    Need some help deciding what to use for ferts

    So I've had my 20 gallon running for about a year now. Always had plants in there and doing decent, through the neglect and hard times, they've always done well. Mostly crypts in there. Threw a huge anubias in there. Sag. To see what would happen, everything was alright. I started with co2...

    New fish for my planted aquarium?

    I want to get new fish for my planted aquarium and since I've kept the same fish for the past 2 years, I've kinda lost touch on my options. I would like tetras but I'm open. It's a 20 gallon that's fully stocked with plants and driftwood and I run co2. The cohabitants are Nerite snail...

    Worried about my co2 tubing!!!

    As you can see from the pics, idk how normal this is or if it even is normal but the "co2 tubing" I bought from a hydroponics store on eBay seems to be expanding. It goes down once the co2 is shut off. As you can see on the left is the co2 tubing with nothing going through it, the right is the...

    What am i doing wrong?!

    I just setup my co2 system yesterday and thought everything was fine. But now my co2 isn't dispersing or being used correctly. I'm annoyed. At first I thought it was my co2 diffuser so I took it out and requested a return on eBay. I put an airstone temporarily just to see how it goes. It doesn't...

    Best cheap co2 diffuser?

    Thinking of going with a cheap ceramic diffuser from eBay but don't want a Chinese rip off product that'll break with one tap. Any body got suggestions? I'm also looking a fluval ceramic diffuser. (Might end up with that one)

    Cycling tips

    I'm currently cycling my 20 long and I cut two filter pads from my other two tanks to jumpstart it. As of now I'm currently running it bare bottom with only a piece of drift wood in there, should I add my sand so it can gather the beneficial bacteria? Or will it make it faster/easier to cycle...

    Anybody use shop lights?

    Starting up a 20 long and looking for a cheaper option when it comes to a light fixture. I would prefer something that handles t8 or t5 bulbs and a shop light is the next best option imo when it comes to the price. 30 inches and I would like if it could grow low light plants.

    Random fish death

    My pearl gourami that I purchased maybe 2 weeks ago just randomly died, I'm guessing it was stress. He was pretty skittish, barely even breathed from the surface which was even weirder. He used to stay all the way at the top half the time then I'd look again and he'd be hiding under driftwood or...
