea thats soft. also vary the diet (of all the fish) with some biweekly peas and spirulina flakes. I raise guppies.

    Mozambique Tilapia and Red Devil?

    Today I got 3 "Hawaiian Gold" Tilapia for my pond- all around 8''. I was wondering wether i could put a 6-7" R.D. in my 70 gallon pond. It currently only houses 3 tilapia and a few pond snails. It has a lot of hiding spots FYI. Thx Luke B.:fish2:

    Breeding Guppies in Tupperware

    So, I am on a budget but have taken an interest in breeding guppies. Right now I have a 2.5 gallon fry tanka and a 5 gallon grow out tank. I was just thinking, could I breed guppies in Tupperware? I would hook up a air stone to the bins ~ 2 gallons each and change the water once a week. Only 2...

    Half Giant plakat betta in community aquarium?

    Well, my mom didn't let me pick out the fish that would be best for the tank, since i believe the long fin bettas have suffered terribly in the face on filter current, and end up having their fins ripped, but she decided to pick out the smallest (Guppy size), most fragile long fin betta at...

    Half Giant plakat betta in community aquarium?

    I have kept bettas in my planted community (20g) for nearly 8 years. No problems. I have heard plakats are more aggressive, but never had that variety. I figured plakats could better fend for themselves against my passive GBR, guppies, and neons, in terms of getting to the food fast enough. Any...

    What is the one fish you REGRETTED buying?

    Plecos. They are super aggressive and take too many giant craps. They mess up the tank more than cleaning it. They also eat live plants. And dig. And ate my prized and especially smart angelfish.

    Why do my cory's keep dying?

    Gravel is really bad for cories, and the symptoms seem like they are chlorine poisoning, but I think you would be medicating the water. Add ~1/2 tsp. of API aquarium salt per gallon. I have 8 cories, one of whom is 9 years old, and I know salt is OK in small quantities for them, I know there...

    Guppy birth gone wrong!!!

    QT the guppy,and add 1 1/2 teaspoons of aquarium salt per gallon and keep the temp at 81 degrees. make sure the tank is bare, and yes, look up hemorrhagic septicemia or whatever, but if it happened immediately after the birth, I am 100% sure it is not a disease. Feed it freeze dried bloodworms...

    Mental issues in betta?

    My betta is acting strange. He has decided to camp out in one cave all day and only occasionally dart up for air. His fins have gotten shorter, and this has been going on for 4 weeks now, since we got 2 GBR's. The GBRs ignore the betta though, and mostly chase after the catfish when they enter...
