    Noticed this fish had white looking lips and a white patch behind its head. Any suggestions on what this may be?

    Hello! Gratz on the tank. I tried the Dog route before the tank and personally that's just not for me. I like having bacteria clean up my fish waste. My carpets prefer fish also haha. you'll end up spending a little more but the good news is that the spending tapers off unlike other consuming...

    what rainbows are these?

    Micro bubbles

    whenever i do a water change at 50% or more ill have a tank with bubbles all over. It comes from the python hose. takes a day or 2 to go away. or you can just wipe them away on your own. my water was cloudy also, it was dust from the substrate.

    Considered that. Test just now show everything at 0. Got some seachem stability to give it a go. I think the cloudiness was from the 4 bags of eco-complete. was quite a dust cloud from those. And yeah I'm keeping the light minimal until my other plants arrive.

    thanks for the plant list! that helps a ton. now i just have to decide how i want to proceed on lighting. the satellite is nice but man its pricey. Finnex has some nice lights also but seem to lack the features. but they are also nearly half the price. also concerned about algae growth. so im...

    Newbie! 60g tropical

    yeah i was thinking the same thing, the tank is great for a forward view. i was surprised to see it so tall and thin. ive been looking into a way of upgrading the lighting today. doesn't have to be led persay, but as you can tell im a bargain hunter and I like to mix quality with value. also...

    thanks for the great insight. i picked up the API master kit from amazon they currently have it for 18$ i think i will give live plants a shot, the natural look of a tank really appeals to me.

    thanks for the suggestions, included a pic of the start. what i was considering doing was a canister/hob combo. the deal on the aquaclears ended unfortunetly. but petsmart has the fluval 306 canister for $110 right now and that seems like a good deal. but im not sure how big canisters are. i...
