I use colored poster board, I have to use 2 cut down to size and you can't see the seams. It's very cheap but it works really well and there are many different colors you can buy.

My plants are Anacharis and a few Foxtail. I don't really know much about plants and those said easy to grow on ebay so I ordered them. I don't have a nitrates test kit because when I tried to buy one the guy at the LFS said not to but I will buy one tonight. Also, my male fantail guppy was a...

I tested my ph this morning and it has dropped to about 6.2 i did a 25 % water change yesterday. My tap water reading is about 7.2. I was wondering about the snails I have, could they be the cause of the lower ph? I bought some plants a few months back and low and behold I'm over run with every...

:sad: Last night I found some babies my platy had. Would the treatment be ok to use on the fry too? Also what about my bio-wheel..should I take it out? The treatment is quick-cure.

I bought some rummy nose at my LFS last night and did not quarantine them and after I put them in my tank i noticed the ich. Needless to say I was really upset because I could not catch the little boogers to put them in the hospital tank. So my question is since I need to treat my whole tank do...

Ok this may seem really stupid to ask but I have an apple snail and I really like it but she has been closed for a few days, is she dead? I hate to toss her out if she isn't. Is there a way to make it open if it's not dead maybe just sick?

I have a smaller 5 gallon tank and the reason i stopped using it was because if I turned the light on for more than an hour it would start to heat up the water. I do not have this trouble with my lager tank. I took out the tube and the only thing on it says F8TS/D . I was wondering if maybe I...

I have a power filter and a UGF both also. I love em but like everyone said it's your tank and you should do what you want with it. I could have saved money by not buying one because the power filter does a good job alone with the bio wheel. I had a UGF a few years ago and I liked it. As far as...

You are correct the sand would be too small for the UGF. I have one a lot of people here don't like them very much but thats difference in opinions. You have to use a certain size gravel with a UGF one thats not too small and one thats not too large. Sorry I am sure someone knows the exact size...

Ok I went to the only 2 fish stores we have here and neither carry otos. Nor did they act interested in ordering me any, why should they , they sold me a True Flying Fox. The man was like oh these stay small.. I read they get about 6 inches that was a little bigger than i wanted all of my fish...

So the painted tetras are injected into each fish, they weren't genetically altered to reproduce to look like that? Sorry I have just started reading up on some of them and wanted to be clear on it.. -_-

I have guppies, platies and some neons...I do a 10% water change about every 5-7 days. The looks of the algae doesn't bother me. I just wanted another fish :hey: This is a planted tank also.

I am looking to buy an algae eater.... I have 3 cory cats in a community tank. My LFS keeps trying to get me to buy a chinese algae eater. From what I have read I don't want that. Then they push the common pleco...which I know gets big. So is an oto a better choice? I have a mystery snail...
