Yes! GLA is certainly the way to go. You really get what you pay for with CO2 systems

Did the other tank have the same water? If not did you acclimate?

Ich indeed. Use Kordon ich-attack. its all herbal and wont hurt the other fish in the tank. I had great results in a week or two using ich-attack. E

Where are you getting for fish from? I personally did fish-in cycling and had two deaths, but it was because they jumped out of the tank, not the water quality. Maybe get some hardy low light plants in there? Plants love the cycling process and i use plants and a couple fish to cycle my tanks.

Sounds good. I have a flying fox in there. You think they will get along? In Soviet Russia iPhone You!!

Dosed with excel and flourish daily, high tech planted, ecotech lighting, glaco2, etc.

That would be a tasty treat for my elephantnose.

I've read that they aren't the best at actually eating algae, do you have experience with them? E

Hey All! So I just had to get rid of my 9.5" long rhino pleco, as he was too big for my tank, but also pooped so much it was killing my bio-load (not a good thing for a discus tank.) I am looking for warm water (my tank is at 82.5 degrees for the discus) algae eaters. I currently have a flying...

Yes, removal will be required.

Certainly doesnt hurt and you get a check valve to put in line for fairly cheap. I know my LFS has them!

I got them from my buddy who owns amazing animals in Danielson CT. He gets them from elrich, who apparently has a huge discus pond with trees growing out of it in his basement. I got the blue diamond for $15 and the scribble for $25 and they are both doing quite well! In Soviet Russia iPhone You!!

Finally got some discus in my tank. Two for now, and two to go! In Soviet Russia iPhone You!!

Grabbed a shot of my discus last night (which has been tough to do). I have a blue diamond and a red scribble and will be adding more soon. They are thriving and doing well! So happy with these fish and tbe best part, I got the diamond for $15 and the scribble for $25. It pays to know a LFS...

I hear ya, but plants are great for cycling tanks. I cycled my old 55g with plants. Never had an issue. Just a thought. Keep on it and itll cycle. In Soviet Russia iPhone You!!

Keep going. Frequent water changes to keep the ammonia down, and eventually those nitrites and nitrates will start to rise, and ammonia will diminish. I just cycled my new 60g cube and it took less time than my 10g. As you implied, small tanks are much harder to maintain correct...

My Farolowella, the late Allen, was always out and about. I don't remember him every trying to hide to be honest. One thing I will say, they aren't the best swimmers due to their unique body shape. Allen met his demise by getting sucked into the powerhead. Love these fish!

First off. Im not a salt guy, nor do I claim to be. My buddy had this same issue on his 100g salt. For awhile he just scrubbed his live rock and used his fish net to clean it off the substrate. After awhile of it not getting any better, he broke down and bought a protein skimmer. Since then...

Alright, its definitely a cichlid of some sort. Im certainly not an expert with cichlids, however, it looks to me like a Female Paratilapia Polleni. I have a male at work (the only cichlid I have) and he is black with colorful specs. The females are known to be more pale, and considering they...

I have used it with no issue. The only thing I've seen that you cant use is API Leaf Zone. It specifically says not for use with Inverts.

Can you provide a picture?

Im quite aware a normal sized pleco is too large for this tank. Hes less than 2" at the moment and I plan on raising him and either putting him in my 60 or selling him. In Soviet Russia iPhone You!!

Would something like this work? Fluval EDGE Pre-Filter Sponge https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002LL32RY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_vKdQwbER5YSWB In Soviet Russia iPhone You!!

Good call! Any specific one I should get? Its Aquavitro Aquasolum. I think it may be a Fluval brand? Not sure but I know they only sell it in stores. In Soviet Russia iPhone You!!

Hey All! Finally got my 10g setup with shrimp, a green phantom and a few baby danios. Ill be adding a few more colorful shrimp soon. Currently just planting some dwarf hairgrass and whatever the plant that came with my shrimp is. Ill be posting updates here on fish but more importantly plants...
