Yes the rainbow shark is small as of now and seems to enjoy the tank.. i will be relocating to a large tank that im purchasing next month that'll have proper space for it to do its thang.

I was told angelfish are a hardy fish are they not? Also I've talked to about 2 or 3 people who have angelfish and each said that cycling with these fish is an acceptable solution to a fishless cycle.

The tank size us 47gal column (18x20x30). has 2 angelfish 3 phantom tetra and 1 rainbow shark. I do not have a gravel vac currently just the substrate flter that is currently in their. i'll need to purchase one. I do notice a lot of the flake at the bottom! I did not know that this will...

Hello all... i completed a week of fish-in cycle on Friday. The ammonia levels were 0 - .25ppm and the nitrites were 0.. while we had a good level of nitrates. I have some angelfish and wanted to see some good growth out of them so I started feeding twice a day for a little bit.. yesterday I...

Hello, I only have a 1 gallon container to do this water change.. I am changing 10 gallons of water which is about a 25% water change. Can i add the cholrine remover after its already in the tank or do i need to put it in the container a little bit at a time?

47gal Tall Column (18x20x30) In order to decorate for the fish I plan to have.. i wanted to provide lots of hiding places and areas in which each fish can feel at home. I put a large ship on the side of the tank in which the fish swim in and out freely. A hallowed tree truck in a back corner...

Many live plants carry snail eggs. Once these snails start laying eggs they will multiply quickly so I would remove those plants and those snails immediately. That is unless you like the snails in the tank and you can manage the breeding of them.

Honestly so am I... I didn't expect it to go this smoothly The kit that i bought from my LFS just great along with the manual and help that they provded so I do owe them a lot of credit for helping me get this setup. Its very exciting sitting watching my fish swim (ahah don't hear that from...

Feeding tetra flakes and pellets right now.

API Drip testing kit. didn't do the pH. ammonia was reading between 0 - .25ppm nitrite was reading between 0 - .25ppm nitrate level i forget the scale.. it was between the first and 2nd lvl on the description. Everything looked good so I'm not too worried right now. I guess a question I do...

Right now i've been doing 1 water test a day and have yet to do any water changes.. the readings have all been well within the limits of a good habitat according to the test. One thing I guess that might of bothered me a little is. I'm not sure if its the power head i have in the tank but...

ya that was my dumb impatientness poking through :) since i did get it as a very very small fish still only about an inc 1/2 long or so.. im hoping that since its in the tank with them early it'll work out nicely if not i'll transfer him to another tank suited for his needs.

Well.. it seems that all is well. I bought the drip tests. my ammonia is .25 or below along with the nitrite. The nitrate value was not high at all. The fish seem to be taking to the tank well and are eating regularly twice a day. Thanks for the help.. I'll be performing the weekly /...

One word! SHAMWOW!!!!

Hello, I have a previous post in which I got help from.. However now I need help stocking my tank. Once the tank is fish-in cycled i want to start with Angel fish as a centerpiece to the tank. But since its tall i'm not really sure what else to put in the tank. I do like color and I like...

Thanks for your help on this. Because what I'm reading on my tank... (which i should've done earlier stupid me thought I had enough info on it already) the tank is more geared towards angelfish.. I guess my next question is.. If I choose to transition the fish in the tank to angelfish.. will I...

Yes i've been reading the threads you posted and since I have the tetras already purchased, fed, and in the tank im going to choose the fish-in cycle. I will discontinue the use of the bacteria product until i have some test results.. right now I am at work so I'm unable to check. And no I do...

No pictures as of now.. my camera died at the beach last week so I need to figure that out before I can take a snapshot of the tank. I will try a fish-in cycle and see how that does within the next couple of weeks. Now to remove some of the salt content if I remove 20-25% of the water and...

Hello everyone. First let me start off by saying that about 2 months ago I decided that I wanted to try my hand at building a nice community fish tank that I can sit and enjoy watching while I am lounging around my apartment. After doing some research then talking with the localized aquarium...
