I'm like the rest of you here. The first "Balloon" fish I seen was Balloon Mollies. I couldn't believe someone would want those, and I felt so sorry for the Mollies. How could they live a normal life...

Thank you all. Your replies were very helpful.

Has anyone used all pupose fert tabs from Aquarium Plants.com? I was given a free bottle due to a delay in shipping, along with a bottle of Iron tabs. Also are the Iron tabs good to use? I have about...

Will do. Thank you.

Not to steal this thread away from the OP, but if I might ask a question about plants too. I recently purchased some Vals and some Java Ferns to add with my Amazon Swords. The Vals are very, very...

OK, I got $10.00 store credit for my Plecostomus. The clerk said he was a really nice looking Plecostomus, & just the right size to sell right now. My Golden Algae Eater they didn't want at first....

Well today I found a pet shop I hadn't been to before. I bought some plants there. Then I asked the clerk if they ever take fish in from someone and he said yes. So tomorrow I going to bring them my...

I am reconsidering the Tiger Barbs. You brought up a good point about them being fin nippers. I should have remember that.

Thanks for your reply. I think the best course of action is to get rid of the Golden Algae Eater. As far as keeping a Betta and Gourami together, I have kept a beautiful red male Betta and a Dwarf...

I have a very strange thing happening in my tank. About a week ago, I had a Dwarf Gourami completely vanish from my tank. She's no where to be found. I check in back of my tank to make sure she...

I, too, am an "old timer" at keeping fish. Back when I had my first tanks (in the 60's), I never did a water change. Just added water when it evaporated from the tank. I always used a dechlorinator,...

Fishmommie & Hardy85,
Thank you both! That makes me feel a little better. I'll try to cut down on my feeding, and see if I can get my DG to eat a bit of peas. I also heard that Daphnia wood have the...

I bought a few Dwarf and Honey Dwarf Gouramis, at different times from PetSmart, and the one thing that seems to happen to them all eventually, is their stomachs become bloated, like they have eaten...

Reef12,
How long have you had those plants? And where did youo get them from?
Your tank looks great!

Thank you so much. It's been very hard on me. Being disable and at home 24/7, Simba was always by my side. I help him be born by cleaning his sack off and cutting his cord. His Mother didn't...

What happened when he flushed?:shappy:

From what you showed it looks fantastic...I hope my 75gal will look that good one day.

Thanks LH.
I'm in the process of cleaning my canister filters this week. Had already cleaned the Eheim canister right before Simba passed. Then everything came to a halt.

mizzoutank,
I sorry I took so long to get back to you. Unfortunately, my best buddy, my cat Simba of 18 years, had to be sent to the Rainbow Bridge.
It really hit me hard and I haven't been up to...

Scotchbonneteater,
Thank you for replying about how I test my tap water. I do have about 10 Amazon Sword plants. As far as the algae scrubber, did you have visible algae on your tank walls? My tank...

Mizzoutank & Dennis,
Thank you for your replies. The only 2 questions I still have is: When I test my tap water do I add Prime to the water I'm testing? And: If I do have high Nitrates in my tap...
