    Hey friends Setup my first planted nano tank (22l) about 5-6 weeks ago and allowed to cycle. Tested and levels were all good so introduced 7 neon tetras and 2 zebra danios. They've been getting along fine and I've been checking levels in case of ammonia spikes... was prepared for some losses...

    I have had my pink danio for about a month and a half now and it has been about a month since I first noticed her belly getting really big (which also started a few days after getting my male leopard danio) .. She is huge now and has been for weeks. I put her and the male in a breeding net and...

  9. Freshwater and Tropical Fish
    Wondering what's wrong in my tank... I have a 15 gallon with 8 glofish, a female betta, and I recently added an albino cory cat (was planning to add a couple more when my LFS gets more in). However, the glofish are nipping at the cory's fins whenever it is resting. As long as it's moving...

    I have 2 Dwarf Gouramis, 7 Zebra Danios and 2 Neon Tetras, I'm Sure that Neon Tetras wont bother them, But Im Concerned if Dwarf Gouramis and Zebras Danios will eat them, the danios are pretty big for their size. Should I add cherry shrimps in my tank? Thanks In advanced!:-P

    Added some driftwood and fish to my 20 gallon, and a bubble wall to the 55 gallon. We're new to this hobby but we're really enjoying it. My 3 year old loves going to the fish store every weekend for fish and/or supplies.

    I have never heard of fish having seizures, but it seems as though one of mine is and has been for the past 20 minutes... I am in the process of cycling a newly set-up 75 gallon tank. I set it up 2 weeks ago and purchased 5 zebra danios to help the cycle. All of the danios have done very well up...
  14. Cyprinids and Atherinids
    Hi! I'm still stocking my 29 gal community tank, and was wondering: which will look better, two small schools of 4-6 neon tetras and 4-6 zebra danios, or one big school of 8-12 tetras or danios? I really want them to school, but I don't think they will be very scared in my tank, because it is a...

    I just started a 3 gallon aquarium. It is a cheapo from Walmart. the Aqua 360 that has an aerator bottom gravel filtration system. (I know it really doesn't filter anything). I purchased some gravel, 3 plastic plants tall and 2 mediums, and a translucent plastic jelly sea amenity. So I went...

    For the past two days, one of my danios, a green glofish, has been lethargic and not eating very much. He is not swimming with the rest of the shoal and is just staying at the top of the tank and always moving his mouth. I was thinking it could maybe be ammonia posioning? The ammonia isn't very...
  19. Cyprinids and Atherinids
    I have a small tank (10g) with some danios and otos. Currently the pH in my tank is very low. I am in the process of raising it but it is a very slow and delicate process and I am not going to rush it. In the last month or so, two of my danios have died. I only have two left now, along with 2...
