I would agree to look at ebay I have senn them new for less than half the price in lfs. I have a 404 on a 90gal and it has worked great fro 2yrs. Good luck.

I do have a 90gal tall (48x13x32) that has severums in it I could move when I get a larger tank. So how long do you think the mono's will survive well in the 55gal? I also am wondering what type of filtration I would need, what type of substrat, and what kind of eqiupt I would need to get? I...

Need some help setting up a new tank for some monos. From top to bottom, I have a empty 29 and am going to get a 55. Thanks

I keep 3-DPs and a spiny eel in a 20 gal tang with live plants. I keep the tank brackish also. I also have a 55 brackish with sailfin molly's which has 2-different types of swords and bronze winditti in it for about a year. The mollys really bread well.

thanks I am still in the starting stage and will report all the details as the fish and plants grow.

Well this is how it turned out.

I have access to the clear tubes that hold the cups on water coolers and used this for my loaches ( I have 11 in a 90 gal). I cut it in half and used glue to connect them and ran it across the front of the tank. I took another tupe and cut a hole in it for a 90 going up to the surface. The only...

Thanks, the links are great. I guess I was also looking for a little insight from some one that might have a planted tank with mollys in them. I still need some advice on filtration I.E. a power filter or a canister. Also sorry about the caps but the wife is telling me to get the tank set up...

Hello everybody. I just got a new 55 gal tank and would like to try it as a planted tank. I would like to transfer my mollys to it. I need some advice on how to start from the ground up( light-gravel). I want some plants that can handle a little salt in the water to. Any help would be great, Thanks.

I add salt to the tank and have a few plants in it. I was thinking about a planted tank with a sand bottom. I am not all that well vesed in the needs of a planted tank and was wanting to take a shot at it.

If the fry are a month old go ahead and dump them in with every body else. I don't know how long the fry can last in stagnet water (no circulation or oxygen) they should do fine. You will lose some but that is just nature.

Hi everybody. I have anew 55 gal and want to transfer my sailfin molly's to it from the 20 gal. I want to have it set up like a natural molly habitat. Does anyone have any suggestions????????????????

I just had two females give birth in my 20 gal molly tank and everybody is doing fine. Molly's do not eat there young although I am not sure about the platty's. I had clown loaches in the tank but had to take them out because they were eating the fry. I now have two small skunk loaches in the...
