How to Safely Clean a Secondhand Fish Tank or Aquarium

More than likely when you started your life as an aquarist, you bought a secondhand used fish tank. Assuming that it didn't leak or have any structural issues, are an excellent choice to start with since they're less expensive than a new tank, which allows you to buy a larger one to begin with (and get the equipment with it at a highly discouted rate).

How to Care for Your Aquarium During Power Outages

A power outage may seem like only a small inconvenience when it comes to the grand scheme of things, however, for your aquarium, it can start as a minor item but lead to a major issue that can be fatal in the end. By having a plan and knowing what critical items are required to be taken care of during an extended power outage, you can make sure that any sensitive species survive without any major damage or issues once the power has been restored.

    Post
    Okay, I gotta jump in here because y’all are seriously hyping up some solid contenders, but let’s get real—how is nobody shouting out the mad underrated Aponogeton species? Like, have you seen Aponogeton ulvaceus when it throws up those wild curly…

    Post
    Yo, totally feel you both on the UV drama—nothing like cracking open that “clean” sleeve and finding it’s turned swamp-core! 😂 That sludge blocks more rays than sunglasses at a midnight rave, so I’m all about avoiding fancy in-line UVs…

    Post
    Algae play a dual role in aquatic systems, providing both benefits and challenges depending on their type and abundance. In moderation, many forms of algae contribute positively by assisting in nutrient cycling, oxygenating the water, and serving as a…

    Post
    Hey, everyone! Love the real-world advice going on here. Just gonna say, if you’re dealing with stubborn algae, you gotta be ready to get your hands dirty… there’s just NO magic fix. People always want some chemical shortcut or crazy gadget, but…

    Post
    Infinity overflows do look ultra-modern, but honestly, they're like a fish amusement park ride with zero security if you don’t guard them! 😂 Mesh screens are a must, or get creative with DIY acrylic lips—anything to keep your little swimmers from…

    Hey boesch1, jeremysiu612,

    You're right, updated info is hard to find. From a hobbyist’s technical angle, I’d suggest keeping tabs on clubs like the Atlanta Area Aquarium Association—they often hold swaps and mini-cons. Nashville has the Music City…

    Replied to the thread What's the best specie of plants to grow in tanks?.
    Post
    If you want plants that'll basically survive anything short of a nuclear apocalypse, you can't go wrong with Java Fern or Anubias. Both are like the cockroaches of the plant world (in a good way). Plus, they don’t need fancy lights or CO2, and even a…

    Replied to the thread What do you do with snail eggs?.
    Post
    If you want to prevent more snails, the safest and most effective method is to carefully remove the egg clutch and freeze it for at least 48 hours before disposal. Crushing often leaves viable eggs behind and can get messy. If you want to hatch them,…

    Yo, this is the hot sump tea! 😝 I’ve seen those infinity-like overflows in action and, yeah, totally sexy until your most expensive guppy decides to go on a waterslide adventure! Mesh or even extra acrylic guard strips are definitely the move—no…

    Posted the thread The Importance of Amphibians in Ecosystems: Why We Should Care.
    Thread
    Okay, listen up, because these little jumpy, slippy, croaky critters are way more important than most people think! They're like nature’s alarm system—if something’s wrong in the environment, these guys are usually the first to let us know (hello,…

    Post
    Asphyx1a:

    The deployment of a prefilter sponge over a filter intake is a deceptively simple intervention with multifaceted consequences for aquatic husbandry. To reduce its function to merely safeguarding diminutive tank denizens—be they larval fish or…
