This is a 55 gallon I recently got from a friend, just finished the hardscape. Thoughts?

I am getting a 55 gallon tank from a friend, and I am planning on scaping it and heavily planting it. This is my first large tank, so I am still figuring out everything I need. I know what light I want, as well as what heater, plants, and fish, but I was looking for some help as to what canister...

So they look to both be females, but they also look young so it is hard to tell. I do believe that they are both females though

So my pair of kribs has had several batches of eggs in the past few months. They kept disappearing and I had no idea why, but one day I found my pleco helping himself to some fresh eggs. I removed him and let the parents do their job. About a week later, the pair has 20 or so fry that have been...

I Know what your saying, but he is being extremely aggressive, and the female definitely is ready to breed as she is very full of eggs. I am not sure what it is but it definitely isn’t breeding.

Today I bought a pair of Kribs for my 29 gallon which has a pair of golden wonder killies and some rummynoses. At first everything was fine, and the female was even flashing her side at the male in what I assume was a breeding display of some sort. About an hour ago I noticed that the female...

Yes I think it is because she has been chasing the male around a lot

I just noticed that my female apisto has started swimming at an angle, possibly some sort of swim bladder issue maybe due to stress from breeding. Should I be worried? Also, she won’t let the male get anywhere near the breeding cave. I may set up a tub that I have with a sponge filter from...

Interestingly enough, I just found a bunch of eggs! I have some prepackaged fry food, but I might hatch some baby brine shrimp for them. Any care tips for the fry? I noticed the eggs but for some reason the male and female are still showing very aggressive breeding behavior. The female is mostly...

I have a fairly new pair of apistogramma aggassizii In my planted 29 gallon. Recently, they have been going around and around in circles, nipping at each other and flaring there fins and gills. At first I thought it was breeding, but it seems kind of aggressive, so I’m afraid they are fighting.

i don’t have the space for quarantine, all my parameters at in my aquarium details. i feed flakes, hikari pellets, bloodworms and tubifex worms i do water changes once a week

i have had this electric blue ram cichlid for about 2.5 weeks. a few days after the buy, he got ich. i treated it and it is now gone. yesterday, i noticed that his right eye is bulging and cloudy. i gave him a salt bath for 20 minutes about an hour ago. i really don’t want to lose this fish, is...

maybe that’s why they hang out with my apistos, because they have a similar shape/color patterns. i’m just glad that they all get along. they are still young so i guess i will see. also, if i do decide to breed them, how should i go about it? i don’t want to move the parents. should i just let...

the temp is 82. i was planning on getting rams for a while so i kept the water at 82 for a few weeks before to see how my other fish reacted, and they all are doing well. Also, will gbrs and ebrs breed?

i recently purchased 2 rams (1 gbr female 1 ebr male) they are both small juveniles. at first glance, they look healthy. they were eating within minutes out of the bag. however, i have noticed that the ebr has a slightly sunken belly and the gbr has lightly colored, but not exactly white...

i may just end up adding another female and maybe they breed, but i doubt it.

my pair of panduro are tank bred and have shown some breeding habitats but the male is uninterested. i think they have a higher ph tolerance being tank bred. i’d add a pair of a different species if i could but i dont know if i should

within the pairs would be 1 male and 1 female so there would be multiple males if there was more than 1 pair. i’m not as concerned about female fighting because that are more laid back. everything on google says that they’re temp compatible with rams, my tank is at 82 right now that’s one of...

i have a 29 gallon planted tank with a pair of apistogramma panduro. other stocking is in aquarium details. i was wondering if it would be ok to put either a pair of rams or a pair of a different apisto species in the tank.

a female betta would probably get killed and eaten. my fish can be way out of character in terms of aggression. my female swordtail harasses my apistos sometimes
