planted

Hello, I just bought 5 juvie angels to be the centerpiece for my 55 gal tank and I want a boss fish to keep them in line. I have had angels before, and like them, but I don't like their attitude. I suspect that they mat stress out my other fish, and I just don't like the way they behave. I was...

First off, I have been researching my favorite fish. Every time I have a question about Bichirs, Google has turned me to this forum (literally every time lol). So I figured Why not join? I use the term paludarium loosely. Idealy I am looking to get an Aqueon 210. The top 5-7 inches or so will...

I'm planning on planting a carpet of Dwarf Hairgrass in my Pickerel's tank. I'm a beginner when in comes to plants and have never carpeted my tank floor. The tank only holds my 2 10 inch Pickerel. My Filtration does a great job of keeping their water prestine. The issue is that they are larger...

I tried to leave a small bottom portion of the leaf that rotted away and the leaf did not regrow, the stem just rotted away as well. Should I cut in the middle of the stem next time?

I have a planted tank. Thought of adding a pair of rainbow cichlids and many sites confirm them being plant-safe. So, I added them and then came plant stems floating here and there. They're very well fed by the way. What gives? What are your experiences with them and your planted tanks? For now...

I was wondering what exactly does a healthy, comfortable fish look like and do? Like what are some of the more common trait's based off of years of fishkeeping from members here: Color, size, maybe aggression, activity levels, natural behavior? I don't think or know of scientific proof that...

Hey guys, just thought I'd start a fun thread where you guys can share pictures of your low tech tanks. Whether it be planted or not, tell me about it and post pictures please. The picture I've posted is my low tech planted 125, no CO2 or ferts of any kind. Very happy how this tank has turned...

Can t8s from Home Depot grow HC, if so how many do I need for a carpet on a 10 gallon?

Hey guys its been awhile, but i just bought a new 10 gallon that will fit perfectly in my room. So question is how should i stock it? I want to have live plants in the gravel, maybe have moss up one side of the tank. For fish i was thinking of 1 Male betta along with a few ottos, and maybe a few...
