Greetings to you all, I have been lurking for the best part of two weeks now and have really enjoyed reading all the posts, replys and suggestions. I am a "newbie" in more ways than one. 1) I recently returned to the hobby of keeping tropical fish. I used to keep guppys, mollies and the like when I...

I have a 55 gal, lightly planted community tank with no CO2 or fertilizer (yet), 2 HOT power filters together rated for over 100 gal tank filtration, that has been up and running for about 6 months now. Just recently I've begun to notice a slight cloudiness in the water, almost looks like very fine...

Hi, I just today noticed a little translucent worm wriggling around in my tank. It was about 3 mm long and thin. Spotting another a few minutes later, I decided to take a look in my corner filter (not cleaned for a couple of weeks). Found plenty of worms inside the floss. They stay still...

Now that my work is finally done (read on), let's have some fun - here's mine: We came home from 10 days in Florida on the 29th of December to find a smallish damp spot on the carpet - the spot was by a high-traffic area and kinda near the 135-gallon aquarium I keep a red-eared slider in. Of...

Can anyone point me to an online store where i can get: 1 - 24"L x 4"W striplight fixture (either 2x20w T8 or 1x 36-50w CF) 1- 34 5/8"L x 4 1/2"W striplight fixture ( 1x55/65w CF) I've really tried searching for 2 days on the web and have only found retrofits or too-wide fixtures. I've got some...

Hi all, I'm having a heck of a time finding lights for my two tanks. I've got a 29gal long (with only a single 20w bulb) and a 20gal high (with only a 15w), both T8. The 20gal is new, just put plants in it (wish i had read more first!) and the 29gal has been going for about 2 years. I've been...

My daughter got a 5 gallon tank kit for the holidays. We have an African Dwarf Frog and a small tetra in the tank. We'd like to get another frog and perhaps 1-2 more fish. How many fish can safely live in a 5 gallon tank? Would a ctfish be a good idea (to help keep the tank clean)? Thanks in...

Though I'm a beginner I want to learn as much as I can as well as get some good deals on my new tank and equipment. Can someone please help me connect with a good local fish store in San Diego? How about a source for good used tanks? I'm thinking 72 gal or so. The last thing I want to do is torture...

Hello, I currently live in Phoenix, AZ and I was wondering if anyone had any advice about stores locally that have friendly service, knowledge, and good prices. Please let me know if anyone has had any good experiences here in the area. Or if you are looking to sell an old tank, I would be...

I recently purchased a Visi-therm Deluxe heater. I had no problems with initial installation and adjustment (dry). Now a couple of days later I wanted to adjust the temperature slightly. The heater has a cone shaped knob with ridges, but I find it is impossible to turn with one hand while under...

Over the past week, I have set up a new 200L tank. Everything in the new tank is new, except that I re-used my Eheim cannister filter. Because of an algae problem in the previous aquarium, I cleaned the filter with vineger, and it contents by leaving them in the sun for a couple of days. I used a...
