upgrade

Hi all! New to the site here, and keeping big fish in general and want some opinions. I’m going to be moving soon and will be capitalizing on it to do a necessary upgrade from a 55 gallon to hopefully a 90-125 gallon tank. Issue is I’m moving to a 3rd floor apartment. The fish I have right now...

Right now I have just setup a 225 gallon aquarium and moved my fish from a 100 gallon. What is the minimum water change schedule? and optimal? (being still 50%?) Previously I was changing 50% every week, and the old parameters were - pH 7.8 - Ammonia 0, Nitrite 0 - Nitrate 10 - 30 Aquarium...

I plan on upgrading to a 180 gallon 100% forsure so my leopard ctenopoma can "roam" when I move out of my parent's home but school is taking me 3 more years to complete. I feel a little guilty keeping the leopard ctenopoma in a 40 breeder for 3 more years. Do you guys think it's okay since they...

Hey all. I've been driving myself nuts thinking about it. I want to upgrade my 90 gallon to something around 6-7' long and the fiance agrees that he wants something shiny. I would prefer an acrylic tank so we don't have to pay people to help move a heavy glass thing. We just barely were able to...

This documents the process I went through to upgrade my main display tank (african cichlids) from a 125 gallon to a 220.

Hi, I currently have a 70 gallon tank, that my husband is going to let me upgrade to a 125 gallon (possibly bigger) for Christmas. I know this is months away, but want to make sure we plan this out right. The current tank is set in the wall viewable from living room (access to clean and feed is...
