Tonight I finally picked up a couple of Dwarf Puffer Fish. Although apparently these ones are fresh water puffers, they were being kept in brackish water at Petsmart, so they're in brackish water in their new home too. When I was at another pet store a few weeks ago they had Green...

I agree with Justin, however I think the nitrite spike tends to be longer than the ammonia spike (the cases I've seen), and I'm not certain if doing regular water changes would have any influence on the time it takes for a tank to cycle. I think it takes very small amounts of NH3/4 and NO2 for the...

Is there any benefit for leaving dead plecos in an aquarium that is populated only by plecos? I'm just trying to figure out why on earth the LFS would leave the corpses in there so long that they would be almost skeletal. Like, imagine a couple of them died in their sleep, and were left to...

Hi. I am putting a hard rock maple countertop in my deli. I found what seems to be a good supplier that has good prices for unfinished 1.5" countertops. I had a couple of questions/comments if anybody cares to lend a hand. First, here are the dimensions of what I need: - 36" x 15 ft. - 36" x 5...

I have been keeping tiger barbs since 2001 when I chose some to cycle my first tank. Last night I had to put down the last one as he was very ill. Goodbye, tiger barbs! Thank you for introducing me to the hobby, for your funny little battle dances, and for your feisty spirit! (I won't be getting...

Hello fishy folks. I have a quandry that is making me both nuts and extremely sad every time they croak. I love Blue Rams. I've had them in the past. However, the last pair I just had up and died. They were gorgeous, appeared perfectly healthy and acted accordingly (I am well aware of the fact...

Does anyone know whether these contraptions actually work? Allegedly they keep the tank water very clear, and require no cleaning. Sounds too good to be true, but I am always willing to give up my doubts if enough people tell me I'm too cautious. But giving up my money (AUD 120) is something...

I am currenly still in the process of stocking my 38Gal tank and would like to add a Siamese Algae Eater / Siamese Flying Fox. But I am concerned that the 3 platy fry I have might be agressed. The fry are about 4 months old, still small but starting to school with the other platies. Should I still...

Hi all posted a picture in alt.binaries.aquaria of my collection of baby guppy fry which are feeding in my isolation net in my bristlenose tank.Enjoy

Sorry to the folks who have read the garbage that "luminos" is spewing. He is attacking me personally because I corrected his errors and cannot accept that he was wrong. Therefore, any chance he can to attack me, he does. Sometimes the poor dear even resorts to name calling. How...
