    So... Many... Babies!

    Well i know a lot of people dont like to see that answer on here, but i do fish, and fish are fish to me. I do get attached to them but i do kill fish to eat. The only thing i frown upon is mistreating fish.  And putting a smiley face after that answer really wasnt meant to be haha just did it...

    Community Tank Advice.

    You may of forgo the schooling rule with the loaches, so on that note i would take them off the list.    Now i would drop all the guppies and platys too, unless you want a ton of fry over crowding your tank, or you get all males.   So this is the stock i would do 10 neon tetras, and a school of...

    Close Up Of Fish - Whats Best Type Of Camera

    You could take a video and take photos from the video.   Or you can buy a professional camera, canon and nikon are probably the best brand name. Whether you get a good photo or not is based on your patience, lighting, lens, and shutter speed.    They arent cheap though i might add, may not be...

    So... Many... Babies!

    Could either, keep them in a over stocked tank...   Give them to your LFS for store credit (minimum) or free.   Or kill them it your choice on what you do with your fry. :D

    Just An Axie Update :)

    I just did some research and realized they wont work, they need cold water and anything under 6in will try to take bites out of everything no matter the size...   So im going to buy 2 and separate them until they are 6in and then buy a 6in later, so then there will be 3 6in+ axies in a 20...

    Just An Axie Update :)

    Do you think i could put one of these guys in my my tank? Haha, im always looking for cool oddballs, or do they need a pretty short tank for atmospheric air? I dont know much about axies if im honest lol are they aggressive to normal tank mates? Id love to buy a gold axie, i saw one before but...

    Sorry about that ch4rlie, i was in a hurry that post and didnt go look for the stuff :/

    So I Superglued My Moss And Ferns...

    You need super glue that is 100% of that cyan stuff and you do it outside of the tank and put it back in once its dry, a alternative is 100% silicone, which doesnt always work because it bonds the best with glass.

    Tire Tack Eel Feeding Advice

    It wouldnt hurt to skip a day of feeding out the week for all your fish. You should be feeding him enough to bulge his stomach, and thats about it, again if you want him obese though go ahead and feed him as much as he can eat everyday lol just means he will grow faster, poop more, and be...

    Bugs On Top Of Water?

    Were those bugs able to fly on yours? Or were they very tiny and just hopped on the surface? I keep trying floating plants and they just up disappearing... I do however have artificial floating plants.

    Bugs On Top Of Water?

    Thanks for the advise, but i dont believe a photo would help, the bugs are so small you can barely see them with the naked eye and are constantly jumping. They are so small that they literally just hop along the surface of the water like its land. I did however notice very small nats/no cms in...

    Bugs On Top Of Water?

    Hi, not really an emergency but ive noticed tiny, tiny little bugs living on the surface of my two tanks, the 180 and 55 gallon. They occurred after i got back from vacation, which means there wasnt a water change for 2-3 weeks. Well its been more than a month now and they are still there...

    Hi Im New

    O also, do you only feed chicken and lamb? Thats not exactly the best diet for them. Id recommend cut prawns/shrimp, fresh caught fish or frozen fish doesnt really matter, earthworms, mealworms (not to babies, and only as a snack, babies can choke and die on these), bloodworms, brine shrimp...

    Trick For Making Your Fish Happier

    Yes id have to agree with everyone on this. The only reason i could think this would be helpful is for a quarantine tank or for getting new or older fish to eat prepared foods, which is only really required with rare and oddball fish.

    Tire Tack Eel Feeding Advice

    When i had 3 3 tire track eels, it was in my experience that smaller eels will be more willing to eat provided foods and the larger older, most likely wild caught ones are less willing to eat any foods given to them. With that being said i had 3 tire track eels at a time which was a very bad...

    Removing Diatoms

    Maybe try upping the amount of water you change to about 50% and add some nerite snails? They do make lots of pesky sesame seeds though and they make strange patterns on your glass with their teeth but you can scrub off that haha. The snails wont really fix the problem though, the extra water...

    Looking For Algae Eating Snail

    In the 38 gallon you could get some gold rabbit snails, they are very slow producers but have been known to eat java fern.   Another snail is the nerite snail which can go in tanks as small as a 5 gallon and produce eggs that only hatch in brackish to full marine water. They eat lots of...

    Hi

    My guess is that bubbles keeps getting infections from poor water quality, so the best actions to take are to do weekly water changes of about 75% right now, since your tank probably isnt cycled. Are they gasping for air at the surface?   What temp is the tank? Can you get a photo of the fishes...
