  1. Freshwater and Tropical Fish
    I have a 37 gallon aquarium and am thinking about what to get. I have had various Cichlids and Brackish Water fish in the past. I was wanting to get something interesting, and of a good size; even if its just 1 fish. Leaning more towards a spotted puffer, or some type of Cichlid again, but open...
  2. Beginner Planted Aquarium
    Hello! I have no experience with live aquatic plants, but I currently have a flounder and Tuesday I am getting an axolotl. Out of curiosity, I figured I would investigate and see if there are any benefits to possibly adding live plants to my tank? It stays at a steady 70 degrees and has black...

  4. Beginner Freshwater Aquarium
    Hi there, I set my aquarium up two months ago, leaving it to cycle for just over a month. In the tank whilst it was cycling I had only drift wood, plants and a plant in a terracotta pot. After ammonia and nitrite levels went up and then came back down I was told the tank was cycled so I...
  5. Beginner Freshwater Aquarium
    I will be getting a 50 gallon tank this week and plan to plant it heavily. The water from my tap is (after D-Klor and resting for 24 hours): pH: 8.0 gH: 6-7 kH: 6-7 I haven't had any ammonia/nitrite/nitrate register. I'm finding that a lot of the fish that I am drawn to require pH closer to...

    Howdy y'all! I have a nice 5-6 gallon ADA tank where everything is growing quite well except my Java Moss. It has turned brown and has mostly died. I don’t know what I am doing wrong except possibly not enough water flow? I have cut it way back in hopes it might rebound. Here are my aquarium...

    Hello all, It's been a long time since I was here. I'm in the process of cycling my tank. My water is alot different from where I used to live. I'm getting back in the hobby!

  10. Beginner Planted Aquarium
    I have a 15 gallon tank which has been established for about a year. It has no lighting (any light it gets is natural or from the single warm fluorescent light in the room, which is mounted on the wall and not all that far from the tank, but certainly not direct light.) At present I have...
  11. Freshwater and Tropical Fish
    Hey all, was toying with the idea of making a change in stocking. Currently, I have 5x Black Widow Tetra and 4x Serpae Tetra. I know these should be kept in larger groups, so that's definitely a possibility to add more. I also have 3x emerald cory and 1 clown pleco. It is medium-planted (working...
