Hello, right now PetSmart is having a sale on their tanks. The Top Fin 40 gallon is on sale for 64.99. is that a good deal and will it be a good sturdy aquarium? I am aware that there aren't any lids that fit it.

Sadly I don't think I'll be getting any large aquariums any time soon. My first year of college is starting soon and I think a 200 gallon is out of my budget🥲. And it's definitely not on the packing list lol.

Well it sounds like my pleco is pretty old but not on his deathbed yet. I plan on moving in a couple of years and if he's still kicking by then is there any advice you could give that would help me move him?

We actually got him from a family friend. He was then transfered to my dad's tank at work, and then my dad gave him to me when I set up my own tank. So he's been passed around quite a few times and 18 is just an estimate of his age. He still seems to be going strong though💪

Hello, I have a clown pleco that's about 18 years old. Is this old for his species or do they usually live this long? I'm just curious, thanks for any help you can give!

I don't have enough fish where they'll eat it over the next couple of days.

Is there a way I can test it to for sure see if it's safe? I don't want to assume anything and accidentally kill me fish

It was melted but it wasn't quite room temperature yet.

Hello, today I did a little bit of shopping and bought some frozen brine shrimp for my fish. When I got home I totally forgot to put in in the freezer until now. I'd say it's been sitting out for a few hours. Would it still be safe to feed to my fish or should I not risk it?

Yeah I'm pretty sure that they didn't have dropsy. They didn't have any pineconing.

I considered that as a possibility but I had gotten them from a very good source who's tanks are healthy and my tank already had some stocking too so I know if they have worms then it isn't from my tank

I'll try to get to my LFS soon but it's pretty far away. Both females that dies appeared to be pregnant. Would that just be a coincidence?

I have kept platies in this tank before, and I got the ones I have now from someone who lives in the same area that I do. But how would I go about testing for GH?

I would I test for GH? I've had a clown pleco in this tank for years and he's 18 but would GH levels not effect the pleco but effect the platies. It might be worth mentioning that I did have a group of male platies living in my tank about 6 years ago. But after having the males a few years they...

I started with 2 males and 4 females. I'm not at home so I can't water test but everything was 0 when I tested a few days ago and I've done a water change since then. My ph is about 7.5 and the temp is 80.

In April I was gifted 6 platies for my 20 gallon. 2 males and 4 females. A month or so after I got them one of the females died unexpectedly. She appeared to be pregnant when she died and all of the other fish in the tank were fine. A couple months go by and I get to today. When I woke up this...

My bettas and puffer

Thank you everyone for all the wonderful help!

It was labeled as a baby at the pet store. Is it possible for the babies to be any fin type?

Thank you for all of the help! I suppose I'll have to change the name now but oh well. Does anyone have an idea on what fin variety he might have, or is he still too young to know?

Hello, I'm Joselyn and I'm new to the forum. I have two 5 gallons, one with a Betta and the other has a pea puffer, a 10 gallon with a Betta, a 20 gallon with a clown plecostomus and some platies, and a 45 gallon bowfront with 3 fancy goldfish. I am super excited to join the community as I am...

Hello! I'm new to the forum and I just got a new Betta a couple of days ago. I got it at Petco and it was labeled as a baby girl. It's definitely a baby but I'm not quite sure it's a girl. It also has some very interesting and beautiful colors. If anyone would be able to tell me the gender and...
