Do you know specifically what fish species you have and your specific substrate? Have you tested the water source that you are adding into the tank and see if it's that high? If so, you may want to look up RO water in…
Lighting honestly really exists for two main reasons; 1) It allows us to look inside the water and see the fish. This also helps the fish regulate their day/night cycle and hunt, find food, and avoid other fish in the…
Do you know what you are feeding them? What is the water temperature that they are within? Additionally, do you notice any other signs that they may be showing? Staying in one area completely, hiding away, not so…

My fishes are restless
Can you expand out what you mean by tired by chance? Are they staying in the same spot? Fighting to stay in the same spot by chance? Or anything else? Is the water current blowing them around the tank? If so, you may…
It might sound odd, but normally any fish species would eat them off from each other or if they aren't attached yet to a fish. Additionally, you can manually take them off using tweezers if you can get the fish to stay…
Those are some of the more common species that many can find inside of the big box retailers, but there is actually a HUGE list of aquatic plants (either fully aquatic, or semi-aquatic) that can thrive in various…
I'm not too sure that there are any that can be kept within an aquarium (yet), although with the rise of GloFish I will be generally curious if they start to move these into common amphibian breeds such as African Dwarf…
I think it really depends on their diet, how often you feed beforehand, and what species specifically they are. I've left my fish after slightly overfeeding them for a week without any issues - however, if you are gone…
Exactly, that is the main driver to getting even the slowest growing aquatic plant inside of your aquarium. Additionally, they also provide a realistic aspect inside of the tank with their real look and natural sway in…
I personally pick live plants in order to provide a more natural look and feel to the tank, providing hiding to any fish species or fry, and then to also help with making sure that the water is differed through another…
It really depends on your tank, how careful you are not to suction any fish/inverts into tote vacuum, and how big of a bucket you have (as the bigger the vacuum the more water that it processes every second).

Petco plant bulbs
Many people have had luck in just dropping them into the tank and watching to make sure that they do not rot. Others have had luck treating them as a seed and putting them into the fridge, before putting them into the…
I don't think this is accurate, African Dwarf Frogs can only live inside freshwater. Any traces of salt can clog the ducts/glands inside of their arms, which would cause them to dry out and die. There are other species…
Not all of them require it, no. Only the ones that may have specific aspects that move with air bubbles or have an airstone within them.
Yes, although they may require access to land in order to dry off, breed, etc.
Yes, they are as they require freshwater and cannot live in brackish or saltwater conditions.
I don't think that it can be a replacement for a heater since they function completely differently. For example, a chiller/cooler actually cools the water down in case it gets too hot for specific species (think mostly…

There are TONS of different brands and types of aquarium substrates that are ideal for planted tanks. Many include substrate that is naturally inert, but has been sourced with a bunch of various nutrients to make it…
There are tons of different types of substrates, but many break down into the following categories; 1) Gravel 2) Sand 3) Barebottom (so no substrate in a tank) 4) Pebbles/River rocks It really depends on what species…
