So I have an 11 Day canary baby he is the joy of my life. He/she thinks I am its mommy I already named it Chester (my boyfriend picked it) and I've been hand feeding him for about two days... If anybody has any special care tips on this little guy please let me know.

I've read a lot of articles on Discus and they said the minimum was a 55 for about 5-6 discus were all these articles wrong?

Does anybody know where I can purchase some Discus and the proper care for them. If i get them I will be putting them in in a 55 gallon planted tank.

Hi I would like to know what these two plants might be. The first one I noticed growing on my driftwood about a week ago and now it has grown some more. The second one I got from a local pet shop and they called it Mayaka but I've searched it by that name various times and there seems to be no...

it looks like a molly to me, the creamsicle molly to be specific

ok false alarm techen told me to retest and it looks like my test kit is just off and it really was at 7.4 thank you so much

So I just did a water change yesterday to my 55 gallon tank I waited 24 hours after that to test my water but it turns out my PH is really really high at 8.8 maybe more but my test kit can't read higher. Everything else is fine Nitrites at 0 Nitrates at zero because of my plants and Ammonia at 0...

if i didnt put any phosphate what are the deficiencies that can be caused by lack of phosphates?

ok awesome what about potassium phosphate is that needed? and yes i have been giving flourish comprehensive on alternate days is that ok?

I actually had this once because I asked for it I liked the look . But within a few days it was gone and im assuming my fish ate it but which one is the question

Hi so im just starting to add macros to my tank I have magnesium sulfate, potassium sulfate. and potassium nitrate. If I want to make a mix for a 55 gallon..how much of each salt should I add and how much water to the mix. If there is anyway I can just pour the salts in the tank individually...

is it a planted tank? something that has worked great for me with ich is me raising the temp to about 83 or 85 degrees and dosing with lifeguard and kordons ich attack. I only treat in my quarantine though that has no plants it was safe with the scaless guys like the loaches the ich cured in...

Hi everyone I just thought I'd share my enthusiasm  so yesterday I ordered some dry fertilizers some magnesium sulfate potassium sulfate and potassium nitrate so I can dose with macros because I havent been doing that. I've had so many problems with my plants but I hope that now with adding...

I have the same problem and ive had them for several months and its never gone away the fatness i mean :/

well its about almost two feet deep and isnt there a rule that there should be two watts per gallon

Hello I have a question about plants and was wondering if anybody would be able to help me. I have a few plants that are starting to get holes in them and browning at the edges I also noticed that the new leaves that are growing are paler green that the old leaves and it looks like the veins are...

ok water chemistry looks like the PH is between 7.6 and 7.8 AMMONIA is at .25 ppm NITRITES are at .25 ppm also and NITRATES are at 0 ppm it is considerably a lot better than it was when I first started  with readings off the chart :/ I just did a 25% water change yesterday might be why...

Not too familiar with breeding them :/ sorry but keep in mind if you do try breeding them you have to separate them into a different tank and have to be ready to take care of 10+ killifish that you might not have room for

True :) just didn't want to leave them out my poor babies lol

yes killifish do well with tetras and they dont grow very big either :) definitely try those I have two and I love them they sometimes fight among eachother but it seems to be a territorial thing. They just flare up nothing more :)

that rainbow shark needs at least a 55 gallon tank and be careful because as he gets older he might become aggressive. With the size tank you have you are pretty limited I would get some more tetras maybe a gourami angelfish get big too and also need a bigger tank so I wouldn't try them try to...
