That's what I was hoping. I've had this problem since I dismantled my FX5.
I'll grab a powerhead from work tomorrow. Thanks, guys (and gals)!

I had a fish kick the bucket today. I tested the water and ammonia, nitrate and nitrate read 0 (I did a large water change a couple of days ago). The surface of the water was covered in a cloudy...

Water parameters aside, the diet may be problematic. When mbunas consume too much protein over an extended amount of time, they can get "malawi bloat".

In my experience, Rummynose are more difficult to acclimate to a tank than other tetras. Especially if they're wild caught. If you do go the Rummynose route, make sure to drip acclimate.

I had 25 in my old tank and they looked incredible. Once they got comfortable, they gained purple-ish hue. Probably the most impressive schooler I've ever kept.

If by "Silver Gar" you mean Ctenolucius hujeta, then a 50 gallon tank is not unreasonable. According to seriouslyfish.com, C. hujeta grows to about 8 inches and requires a tank 5 feet long.

They hid when I tried to take a video. Now they're back to playing. I'm going to add some plant cover, frozen foods, and increase the WCs to see if that was some sort of mating behavior.

So I have a small colony of four adult Synodontis petricola. When I came home today two the Synos were acting oddly. They were aggressively pursuing one another. I'm used to watching them play, but...

Mine which fed primarily on two types of Hikari pellets, grew much slower than the rest of my Haps. My Nimbochromis sp. grew almost twice as large as the C. moori in the same amount of time.

If your pH is high enough, just use pool sand. I think I paid $8 per 50 lbs at a local pool supply shop.

My cousin picked up a school of galaxy rasboras about two months afo. They are very timid fish, regardless of their tank mates. They rarely venture out of cover.

I know this post is a bit outdated but I had some disappointing information to share. I discovered that the fungus doesn't just enter your tank on the back of contaminated frogs. When I added my...

Hey guys,
I settled here after looking for a more active forum. I currently attend UNLV and maintain two tanks. One 29 gallon Synodontis petricola species tank and a 100 gallon planted community....

Both fish often have trouble acclimating. I just restocked my 100 gallon with 52 captive bread cardinals and only 1 died (the tank has been running about a month). The captive breads were about a...
