I'm setting up a 15 gallon planted tank and want to use a canister filter for filtration. I've found a Marineland 350 magnum canister filter for sale near me for a reasonable price. Would this be too much for a 15 gallon? (It's rated for up to 100 gallons) Also, the person selling it had it on a...

I recently bought an Aquaeon water changer in the hope of making water changes easier, but it doesn't fit on my sink. The adapter is too large to be screwed into the sink nozzle. Is there anything I can do? I haven't been able to find a part the Aqueon themselves make that would help me out...

I'm not too keen on neons, they're a bit too common and more colorful than what I wanted. The tank is currently at the glass shop, so no pictures. It almost looks like someone shrunk a 12 gallon long Mr.Aqua tank or cut the top off of a 6.6 gallon bookshelf case, but cooler, because it's a slate...

I'm looking for a shoal for a peculiarly shaped tank and would like to add a small shoal of fish. There's just SO many different kinds of schooling fish that it's getting overwhelming.The tank is 5.5 gallons *but* its 24" long, 6.5" wide, and 8" tall, so it has plenty of horizontal swimming...

Woohoo! Thanks guys, I'll check them out.

I should have a spot open soon from a betta that is moving to my mothers salon (I've infected her), and of course I need to fill it with another betta. My PetCo does have some exceptional quality bettas they rang from marbled to super yellows to a pastel blue and red butterfly superdelta (I...

In my experience bettas "color up" when introduced to a spacious tank with warm, clean water. While in the store bettas are subjected to cold water that is generally dirty and a cramped cup. As long as you keep his tank clean and the temp around 78 degrees he should brighten up. Bettas that...

Are shrimp or snails better at cleaning up algea? I have a 10 gallon that is in need of some serious Aldea eating citizens. I was thinking ~15 Amano shrimp or ~3 Horned Nerite snails. Also, how are Nerites in the waste department? At one time I had some Apple snails and they were terrible about...

The easiest way to divide a betta tank is using a diy divider. Here's one instructional thread, but there are a ton of available ones on different forums http://www.bettafish.com/showthread.php?t=40025 These dividers are partially see through, so there might be some initial flaring, but they...

Thanks guys, I think that I'll go with C. hastatus. Now to find the perfect piece of drift wood.

The tank is 24" long, 17" tall, and 18.5" deep. I was hoping to have a shoal of Chilli Rasbora, about 4 Dario Dario (1m 3f), and some bottom dwelling fish.

I'm thinking of getting a shoal of pygmy cories, but first I'd like to know what level they swim at? (Upper, middle, or bottom) If they don't remain at the bottom, are there any cories that suitable for a 13 gallon aquarium that keep to the bottom layer?

Sponge filters are great for bettas, but hang in the back filters with an adjustable current can have the input on one side and the outflow on the other. This helps to maintain proper filtartion on both sides. Or, you could hook up two sponge filters; one on each side of the divider.

One of my bettas with swim in a circle if asked and will jump to grab a pellet off my finger. It's very comical xD

Then I suggest you drop it XD. Ahahaha, get it drop the beat.. Sorry, I'll take my puns and late answers and go to bed.

Liquorice Gourami or Parosphromenus deissneri

Oh, that's really cool

Correct PP. And my apologies, but I'm curious, how exactly to the .. do their pleco thing agenst the glass? Are they using their mouth to suck? Or...

I didn't even see it TT, if that makes you feel any better.   Hopefully I can fool you guys with a fish that doesn't stick to the walls of an aquarium (not that it's a bad thing). 

L114 Redtail Leopardus Pleco

Curious question, what about fostering? Would that count as technically not yours or yours seeing as its owned by the rescue and you're part of the rescue and such. I know we are getting into the technical stuff here.

*whistles* I have no idea what you guys are talking about with this he/she muck up. Sorry PP

He could always do an easy one. Like this genuine plushy pleco:

Eel tailed catfish Tandanus tandanus. He looks like something that would hang out with dinosaurs.

Have you tried crushing up the pellets? If that doesn't work you could get New Life Spectrum small fish formula. Make sure you feed him small meals multiple times a day.

Dind ding ding! Good job TT

Oh jeez, I'm tempted to give the answer to someone else now! And no

I wouldn't thank anyone just yet, I could always do another betta xD

I second TooManyChoices. betta rutilans? On a cooler note, look what I found during my searches http://reefbuilders.com/2013/06/18/incredible-freshwater-fish-jeweled-betta-impossible-ignore/ (I like this betta a lot more than the one posted)

Mhkay, I am seeing that all wild bettas look very similar. Betta livida

Betta Ocellata?

Hmm, betta unimaculata?

I'm just wondering if Ceramic Cichlid Rocks are safe to use with shrimp. Would they go inside them or use them in anyway? Has anyone ever used them with their shrimp? They look like they would provide a good place for the shrimp to walk explore and hide in. If you don't know what I'm talking...

Wow! He's stunning PP!

Correct! Isn't he cool looking!

I usually guess and then scramble to find something later on. I highly recommend it as a strategy.

 Ok, here we go

TallTree can have it, he had most of it first.
