I read the profile. I understand it is not compatible with what I have in my tank.

I was just asking for first hand experiences or stories. All fish don't have the same personality after all. I am...

UPDATE: If anyone cares. Day 3.

I put him in the 72 gallon with everyone else. I rearranged rocks and driftwood so everyone could claim a new territory. There's now rock caves at each end of the...

Could I home it as the only fish in a 9 gallon tall tank? I'm not sure what I will do with it. I'm sure she got it from the local pet smart but I know they will not take it back without a receipt.

A lady at my job heard I had a fish tank and took it upon herself to buy me a fish. She brought it to me in a red plastic cup. She seen a "pretty blue fish" and bought it for me. I've been able to...

Hello All! :fish: I hope this wouldn't be asking for too much, but Im back for your help. I need help with a canister filter.

I have a Eheim professional 2 Canister Filter 2026 that is currently...

Sorry 850R, I wasn't implying that YOU meant a QT should be completely empty. I just hear that that is how they are supposed to be.

Thank you for the link! not sure how I missed that sticky.

Welcome to the site! Looks like this is your first post.

It sounds like your tank is not cycled. Instructions on it should be stickied in the Beginners Corner Forum.

EDIT: Here is the link for...

The tank isn't really intended to be a quarantined tank thats why there is sand and plants in it. I was working with what I had.

But there are somethings I do not understand about a QT tank. If it...

I believe water changes are based on how stocked your tank is, filteration, and tank size. Not time elasped.

Hello I am back, to ask for your expertise. Made another mistake.

Bought a blue ram last night to complete my pair. He looked healthy and active at the store. I decided to quarentine this time. I...

*Sigh* And it never ends!! Now since I can get it for so cheap why don't I just go all pool filter sand. :11:
I'm not too attached to the black substrate it came with the aquarium and I just added...

Thats the idea im going for @j250yahweh. Nice tank! I'm just iffy on what the black and brown will start to look like once it starts to blend.

I guess it would be counter productive to use play...

Tell me about it! I put some in my 10 gal and it took 3 hours just to rinse that! But i'm on a budget (my boyfreind still can't believe I paid for "wood" lol) and I already have it so that's what Im...

Does anyone have any experience or pictures of people mixing different color substrates??

The reason I ask is because I just got 3 yo yo loaches and I have black eco-complete substrate which is...

AHAHAHAHAH!! Maybe even a gyrados!? :hmm3grin2orange:

Just bought 3 yo-yo loaches (Will be getting 3 more soon thumbs2: ) .
Now I know they like to burrow and I have black Eco-complete substrate. Which to me is kinda sharp so I want to make them a...

I'm curious about this too my Red tail shark (sometimes sold as a rainbow shark) does the same exact thing. I will catch him sucking on the side of the tank or upside down sucking on rocks in his...

I finally found a home for my plant murdering poop-factory! My common pleco will have a new home at the LFS tomorrow.

I was playing around on aqadvisor.com and my pleco takes up 300% of my...

Okay, so I identified it as pop-eye. It says its usually enviormental. I think it might be from an injury since it is only in one eye.(TBs fight with each other). I didnt have a chance to check the...

Trouble in tank!!! Fish is definitely sick. Came home on my lunch break and seen a green tiger barb had a mutant eye.

He's now in a QT but i don't know how much longer he will last. Everyone else...

The water parameters have been the same for the past 3 weeks. No fluctuation. 0 ammonia. 0 nitrites. This is after cycling with fish for 4 weeks, and using used media filter to help speed things up a...

*sigh* I definetely didn't need a sensitive fish. But I am willing to do what it takes to keep this guy happy and healthy.

Stock:
6 Green Tiger Barbs
5 Tiger Barbs (regular)

I must confess I had an impulse buy. I had to go to a store next door to Pet Smart so of course I had to stop in just to look.

I walked out with 5 baby tiger barbs and a blue ram.

So far I can...

I'm having problems with a common pleco myself right now, currently looking for a new home him since his new favorite past time is thrashing all the new plants in the tank with his tail.
