Based on previous dates, and the fact that they had a 2-month-long sale compared to normally 4-5 weeks, the new estimated date has been added.
Since a vast majority of algae tends to come when there is a chemical imbalance, and that can normally be solved with dosing the correct fertilizers to provide the balance needed, have you tried to remove algae this way…

How are thinkings going with your tank? This looks similar to how I had my shrimp tank set up when I had them in a 10-gallon. I still have the same amazon sword plant too. I just have it in the smaller tank now in a…
Tank Journals
There are a bunch, some include snails, shrimp, freshwater crabs, eels, and more.
Invertebrate
Some marketplaces include but are not limited to; LiveAquaria, AquaBid, Petco (yes you can order online to be shipped to a store or even your own home), and if you put the request in - possibly here if someone has…
Fish
I'd probably say that my favorite freshwater fish to add into any tank would be Neon Tetras. Their bright coloration, and the way that they school when afraid or shoal when they are calm just makes for a great shiny…
Fish
Makes you wonder if they are going to increase the sizes offered since they have also expanded outside of just the Aqueon tanks now. I’m sure they will, especially as you noted that they offered far more than just open…
Right now I plan on keeping them as a species-only tank since ideally, I'm looking to have them breed out. I’m not too worried about them jumping since the water parameters are good, and the lid I have on this mostly…
Tank Journals
I personally do not, since most of the fish tend to avoid being next to the heater (even my turtle does), although I would place a shield if it was in an area that fish may get trapped in (such as an enclosure, for…

I think it really depends on what you have going down that drain, and how frequently it is used. I'm sure, like anything that has to handle water, algae can form and grow over time. A perfect example of this would be a…

Looks like they started the sale earlier than we expected - it’s going on now until August 1st!
Looks like they are mixing it up again, I missed on my radar the 20% off tank sale on anything bigger than 40 gallon breeder tanks (I'll start to focus on these more often since they seem to be running a 20-30% off sale…
Terrestrial just means that they are on the land, whereas marine invertebrates tend to include those that stay within the water fully (unless you get into species like crabs or turtles which go in and out). Can you…
Invertebrate
I'd just say that making sure you have all of the equipment beforehand, works ideal. Having tubes to do water changes easier, buckets for holding everything else, and also having sponges/brushes in order to clean the…
I think the term "too much light" really can mean "lights on too long" since fish require to have a day and night cycle like humans and other species (unless you talk about species that live in pitch-black their whole…
Algae
A 30-gallon tank is a decent size for them when they are younger, although as they grow and reach their adult size, ideally you would need 120+ gallons (for a single species). If you are trying to keep multiple lion…
Fish
To be fair, it's nothing that you may be doing, but rather than poor genetics when it comes to guppies and other super popular freshwater aquarium fish. Dropsy is normally just a term for when a fish has liquid…

I think it really depends on if you want to go with all new equipment or try to get second-hand used equipment - and also how you want to set up your tank in terms of equipment style/types (ex; protein skimmer or not).…
Getting Started
Since my children have hit summer break, one of the teachers had a few of these and other fish species that they were trying to give away to the parents. I decided I'd take some of these frogs, and put them into a more…

Are you able to upload a photo by chance to make sure that what you are quoting/referencing is actually Brown Diatoms?
