I'm just waiting on the 5 new sponge filters I ordered to get here so that I can start disassembling my community/breeding tank [after I run the filters in the tank] and set up multiple breeding...

I have 2 of each from the same petsmart at the same time and I'm wondering if there really is a difference or just marketing? I can tell which is which only because the 2 marble mollies have lyre...

my plan would use alot more sand and since sand has a very high surface area in fact by volume it has more than 20x the surface area of the best bio balls. For example bio balls have 100-175 square...

I was wondering if in my standard 55 gal I devoted one end to multiple side by side Underwater [aka sand] waterfalls and built a berm to keep the sand near the waterfall would that just be a cool...

I was curious what are some of the largest of the livebearers in the aquarium trade? until recently I had thought all livebearers were small maxing out with the balloon mollys but I recently found...

The main reason for all the bottom dwellers is all the oddball predators I know of are all bottom dwellers. I think I've decided to do my albino, an ornate, a saddle along with a fire eel and then...

I'm only a few months into my addiction to fish and have been having a hard time finding good LFS where the people are knowledgeable and have a good selection of fish you wont find in the big box pet...

you should keep the thread as long as there are replies inorder to help others with similar questions

I'm starting to think the white spot may just be a spot he rubbed raw while in his "cave" also I noticed a little bit ago he is less green which may be due to him swimming around
