This is actually quite interesting. I did know that it was probably regarding the type of water they could process but wasn't sure. It does leave it open for research though to find out how they are able to do that as…

Fake Driftwood
I have a few friends myself that use fake driftwood and they have been really happy with the quality due to it being fake. Much like the above post, my friends also add plants to the area as well so it appears less fake…
Do you have a lot of light shining on the plant? This can be what causes it to die if you do. The anubias nana plant likes to grow in the shade so that could be one cause. Hope you get to the bottom of what is happening.
Hopefully, you were able to find a way to make the bubbles smaller. Usually, pumps have a setting that allows you to adjust it so that the bubbles are how you want them to be but not all do.
This is something I would consider to save money if I knew for sure that it would be beneficial to my tank at the time. I can't say I have seen many people creating their own DIY air pump but it could be something that…

Automatic dim feature?
I myself never used to have a light that dimmed but I do have friends that have lights in their tanks and they are dimmable. They seem to be better for the fish due to it being less of a shock with a bright light…

Good brands of fish food
When I had fish, I always used to use Aquarian which seems to be one of the top brands here in the UK at the moment. I never seemed to have any issues using that brand of fish food at it always seemed to go down well as…
This is something I feel many people are not aware of when they get a fish. Fishes such as goldfish are often either bought for kids as a pet or are won at fairs and carnivals and a lot of the time, they don't always…
I have tried so many methods when I needed to catch my fish in a net and most of the different ways I tried made it a little easier but it was always still a task. I found the two-net method to be the better option…

Hiding spray bar
How do you all manage to hide the spray bar from your canister filter, so that it isn’t obnoxiously visible when you view your tank? Is there anything you try to hide it under or integrate with another decoration or…
It is quite surprising how many mistakes you can make even in the beginning when you start setting up or even having fish. Things such as too small of a tank, not ensuring the water is how it's needed to be, and adding…
If you feel you have a use for it and you feel it would be something you would like to do then I would say go for it. It's all about personal preference and if that is what you want to do.
Hey there! I saw that JustAFishServant was asking what to do with snail eggs. Well, let me tell you, crushing them is not the way to go! Snail eggs are actually pretty cool - they hatch after about 2-4 weeks and you'll…

Act Immedietely
This is very true and can not be stressed enough I do not feel. It's not always easy to tell if a fish is unwell and may have some kind of disease which runs the risk of any other fish in the tank also catching the…
From what I understand, one of the most common and popular types of algae that you can get in saltwater tanks but it can also appear in freshwater tanks as well as beard algae. Beard algae usually look red and can be…

Algae- Good or Bad?
I always remember I used to be so worried about algae in my tank and then I found out from the owner of my local pet store that algae isn't a bad thing in the tank as the fishes feed off it but if it is on the glass, it…
Anything between 70 and 80 degrees would be beneficial to the plants but it would be wise to keep an eye on the plants and also an eye on the temperature that you are using as well as most plants tend to thrive off the…
