He everyone, My guppy tank is spiking ammonia after a 50% water change a few days ago. It must be cycling but I cannot understand why. It’s never done that before. I used Prime and and Stability. Fish are pretty unhappy. The tank is over a year running just fine. Guppies are second generation of...

I wouldn’t mind keeping them. They’re kind of interesting and I will definitely separate them so they don’t breed. I can’t tell what sex yet. I wonder if they will have a shorter lifespan?

Hi all - Please take a look at my 3 week old guppy fry and let me know why you think their spines are shaped this way and what I might do about it, if anything. Thank you!

Hi all- my dwarf rainbows has a red spot on his side. I have no idea what it is. Any ideas? Thank you..

Hi all, Would you please tell me what type of algae these are and how to deal with them. I think one is hair algae. What have your experiences been with it? Do I need more co2? Thank You!!

Everything I’ve read about gouramis says they like pretty still water. I just put this young pearl female in my 40 gallon tank (because the other female was picking on her in the quarantine tank) and she’s sticking right with the rainbows, swimming back and forth at the front glass, through the...

No meds. I thought I would just keep them in the quarantine tank and see how they do for a few weeks.

Thank you! No, my thermometer is reading 75°. They are now a bit off of the gravel, but still very still and just kind of sitting there. I noticed they got scared when I walked by the tank. They’re definitely stressed and shy.

I got them home, put the bag into my 5.5 gal quarantine tank. (Ammonnia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate 20, PH 7.5). They are both laying on the bottom...

YESSS!!! I just love it!! Other experienced fish people told me about them, and boy were they right. How many do you have and in what size tank?

I know! I just love them!

Here’s some pictures of my funny, beautiful albino corydoras.

Cool! Thank you..

Yes he was. I was worried. But I went to bed. I woke up and she was swimming around the aquarium like normal and no more babies (either inside or out!). Luckily I grabbed 7 of them I found being chased by the other female last night before she ate them. So I have 7 babies in a little mesh baby...

Hi- I came downstairs to find some fry in our 10 gallon tank which has two females and a male I purchased to mate with them. I’m not sure which female hawks the babies because the. Both got pregnant at the same time. One of them, however, is laying on her belly on the top of the heater kind of...
