75 gallon

Hi all, I thought that it would be nice to create a dedicated thread for my new 280L tank. I've had the tank for a long time, but things are moving now and progress is being made. Here's what I've got so far: Mangle wood, beach stones and play sand All of the plants ready for planting

I'm still brainstorming bottom dwellers for my 280L, and I think it would be cool to have a few species at the bottom. I already have my juvenile bolivian ram cichlid in QT. I am looking for fish that are peaceful and won't eat my hengels rasboras (about an inch in size). While I like the idea...

I have a 75 gallon and a 100 gallon aquarium, and I would like to know how many rope fish and Senegal bichirs I can keep together in each tank (if possible). I don't think that aggression will be a problem, because the rope fish will be larger than the bichir. I would prefer to keep them in my...

Hey guys, I continue to love the forum and i'm hoping to get some help or inspiration here. My tank finally completed cycling on monday so we got some fish yesterday. I'm running a fluval fx4 with extra biomedia and 40 gallon sponge filter with a little biomedia as well. My stocking choices thus...

Hey everyone, I posted initially to the welcome section and didn't want to post another thread there. So, per the advice i received in that thread, i have gotten the canister filter up and running and the plants in. You'll see in the photos where the pH sits so my stocking advice can be a little...

1- I am going back and forth between HOB, Submersed, or Cannister filter. Can somebody explain to me why whether it is worth it or not to invest in a canister filter over a Fluval C Power Series (HOB)? I understand that canister filters can be customizable but could they cause too much hassle...

I plan to get a 75 Gallon tank in the FAR future, but I am absolutely determined to get rope fish for the tank. However, despite being peaceful, these guys like their midnight snacks, so small tankmates are out of the question. Could I get some suggestions for tank mates? I'd like 1xBig Fish+X...

I'm sorry if this is in the wrong category...i wasn't sure where to put it. I'm looking at setting up a 75gal tank (probably a long) at some point in the future. It will be heavily planted with driftwood and plenty of hiding places. Im looking at stocking it with some of the following...

I plan to start a 75 gallon planted aquarium, does anyone know a good brand of aquarium lights to use for it? Also does anyone know any hardy plants that can sustain a bit of wear and tear from a large fish?   

Good afternoon All,    My name is Sam and I'm from New Jersey, USA. I have recently purchased a 75 gallon freshwater aquarium and I am looking on input on my ideas for stocking it. I grew up helping my parents care for numerous different freshwater tanks as a kid and now I am planning on...

So I have a 75 gallon tank and I put 3 assassin snails in there, but now they seem to have bloomed like crazy. They are all over the tank and glass, I mean it doesn't bother me terribly but I would like to get rid of them without causing a ammonia spike. Maybe add more assassin snails? Just...

I have a 75 gallon aquarium fully established, had it for almost 3 years with 3 bichirs, a black ghost knife, a tire track eel,a elephant nose fish and a pleco. I was wondering if I add 4 pieces of driftwood 2 large and 2 medium will it effect those fish by lowering the pH to much or any other...

Hey guys!   So I need help for stocking suggestions (those who had helped a few months ago may recognise me. I'm back again, but this time have a few measurements changed. :) )   Here is my tap water quality:    Anyway, I need some ideas on what fish I should stock. I would like a community...
