    Emerald Catfish Eggs

    Bad news, the eggs were just fine until I noticed tiny, very tiny white hairy worms eating them.  I googled it and it turns out it was planaria.  Normaly I never overfeed my fish, which can cause them to show up, and my gravel is very clean thanks to my catfish, but they destroyed the eggs by...

    Emerald Catfish Eggs

    My emerald catfish just laid some eggs about an hour ago.  I hope they do well.  I tried taking a pic but I can't get my camera to focus clearly on zoom.

    High Ph

    Yeah, I'm a huge Thundercats fan.  Normally on other fan websites I go by the name queen_lynxana, but I figured since this site is an informative site, I would just use my regular email nick name.

    Well Now I Know Why My Betta's Tail Was Looking Ragged.

    You could always try a live plant.  Betas love to snuggle them and rest on them.  It's soft against them.  My Beta is a lazy thing and rests all the time on my plants, here check out my beta...     Sorry if it's a bit fuzzy, I took the pic tonight and I guess my camera doesn't have good depth...

    High Ph

    Any introduction of life will cause the PH to change, even if temporary.  You can always buy a chemical called PH Down.  I do my best to avoid chemicals if I can when it comes to freshwater tanks.  Some fish give off more acid, some more alkiline.  But with only three fish, it can't be the...

    Hello From Pennsylvania

    LOL  I can completely understand!  I have a spare 20 g long with hood and all I need is sand, (since I learned it's not only cheaper but much better....$3. 68) and I'm going to set it up in my son's room.  Right now, my LFS is selling live plants for $1 a piece.  The only thing that is going to...

    I Have Decided On My Tank

    Everything looks great!  I had no idea that they can make a heater for a tank that size.  I learned something new today :)  Any idea on what kind of Beta you want?  I have a crowntail beta.  Remember, you can only have one in a tank, so choose wisely.  ;)

    Pretty New To Fish And Happy About A Forum!

    I've never had a tank that small, the smallest I've ever had was a 10 gallon and I only used that as a quarantine tank or a live bearer breeding tank.  But since it's incadecent, it should keep the water warm enough without a heater.  Normally, they don't make heaters for tanks smaller than 10...

    55 Gallon Birthday Thread

    Gee, I didn't know you can use playsand for an aquarium!  I'll have to try that especially that it's very cost efficient.  I was so tempted today to get a 55 gal because it's onsale at the petshop I like to shop at for $55.  I love the $1 a gal sale.

    Hello From Pennsylvania

    I will start off with doing a 25% water change on Monday.  I just bought a few swordtails two hours ago as I saw online that they might eat them and so far, they have been eating them like candy.  :)  I didn't want to risk doing a partial water change tonight because I didn't want to stress the...

    Hello From Pennsylvania

    NCguppy, I just tested the ammonia levels just now since you mentioned it and the reading from my master kit is 0.50 ppm.  Do you suggest that perhaps I should do a 20% water change?

    Hello From Pennsylvania

    Hi, I'm new here but I've been keeping fish for years as a hobby.  One of the main reasons that I joined here was after all my searching online, I can't find a way to get rid of Ostracods from my freshwater tropical aquarium.....they won't stop multiplying and my neon tetras, cory catfish and...
