Feed them baby brine shrimp will help them grow a bit quicker. But i agree with you with only letting the strongest survive because you will run out of space in that tank.

There are some good photos and ideas you can grab from the above links. But just be aware using smaller plants often requires alot of work. When they are 1st planted they don't like to stay...

Cut some of your original filter media from the cycled tank and put that into the new tanks filter unit. Instant cycle. Oh and of course replace the missing bit of media with new stuff.

My Bala sharks love it. When I put the hose from the bucket in the swim straight up to it and wait for the jet and then they sit in the jet stream and swim against it. I spose it would be like...

Ill be there with bells and whistles on

If the budget can handle it you are probably better off getting a canister. Then again its not a bad idea to run 2 filtration units just in case one spits the dummy

Try a glass of boiling hot water. Dip the end of the hose into it and let it sit for a minute of so. The heat turns it soft as chewing gum and with a bit of muscle it should stretch over the...

Hi all,

Well today I went out and bought a Ehiem Pro 3e 2078 and I just thought I would give a short review on it.

Well I'll start from the beginning. When I went to pick it up for the LFS we...

I think adding drift wood lowers the hardness which will in turn lower your PH

My LFS has a pair of these about 15cm each. I don't know if i like them. If they didn't have that fin on their back they might be ok but it just sticks out of nowhere.

I was originally looking at just PH controller but for the extra money the systems which monitor and control more than one parameter were very appealing. I was originally looking at the Aqua medic...

Hi all,

Just a question about aquarium monitors / controllers. Does any one have any experience with these units? There does not seem to be much info other than what the suppliers publish.

I can't remember where i read this but put cucumber out for them at night and waiting for a few to hop on then take it out and just repeat the process.?

Try it but I'm not sure if this is just...

Keep an eye on them. If their scales pop out and they start acting funny you may have a problem.

As a new member I can slowly start to see my addiction grow. During the holiday period I have been on AC more times than I can remember. When I go out for a short while the only thing I think about...

do they actually advertise that they are wild caught? or did you guys go and grab some from a river.

frozen food to speed up the process. helps them grow a bit quicker.

love the pics.
your platy is looking a bit preggo

Doesn't the chlorine in the tap water affect your fish. Or does it not matter because the exposure time is brief?

Hi everyone.

How do you do your water changes

There has to be a better way than the way I'm doing it. I currently vacuum 50% of my gravel 240 L tank once a week and change 50% of the water...

Any snails in the tank?

yep Balloon Molly. Mollies are the strangest behaving fish I have in my tanks as well. Mine used to annoy each other all the time. I just separated them and they are fine now.

Welcome.

Love all the names. I wish I could be that creative when I name my fish.

all right heres my turn


Yes but they are in there now so its not too much of a problem



Over feeding. How did you cycle the tank? To reduce the ammonia you need to to do water changes. ...

Mollies have a taste for slime coat on other fish. My sailfin has knocked out 2 of my balloon mollies.
