I'm interested in getting a snake and I heard that corn snakes are good for beginners. I know the recommended size for an enclosure is 4 x 2 x 2 and that seems to be the standard size most places have but I read they like to climb so I was wondering if there were taller options and what/where...

Hello all, I'm hesitant about getting floating plants because I already have what appears to be really small MTS and I don't want to risk pond/bladder snails too (I loathe those, but weirdly I don't mind MTS or ramshorns too much lol). I'm thinking about getting hatchet fish or gertrudae and...

So this happened at work while I was gone for 3.5 weeks. There was someone doing water changes for me while I was gone but they didn't know how to fix this and honestly neither do I since I'm not sure what exactly happened. I also can't find my test kit anywhere but all the fish seem to be doing...

Okay so I just noticed that I have a bloom of pest snails (like hundreds throughout the tank, I won't lie I am surprised since I haven't added any new plants and just noticed 1 of these snails about a week ago. When I looked very closely today they are EVERYWHERE). They look like baby MTS. I'm...

I'm trying to find a centerpiece fish (and maybe some bottom dwellers?) that won't hide alot and was hoping for suggestions please! The tank was set up in September of 2023 and it's planted with an Aquaclear 70 filter. The starting stock was 1 Blue Ram and 14 neon tetras. Later we added guppies...

Thank you!

Thank you! And I’m sorry, I haven’t been on in a bit and couldn’t remember what types of links are and aren’t allowed. It’s this lid...

Please does anyone have this lid for their 36 gallon bowfront tank? I need to know the dimensions of the plastic part on the back to see if my filter will fit. I have an AquaClear 70 filter on my tank right now. 36 Gallon Bow Front Aquarium Glass Top

Please keep in mind that "successfully" is subject to the "surviving is not thriving" rule. Almost any fish is not hardy enough to survive in a 1 gallon tank since ammonia builds up fast in such a small tank. Then with the drastic changes in parameters after a water change the fish is likely to...

Bumping for responses.

I actually thought one of my mystery snails was dead because it was on it's back slightly hanging out for 2 days, the snails are about 5 months old. When I went to remove it, it finally closed its shell fully so I put it right side up with some food in front of it. Finally came out of it's shell...

In the image it shows what I think is poop hanging from the fish and it was apparently like that for a while before I came to work. Which is why I just wanted to double check that it was just poo. The fish is also slightly bloated. I did forget to say that in the initial post. Told her I'd just...

He’s swimming around a bit slower. I think this is poop from over feeding (tried explaining to my boss that we should feed every other day but she feeds them daily anyway), but I wanted to double check. I will add, of the original 3 guppies and 3 endlers I got, two of the guppies died and this...

Yes but they're also submersible lights, I just don't like the look of lights in the tank. That's a good idea! The only other thing I could think of was super gluing the suction cups.

Does anyone have light suggestions for under the lid?
