Thought I'd post a couple photos of my new 75gal. I'm liking the way the plants are filling in, hope they'll be dense bushes soon!

Hello all, I'm about to order 30 White clouds for my 75gal, and was planning on quarantining them to prevent any disasters with my current fish. My issue is that the quarantine tank that I have for them(40 gal breeder) has no bacterial activity after a few weeks of running(ammonia with no...

Here's what I could get, I was able to capture a video of one from a couple feet away, but I couldn't get any closer or it would swim away, so apologies if the quality still isn't great. Hopefully seeing some behavior could help as well New video · Thursday, Mar 12

Thanks for the advice, hopefully I won't need to re home them, but if so I do have some tanks that could take them. On second thought, It doesn't seem that they are, the garra have sucker mouths, which these don't, and a stripe above the black lateral line. The black stripe on the tail fin also...

Hello all, Ive been wondering for a while know about wether or not I have true Siamese algae eaters or not. I first bought a couple of these guys (one in picture) last spring and they've been doing well, no doubt they've been nibbling on algae, but not a lot given their size. The main thing...

I personally have used AI for assistance in the past. it can work really well, just be cautious, do your own research on anything that may seem off. Just use your best judgement and don't do anything that you think might be incorrect without researching it first.

That would be crazy! Would definitely elevate some scapes.

Hello all, I've recently picked up some NilocG Thrive all in one fertilizer, and was wondering if I could dose on Mondays and Fridays, or if it would be better to go on a every 3-day schedule?

These are some pictures of my tank from start, to today, I love looking back on these and seeing how much it's evolved.

Ok, thanks for the help! I also found your water hardness comment, I run on a interesting town water system, thats essentially stream/well water, which means that the hardness(which I haven't checked recently) could potentially fluctuate, I'll check this and then try to adjust the hardness if...

I have rather high stocking, and don't need to feed directly, rather I feed the tank as a whole with some flake, micro pellets, and sinking wafers across the whole tank in a somewhat high amount in correspondence to stocking amount to ensure every fish get food. This is the same as when they...

Hello all, a couple months ago I did a blackout on my aquarium to get ahead of some stubborn algae, now months later my previously highly active and social otos never come out during the day. I haven't changed anything else added and chemicals, the black out was the only changes factor for a few...

Hello all, I was just wondering your opinions on my crypt parva which appears to have a verigeited leaf, but from my research they don't really exist all that much, so just wondering if it's a groth defect at something rare.

I've been planning my next tank, which has a land section, and was considering rice fish due to their temperature needs, but in my research I saw that they need a lid, but I've seen people keep them without lids, and some with dense floating plants. Is a lid absolutely necessary or is there a...
