    Hi everyone, I recently bought a 50G tank off my cousin, she's had it for a few years and she bought it from Facebook marketplace. I spotted a couple of areas that didn't look right, however, since I'm still rather new I wanted you opinion on if I should take it apart and silicone it back...

    Oh sorry, 2 Kribensis, 4 Mollies, 4 Platys, 2 Dwarf Gouramis, 2 German Blue Rams, 3 Hillstream loaches, 7 Neon Tetras. Not all at once but that's the end goal, I would like your thoughts on it actually. From what I've researched they're in the right parameters and will work for the tank size...

    How to lower water hardness fast?

    Hi all! I'm new to the forum and hobby. To keep a long story short, I've finished our fishless cycle and ordered new fish which are coming in 2 days. I've just realised I haven't checked the water hardness because I've focused on everything else. The GH is around 180 and KH around 80 which is...
