Hey guys! I've been pretty absent from the forum lately, life's been a little crazy. I live in the desert southwest and we have some desert sage that has a very cool look to it. I was wondering if...

leopard are pretty fragile in the first few weeks from my experience. I never had luck with them in either of two times i got them and that was in 2 different states. they're one of my favorite...

thanks for the links. The only problem is that most of those plants on the list can only tolerate up to 1.012 SG from what I've read on a few sites and the owner of the shrimp keeps them at a SG...

So I'm going to be starting up a brackish water tank as a little leap to the full saltwater experience. I will be doing a 3 gallon with opae ula due to their amazing surviving abilities. I figure...

Hello,
So for my newest tank I was thinking of setting up a little 3 gallon tank for some opae-ula. I figured I would give them a brackish tank since they breed better in these habitats and it...

So ive been reading online and i think im more confused than ever. I bought some silicone ll premuin waterproof silicone for window/door/attic/basement by GE. ive been reading online that GE with...

Yep it will be fine. I have pygmy cories in my fluval and I keep the water level lower for them.

No problem, I always like helping. If I remember correctly, it took ours....10 days to waterlog? Honestly, just wait until it sinks and stays sunk lol. It usually takes about 2 weeks or so. :)

Oh man everytime I walk into these two stores in my area I always hate myself for not getting some fish. let's see some of the more recent ones are:

Lamprologus ocellatus: these guys were stunning...

Sorry about the typos in the last post... my phone auto corrects and a lot of times it put the wrong word lol....

That's a pretty nice piece. I would put it in a storage tub with some hot water...

Pine is a soft wood and will rot faster than a hard wood. The general rule is if you can dig your fingernail into it, it's a softwood and not best for use in a tank. I've put soft wood in one of my...

Definitely no to the rams. They will not like your betta and in a worse case scenario they will rip his fins to shreds or worse. Both of these fish are territorial and even though they don't live in...

Bosman hit it right on the nose. Acllimation of sensitive fish or fish shipped to you should at least take 45 minutes using drip acclimation. Temperature is actually the least harmful water shock to...

A fellow las vegan here. the one store that had really good driftwood closed down. I would try either f.I.s.h. on Bruce and Charleston(amazing store, bad neighborhood but the best store in town I've...

yea but remember that ammonia is powerful so only add like a few drops at a time.

aw man lucky. wish i lived in an area that had an active fish club, those guys are pretty cool.

Stability is a different thing. Stability helps along the cycle but only if you are cycling with fish. To get ammonia (you have to make sure it has no soap or additives otherwise it's no good) at...

Fist off, a huuuuge thanks are in order for doing some research! I tend to find that a little research can go a long way. The way you are planning on cycling can be a bit messy. I would actually...

Reading the book is a great tool because it gives you a lot of great information. I know when I first started out it was the best tool I had, next to my fish fanatic roommate.:) That's all smug was...

Putting that many fish in a tank at once causes an extreme build up of toxin from the waste and uneatten food. Those toxins cause the fish to get sick and if exposed for too long they will die from...

very beautiful pearl! I really think they're one of my favorites. Wish I lived closer to you, i would take some cherries off your hands ^_~

Aquabid.com would be your best bet. I tend to find that there being sold quite often on there. Not super common, but there are a few sellers that have them on there. Have you asked some of your local...

8.0 is a pretty high ph, while it is a concern, do remember that a good amount of stores use the tap water of your area in their tanks as well. Running RO water through several tanks can get very...

haha yea don't worry everyone I will definitely make sure i can have a tank/ there's enough room of the tank first. Don't worry I'm not going to impulsive on this tank ;). I was just asking this ...

Kurly, on the more common of the baby whale species, the electrical pulse they send out is so minimal it can not harm you at all, it can't harm other fish or worms either if I remember correctly....
