  1. Beginner Freshwater Aquarium
    Hello everyone! About 4 months ago I decided to start a home freshwater aquarium or two for the first time. I went with a 29 gallon for a variety of fish and a 9 gallon for a Betta.

    Hi, I recently got a tank of 3 guppies and one aquatic mystery snail. It’s a 3.5 gallon tank with a filter, heater, decoration and fake plant. One of the guppies was much smaller than the others when we bought it and recently he had been disappearing. I don’t know where he went in the tank and I...

    Hello! So I recently got a tuxedo guppy and a fancy guppy. So my first issue is with the tuxedo guppy, I noticed the second day I had him that his tail was ripped.

    I set up my fish tank exactly one week ago. Last saterday i added water to the tank, dechlorinated it with stress coat and let the filter run. The next night i added two sunburst platys and three neon tetras. I believe the neon tetras were sick before i bought them, but I didn't realize. They...
  8. Freshwater and Tropical Fish
    Greetings, I started my freshwater tank with a live cycle exactly 1 week ago. I bought the tank setup from a friend of mine who'd upgraded. When I bought the tank it had been running for about 2 months. However, when I brought it home, we drained all but about 1 inch of water from the...
