Just thought I’d let everyone know, to make sure what you buy you need. With COVID-19 getting the new mutation, it seems like stores are starting to refuse returns for the time being again until an unknown time (Petco…
Been using ones that basically clamp onto the tank itself (doesn’t actually rest of the tank glass - but clamps onto the rim/trim). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I 100% always plan any layout I’m doing. From where the rocks are going, what type of substrate and where, to even specifics on hiding spots or the requirements for the fish or invertebrates that I’m going to keep. Sent…
Honestly they are pretty sweet, especially if you are growing plants or sensitive fish that need a slow change from dark to light, and light to dark. Otherwise using a timer can work if you have multiple lights set to…

Have you ever had your fish get stuck in a decoration?
I think I’ve seen a ton of fish that get stuck either in decorations or even behind them or behind filters. Have you ever had this happen to you before and if so how did you fix it so that it can’t happen again? Sent…
I probably do 25% every week or so. Just always have ironically on all of my tanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I’ve heard that it should start tomorrow, but nothing official yet. We’ll see though since everyone on Facebook loves to just point out random dates. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Do you buy normal shaped tanks, or those oddball ones?
I’ve seen a ton of new tank manufacturers start to make more oddball tank shapes (such as bringing back to wave tanks on one side, or even having hexagon tanks). Do you have any tanks that aren’t the traditional…

Do you run CO2 in your planted tanks?
With the ability to have CO2 from either a canister you refill or a DIY method of producing it, do you run this into your tanks or just let the plants consume whatever they can naturally/normally? Sent from my iPhone…
I wish that someone could share those images from the official Petsmart and Petco accounts. Maybe one day these fish will have their correct conditions to live as other tropical fish (heaters, filters, etc.). Sent from…
Most easy trait even when young is that they have claws on their arms (ACF) where as ADF just have claws on their feet. Their eyes are also on different positions, ADF have their eyes on the side and ACF have their eyes…
Depends on if you have a filter that is mixing water around or not - if not, I would. However I’d also recommend on getting a few more to bump that number up to 7-10 so that they won’t act so skittish and be hiding due…
Do you know what type of algae it is? You can always try to capture the female (she will suck all of the fry up in a sense of danger) and place her into a smaller tank or somewhere while you clean everything else. Then…

How do you add more fertilizers?
Once your original bunch of fertilizers are depleted, how do you dose more of them into the tank? Do you just push root tabs into the substrate, go liquid only, or something else? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What worm is this?
Kind of looking like a earthworm or another type that is used for feeding marine fish. Do you feed any types of worms at all? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Do you know what color the algae is? Is the tank newly setup and how long ago? Also what types of lights are you using? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Black Friday Hauls
Not bad! I actually picked up a 75 gallon Marineland tank combo kit for half off. I think that they are replacing them with a new design so can’t complain at all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I wonder if they will go even further down in price for their Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I normally buy them in store since I’ve had a few delivered and they always manage to either end up chipped, cracked, or the rim is damaged which is an annoyance to have to look at or hide. Sent from my iPhone using…

Rapid breathing fish
Any other obvious things going on with them? Have you tried to increase the amount of surface moment since dependent on how stocked the tank is, it may be a lack of oxygen if all of them are doing it. Sent from my…
