    What is a discus fish?

    Since I have a 36 1/4" aquarium, I was wondering if it was too short being 16 3/4" high and 13 58" wide. (30 gallon) I am really loving the look of this fish. Fran

    They just abandon them? Wow! I can't imagine how cruel that must be! Who cares for the "pond"? Are there other breeds of aquirium fish in there? BB

    How can you tell if your betta is a dyed fish?

    I checked out the deathbydyeing website and bettas were listed. I thought that they were naturally colored by selective breeding. I am wrong? BB

    What type of betta is he?

    Alright I'll get the BettaMax tomorrow. HOwever, I have never added salt to his tank, how much? It's the 2 gal with 3 zebra danios (sm) and Beaux. He's had this double veil since before he came home with me in March. I just thought he was a "special" breed. This may never heal to be one...

    Demensions of a 29 us gal tank?

    Eeep! I measured L36 1/4" W 12 5/8" H 16 3/4" Which would place it at 33gals ---->HOWEVER that is around the top of the tank's wood frame. The actual glass measures: L36" W12" and the H is impossible be/c of the trim....from the standard sizes chart on "All-Glass" website the height should be...

    lfs complaints

    I believe that they are not putting warranty on their fish be/c they don't know what type a fishkeeping enviroment their fish are being sold into. So, rather that "screen and school" their customers, they are just not taking back dead/diseased fish. That's how it was once explained to me. BB

    Would you take a look?

    Blue Beaux is new to my home. I never really stared hard at him when I got him this past March after my 3 yearold red betta Rhedt died, but I have here lately and I have noticed that he looks nothing like Rhedt! He doesn't flare, he eats as if he's starving, gulping food down, and if you look...

    LFS never heard of fishless cycling!

    I went to look for female bettas (found but the dead littered the bottom of their tanks), so I decided to check out the cannister filtration systems since my Mangnum 350 looks too old too use and I was approached by a sales man. He asked what I was looking for and I told him. He stated taht...

    What is a discus fish?

    Well, I guess I am sensitive. I just wanted to know more about the fish and everyone just started talking about how hard they were to care for. Where do they come from? What's their natural habitat like? How are they kept? Are they a shoaling fish? Agressive? Dosile? Build nests? BEar live...

    What can I do with this 2.5 gallon?

    I didn't "get rid" of the algea. I cleaned the glass by wiping it away, vaccumed the rocks, and removed the decor, scrubbing it well in tank water. The algea is not harmful to my fish (lfs tell me) and I trust that my water levels are good be/c they say so as well. BB

    What can I do with this 2.5 gallon?

    Be careful not to overstock. My tank is currently overstocked but they don't seem to be worse for wear...however, I am going to just tell you what they are telling me. 1 gallon for one inch of adult fish. So your betta and one other fish is really all should be in that tank. I have three...

    What is a discus fish?

    Awww, he's pretty. But since I only have a 30 gal tank and I am so new at fish keeping and everyone here is so eager to point out that I couldn't take care of such a fine fish, I think that I'll stick to making my 30 gal tank a giant betta bowl. Thanks for the encouragement y'all! BB

    What is a discus fish?

    Thanks! I would never consider breeding any fish now! I am the proud mama to my 3rd betta. I have been a very good mama to them all and I hope that my 30 gallon tank will be home to new coloful (naturally) fish that are as fun to watch as my betta. Fran

    Blue beta water at the LFS

    LOL! I called the LFS and told them that they caused this reaction and they said that they were sorry. I wish they'd just had told why the water was blue instead. Here I am thinking that it was dyed to make the fish look pretty. I scolded them for it. LOL! They are probably laughing at me...

    Blue beta water at the LFS
