fluval

Just saying hi and introducing myself.   My name is Jen and I just purchased a little fluval edge 6 gallon with a couple live plants and a nice piece of driftwood.   A cute little assassin snail must have stowed away in a plant because he's the sole inhabiter of my little aquarium.   I'm cycling...

I Just cleaned out my 6 gallon fluval chi, and I need suggestions for plants! I have 2 mystery fish andI'm getting 2 adf's! (african dwarf frogs) I need suggestions for the tank and also help with syncing a new light switch! HELP    (i will try and post a picture of the mystery fish so u guys...

I have recently invested in a fluval edge 46l tank. Right now it has 2 plants in but I will be adding more. While the tank was preparing to be stocked I was won spidering what I could put in it. I would love a small fish shoal with neon tetras in or maybe mountain cloud minnows but would also...

Hi guys, i've bought the new fluval edge 12g/46l and im really not sure what to stock it with. I was thinking some guppies with endlers and cardinals maybe? I know it a small tank you dont have to tell me that. Its all cycled and all the tests have been done. Thanks :)

Will changing the filter pad cause an ammonia spike or are most of the benefial bacteria in the c nodes (i have a fluval c3 filter), should i replace it or just rinse it out a bit in declorinated water?

Hi all,    I had some problems with my HOB filter but then with help from people on this forum, I was able to fix it. (Thank you!)   Then, my Fluval 305 canister filter started leaking! It caused some floor/ basement ceiling damage and now we have to do some re-drywalling. I do not want to go...

Hey all, I have a 8 gallon fluval tank with a breeding pair of fancy guppies (2 standard females, 1 cobra male) and a golden snail. I saved 6 fry (3 from each female's drop) in a mesh breeders box type thing in the tank and they have been growing beautifully!    I'm an out-of-state college...

Hey everyone, I'm a full time college student with an 8 gal Fluval edge tank with some Amazon Sword plants, a breeder pair of fancy guppies (2 female 1 male) and a golden snail. So far, both of my females have given birth once, and I have saved 6 fry in a separate, small bowl to raise until they...

Awhile ago I had the mist of air bubbles constantly coming out of my fluval fx5. Read info on what it is and came up with the result that the small tube in the lid some-how creates bubbles? (not a clue) The new fx6 doesn't have this small tube and if you ask nicely fluval will send you a new lid...

I have a 20g all in one Blue Planet tank which was cycling hut then the filter died. Rather then get it replaced with the same poor model, I decided to get the Fluval U3 internal since canisters are out of my budget and there's no room for a HOB! The two things I was wondering are, can I keep...

Hey everyone! Get ready for a wall of text and a fair few questions.     I am in my final year of college, and keeping a fish as a pet is kind of a tradition here. So last January, armed with good intentions and very little knowledge, I picked up a little red betta I named Jarvis. For the last...

Hi all,   I've just moved from a 50 litre tank to a 200 litre which is currently cycling.   I'm hoping to create a well planted community tank filled with small schools of small fish.   Plants so far: Egeria Densa Green Cabomba Bacopa Monnieri Dwarf Sagittara   Fish so far: 1 x Female...

Has anyone had any issues with fluval filters? I have a U2 in my 64L fry tank. I do water changes twice a day in that tank. I unplug the filter, do the water change, plug it back in-nothing. Take the plug out, put it back in-nothing. I do this about 3 or 4 times and then it kicks in again and...

So I was talking about it the other day, and ordered some of the SMD5050 LED light modules, and although they are no where near the high powered LED lights, they are a good DIY light that seem to run at fairly low heat, will grow low light plants very easily, and are great mostly for aesthetics...

Hi guys, I'm still a fish noob however, I'm really into fish keeping now, and I want to advance myself into live plants, sorry but I have quite a few questions... This is what iv ordered...

Has anyone got a Fluval Roma 90? Are they good? Iv been looking for a 2nd tank for a while and I'm short on space, was looking at the small edge but with the hatch on top it's too tall for the space I had planned to fill... So instead I looked where else I could have a tank, as I was looking...

So with Pets at Home having a 20% off all tanks this Friday - Monday, and I already get 20% off.. I thought I'd get another tank while I could so I've ordered the Fluval Roma 200 which is the biggest one they do.   The question is, if I were to put my 6 Clown Loaches (tiny) into it, would I be...

I just bought 5 harlequin rasbora for my new aquarium 3 days ago at petco. They seemed happy and were very active, and ate well. Two died today. The first to die had two tiny white specs on his fins, so I thought it might be ick and immediately started introducing a low concentration of aquarium...

Just picked up the Fluval FX6 for £190 instead of the normal price of £299.99.   Obviously super chuffed and happy as it's still sealed and brand new.   But what are your opinions on Fluval and what would be your filtration of choice?   Favourite brand and model?

Good evening! So I did not want to make a bajillion topics, so I thought I would list all of my questions (for the time being) here.   Food: I feed my tanks twice a day, morning and night. It'll consist of a rotation between Tetra Pro Energy flake, Frozen Bloodworm, Frozen Discus Mix (Spinach...

So I'm looking for a new internal filter for my 80L tank, and wanted some advice. I've heard that although fluvals are cheap and cheerful they are crap (not my words!) and to go for a juwel even though they're a bit pricier.   At the moment I have an aqua vital filter, which I haven't had any...

I am looking at a new filter for my 50 US Gal tank (48" x 12" x 20").  I have sand substrate and will have some planted plants.  I plan on mainly stocking with 2-3" fish that like to school like cherry barbs, tiger barbs, zebra danios, tetras, etc.   I have no idea where to start but the forum...

Hi all, After about six weeks, the nitrogen cycle has completed in my 10 gallon tank!  I have charted the progress over time on a google spread sheet and I have made a nice little graph that shows what happened.  It took about 6 weeks to cycle.  Hopefully, any beginners like me can look at the...

Hi everyone, needing some help with a tank that was given to me by a friend who had it in storage, it's a Fluval Roma 200 tank, along with a fluval 105 ext filter & the Original int. filter the 200 comes with. I'm really wanting to get it up and running in my dining room, BUT... I don't have a...

I cleaned my tank out yesterday, mainly because the filter wasn't working right so I decided to do it all. The motor had died, so I had to go out and buy a new one, so I bought the same kind, a Fluval U2 as it was a good filter, easy to clean and quiet, as the tank is in my bedroom so I needed a...
