I would add that we recently sent in an order online to BigAl's and ordered that light, a master test kit (can't complain at about $16 instead of $50 or so at PetSmart!!), and a whole bunch of other...

Well, I just wanted to post here and let you all know why there won't be any more updates on the GBR fry. Yesterday evening we got home to find one fry left in the tank with the father. ...

Thanks, everyone, for all of your help. Hopefully we can nip this outbreak in the bud and not have it turn in to a moderate to severe infestation. DH is at home right now dealing with it, giving...

We found some stuff called Ich Attack so we bought it - haven't started using it yet though. It's the only thing we found that wouldn't stain the tank. The active ingredient is "naphthoquinone". ...

OK - I need to find out then the best way to use salt to medicate. Have never done that before.

Well, we don't want to use salt with our catfish, though. DH would rather medicate than do THAT - but salt is really dangerous with catfish, isn't it??

Is Ick Guard II available at like PetSmart...

Well - it's finally happened. After having the occasional fish needing quarantined and then everything turning out OK several times - our 36 gal. freshwater community tank now has Ich. ...

Hey! Welcome to the AC forum!! You've certainly fell on your feet here......don't ever be afraid to look for or ask for help on here......there are SO many active, experienced aquarists on here...

Wow......I'm sorry for your snail problem - that's no fun at all! I'm always very wary of buying live plants from fish stores because we're worried about getting a snail infestation - although our...

Hey Dave et. al.,

Just a little update - Newt went home yesterday, so she's back in with Bupu, our other Dwarf Puffer, in the original 10gal. tank. We had no problems doing the water change,...
