I have 5 honey gouramis in a 50 gal/ 190 liters, 2 males and 3 females.  They all do great together, the larger males was a little aggressive recently as they were just breeding (I have little fry hatching in another tank as we speak) but most of the time they all get along great!  I also have 9...

I did look at Velvet, it is ich almost 99.9% sure.    I will try to take photos but they are really small spots....   We pulled the tetras out and put in a hospital tank, dosed them with meds. Also did a 60% water change on the main tank, have been slowly increasing the temp up.  Hopefully the...

I have an outbreak of Ich and I am not sure how to treat the tank that has too many & too small of shrimp & snails to move.  Tank size: 50 gallons pH: 7.2 ammonia: 0 ppm nitrite: 0 ppm nitrate: 5-10 ppm gH: 4 degrees tank temp: 75 F Fish Symptoms: Black neon tetras have white spots on fins and...

Would there be an issue with the peacock gobies going after the shrimp since they prefer live/ frozen foods?  I rather like having shrimp and don't want them to be added to the fish dinner menu. Edit:  Did some more research, looks like they gobies will eat my shrimp.  Guess they are off the...

That is something to keep in mind since the tetras are fairly aggressive during feedings, as are the gouramis. Are the peacocks ok in a group, such as 4 or 6? And are they best kept as pairs (m & f) or does it matter?

I have a 50 gal freshwater planted.  Currently stocked with: 4 honey sunset gourami 9 black neon tetra Cherry shrimp and blue velvet shrimp Malaysian Trumpet Snails   Would these additions be compatible? 6 celestial pearl danio 2-4 peacock gobys   According to aqadvisor, I'm ok with my PH and...

Maybe some cories since the hatchets stay right at the top all the time, you'll need some fish that like the bottom and then a mid-level fish too.

He is in England, I'm in the US.  Products might not be the same here and there.  I will send him a PM though.

Hey there, I am wanting to upgrade my lighting for my 50 gal freshwater. It is 48" x 12" x 20".   I have looked at tons of different already made setups but am overwhelmed by the number of choices out there. I have read articles on the differences between T8, T5, T2, and LED but am so confused...

Yeah, it was real quick. Took some scissors and did a quick trim and replant. Took like 3 minutes total, most of that was because I was moving slow to keep from scaring the fish and from making a big wet mess on the floor! Oh and I had too many peanuts telling me where the cuttings should be...

To add to the list of plants, here are some plants that I have, they do well in my low-moderate light tank: Water sprite (ceratopteris thalictrodes) Water wisteria (Hygrophila difformis) Purple Cabomba (cabomba plcherrima) Those three grow really fast so it takes some maintenance to keep them...

Would that work for my son too? J/k...

I have snails in my tank on purpose to help with algae and detritus.  Lots of people don't like them though.  They are fine with me but if you want to get rid of them w/o getting assassin snails you could put some lettuce in a small plastic soda bottle with a hole in the lid (big enough for the...

I have 4 honey sunset gouramis, they tend to schoal together and wander all over.  They are little pigs though, they will eat anything and everything (including my shrimp).  They haven't ate any plants yet, they just pick at them at the algae.

Was just there last week, they have TONS of plants!  They also ship.
