The Cory's are probably my favorite fish in the whole tank. I would have to re-home the pictus and SAE's like you said before getting any more. I hear what you're saying about the barbs, but I...

I do agree that the bottom of my tank has reached it's limit. Although the most I have of any one type is the 3 Cory's, I'm definitely not looking for any more. They are kept fat and happy with a...

I just bought a blue balloon ram the other day (or a deformed GBR as I later found out).

I would like to add one or two more rams to my tank to make it complete. I know that they are...

Ahhh. Thanks Kingfisher. After further research I see what you mean. Well, I guess we'll see how he holds up. I do like the 'Ram' family so maybe my next addition will be a Bolivian or a...

Also - forgot to ask - Does anyone know how big these guys get? I see info that says anywhere between 5 cm and 4 inches. Wondering if anyone has any personal experience with them.

What sort of genetic defect does it have other than being a little rounded? The belly really isn't ballooned. The LFS called it an Angel Ram, but when I looked it up online, the pictures of the...

I just bought a balloon blue ram last night. I think they look really cool. The colors in the LFS were amazing, but he wasn't as bright last night in my tank. The front of his dorsal fin has a...

Well, I invested in a two bulb T5HO fixture. I have one 10,000K and one 6,500K 54W each. It's only been a few days, but the Christmas moss I put in there the day I changed the lighting looks great....

Thanks 850R - Based on that pic I think I'll keep the 10,000K and grab a 6,700K. I can only hope my tank will look that green! If I see the algae pick up I can always downgrade the 10,000K or get...

Well, I went to the LFS and bought an upgrade. A 48" Solarmax H.O. High Output double T5 Lighting System. It has one T5 54W 10,000K Daylight lamp and one T5 Actinic-03 Lamp, and 8 Moonlight LED's. ...

Yeah, it looks like I need an upgrade. Ironically, I just remembered today what I have had in my closet for 7 years and have been trying to sell on Craigslist every once in a while. Don't ask how -...

I just looked at the bulbs. They are 18" Aqueon Full Spectrum 15 watt T8. Any good?

Yeah, i know. I'll have to look tonight. I suspect they are just your basic run of the mill fluorescent bulb.

I'm sorry but I don't have any info about my bulbs. I can look tonight when I'm home, but this is the kit I bought - the 55g one:

I currently have a standard 55g tank with two 24" single bulb light fixtures on it. They are the standard fluorescent bulbs that came with the tank. I have a few plants:

Amazon swords
Anubias...

Well, I have to admit that that particular quote passed by me, and I do agree with what you're saying. Ignorance and laziness are two distinctly different things. In my defense, even before that...

I have to come to the defense of Tyler for a minute here. As a newbie I fully understand what he is going through and yet I fully understand what the veterans here are too. Just my two cents and a...

Looking to increase my green in my 55g, and I really like the look of mosses. I have a little java moss growing and I ordered some Christmas moss which is on the way. I was looking at pellia. Any...

Since you're in NJ, check out this store: http://www.absolutelyfish.com/

They're in Clifton. Not sure where Red bank is, but Clifton is central NJ-ish, not far from Manhattan. Best fish store I...

I'm sorry, we just sold our last 'lightning in a bottle'. However, for a few extra bucks you may want to consider our 'lightning in a jar'.

So we're talking about running the water through the filter without any media at all in it just long enough to make sure all of the water has gone through it at least once? Is this just to aerate...

I bought a piece a month or so ago. I soaked it for about a week in a bucket, changing the water daily. I then boiled it for about 2 hours, slowing changing the water by removing some and then...

Yeah, I have to agree with the last two posts. Like I mentioned, the Danios all seem to hang together, so what was said makes perfect sense. The Gold barbs usually cluster by the driftwood when...

'I am TOTALLY going to land on that hot dog cart. YES!"

The water flow is still good despite all the stuff I jammed in there. It's not going to the overflow at all. It seems to be working great actually. A couple of days after I did it, my nitrates...
