If the designer was well known, had a really good warranty, and did solid work, then yes I’d definitely pay more than average for that same tank. But for a generic tank or something like that, I would not since it can…
I think mine was either Anacharis or possibly Java Fern since those are the two most common ones sold at any aquarium store. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I do not since all of the gas exchange occurs with my filters that I have either point it upwards or some type of wave being created on the surface of the water. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
No, as hot glue will slowly dissolve into pieces that can harm fish if swallowed, or if it gets stuck in their grills or digestive system (as glue isn’t digestible). Try using silicone, fishing line, or even super glue…
Honestly any fish that isn’t of the same family or type. For example people love to put Angelfish and Neon Tetras, but in the wild the neons are food for the angels. Similarly people mix in cichlids from different lakes…
Don’t they have those all in one test kits for both freshwater or saltwater tanks? I know what they do not contain super specific testing aspects but would give you the best bang for the buck according what API sells…
I normally fed like every other day, and do it near the morning after I wake up so that it gives them that little bit of energy through the day. I’ve never thought about when it what time of feeding then makes sense or…
I always see clownfish being highly recommend to those starting out, since they tend to be unforgiving when it comes to water parameters not being specifically in like with where they should be. Sent from my iPhone…

Good heater brands?
I normally stick with Aqueon, Eheim, or Jager since they tend to have better reliability than other brands. I specifically stay away from unknown brands (where I’d love to buy a filter from a random brand name), and…
Thank you a freaking TON for fixing the Tapatalk problem! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
What many that I know do is that they will put food on a plate in the middle of the tank to allow for them to eat easier as they could spot the difference from a white plate vs. any color which would be a food source.…

what is this? HELP
Whatever you do, treat the whole tank and don’t remove fish or decorations. You can see it’s already infecting other fish (the one behind the main one that you took a photo of). Give it 2 weeks atleast or treatment and…

Has anyone used algaefix?
If you have used this with fish in the tank, did you find it useful at all or did it end up making things worse (including killing any fish)? I’m finding heavily mixed results online and wanted some personal experiences…
Honestly, very rarely. I maybe do a 10-20% change once a month dependent on what is going on in that tank. For saltwater related setups I tend to do them more often like weekly or bi-weekly dependent on the tank size…
You want to look for their bottom fin. If it’s shaped like a normal fin (triangle shape), it’s a female. If it looks like a tube, it’s a male. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What is your go to treatments for when you get new fish?
I see a TON of people saying that they give any new fish a round of treatments to make sure they don’t bring over any parasites, worms, possible Ich, or other various annoying diseases. What do you all use for a general…

Has anyone seen any red/blue shrimp at Petsmart yet?
I’ve seen the labels for the cherry red and blue velvet shrimp yet? I keep asking at my local stores and they say “it’s coming” but it’s legit been almost over a year since they replaced the tank that had fire belly…
I think that tannins look really good for those dark water tanks and if you do some type of natural effect with the natural species that live there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sweet, thank you! Was a pain in the ass, but finally got the haze gone along with that god awful gravel it came with. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
