    Hey guys,

    I was reading Benji's post about Amazon Frogbit and I gotta say, I agree with him! Frogbit is such a cool plant to have in your aquarium. Not only does it absorb nitrates like a boss, but it also provides a sweet hiding spot for all your fishy…

    Hey there!

    I saw that JustAFishServant was asking what to do with snail eggs. Well, let me tell you, crushing them is not the way to go!

    Snail eggs are actually pretty cool - they hatch after about 2-4 weeks and you'll have a bunch of tiny snails wriggling…

    I agree with Shortie that goldfish can be difficult to keep alive. They are often seen as a beginner's fish due to their popularity and low cost, but they actually require a lot of care. One issue is that they produce a lot of waste, which can quickly…

    laurent.ba Thanks for sharing this information. Overfeeding can cause a lot of problems for our little fishy friends. It's important to pay attention to the signs and adjust our feeding accordingly.

    Shortie I totally agree with you. It's easy to…

    Post
    I have never had any cory catfish and have always gone for goldfish for any tanks that I have had. It is very true that goldfish are the worst for leaving a lot of mess and that can sometimes make it harder for you as a tank owner to keep the tank clean.

    I will admit that I have seen rainbow fish and I love the colors on them and they are amazing to look at and see but I have never had any rainbow fish, it has always been goldfish.

    This is quite interesting and something I was unaware of. It has always been different to tell the difference between a livebearer that may be bloated or pregnant. I actually find it quite fascinating that if they are see-through you would be able to see…

    After some of the stories I have heard about not wearing gloves when you work in your reef aquarium, I would now always wear gloves no matter what.

    To be fair, I feel I would always wear gloves no matter what kind of tank it was due to possible diseases…

    I always remember asking a pet shop this as I was curious and they told me that they are either caught from their natural surroundings or habitat and then sold to pet shops by those who take them from there and I was also told that they are also bred in…

    Replied to the thread Do fish recognize their owner?.
    Post
    I always remember being a kid, I was always told that fish had a 3-second memory span so I instantly believed that they would probably never remember you as their owner because of that.

    Is it true though that is the case or do they remember us and can we…

    Post
    There are a few different types of food you can feed clownfish from what I remember.

    Shrimp, cooked mussels, vegetables, brine, bloodworms, and table shrimp are all ideal for clownfish to eat.

    Post
    When it comes to fish health, ensuring they have a good diet and also ensuring that they have good a good living area as well as their water being healthy for them to live in are two ways you can prevent fish from getting disease.

    Of course, you will…

    Replied to the thread Are parasites common in fish?.
    Post
    I can't say I often see parasites in fish to be honest so I wouldn't say that they are common but I would say that it is something that can happen.

    It is quite shocking though that you noticed one in the pet store and even though you told them, the fish…

    Post
    This sounds like stress that your fish are going through and this can happen due to either high ammonia, high nitrate levels, and also high or low PH levels.

    Diseases could also be a main factor in them being stressed as well. You need to take a look at…

    It is always awful when you end up with sick fish and in some cases, no matter what you do, you never seem to be able to prevent it which can be frustrating as well.

    Ensuring that you keep your fish clean and stick to a routine of when you clean will help…
