hmm .. well It's heavily planted, but no plants on top .. just low to medium height plants (dwarf hygro,e tenellus, l arcuata) I guess I could try putting some mss on top ... won't really look nice though ..

Hi I have a bit of an issue with my tiger barbs, I've got 10 green tiger barbs and 15 tiger barbs and they seem to spend most of the time on the bottom.. strangely when I turn on one fixture they swim in the middle and top but with both fixtures on they collectively just sit in a cave most of...

thanks .. another question .. I'm considering pygmy cories but I've read that they require sand.. I have soft gravel as you can see .. would that do?

I have no idea what these plants are (ones one left ,tree stump and grass are fake) any ideas? sorry for double post ...

well I threw out the store filter media and added a filter media from a hobbyist .. that should fix it .. he also gave me his old small tank filter .. is there a point of running 2 filters in a 15 gallon tank? (smaller on the right).I have no idea what brand it is or the rate of flow but I put...

hmm .. 10 pygmy rasberas , 2 Honey gourami and 6 cherry barbs sounds great .. but wouldn't that be too much? I was also wondering if I should get a second filter pad ( I noticed ,my filter penguin 150 has a space for a 2nd pad) do I have to get substrata for my live plants? all I have so far...

Hi I just started cycling a new 15 gallon tank (which isn't going too well) would that combo of fish be ok after I'm done cycling?. I was told at the store that since I got a filter rated for 30 gallons(marineland penguin 150) I can have more fish. 4 rasberas 4 cherry barbs 2 dwarf gouramis...
