I am completely aware of what size clown loaches can grow to. I adopted them from someone who was moving and giving away all their fish, and my tank is a temporary home until they can be moved to my cousin's much larger tank with his much larger clown loaches. As they are barely 1.5 inches at...

The tank's 25 gallons, 80 degrees, and in the tank there are platys, corys, 2 clown loaches, and neon and rummynose tetras. Stats are 0 for ammonia and nitrite, and 20 ppm for nitrates, the tank's filtered and I do water changes once a week. I feed flakes once a day, occasionally frozen...

Hi Everyone I adopted an ADF from a friend a few months ago, I have no idea how old he is. About 2 weeks ago, I noticed that he was spending more and more time floating at the top of the tank. I wasn't too worried, but now it seems like he's stuck up there! There are no signs of bloat, he's not...

This looks great.. might just solve my problem! I've never been able to find one like this that would fit my filter. Thanks a bunch :)

It's alright! I don't use tap water, just tank water :) And the only thing I ever replace is the filter cartridge about once a month, but there's still the ceramic media and bio-wheel. Those don't seem to be enough to make up for the loss of bacteria from replacing the cartridge though.

Hi everyone! I have a 25 gallon tank. About 2 years ago (when I spent a lot less time learning about tanks before throwing pretty fish in), I put a male betta in my tank with some platys, neon tetras, corys and a giant plecostomus. The betta died after 8 months, and I could never figure out why...

Hi Everyone I have a 25 gallon tall tank that I set up 2 or 3 years ago. My filter is a Penguin 200. Currently, I have one filter cartridge and a little bag of ceramic media (that has been in there for at least a year) in the filter. I'm terrified to try and change or clean the filter cartridge...

yeah I definitely realize how big the sailfins can get... anyways, back to the angelfish, I think Im just going to forget it since I cant really seem to find anyone who thinks it could work..

haha yeah every time I mention the pleco, it inevitably leads to 'you need to get rid of him!' however, I don't have a bigger tank for him, I cant set one up, and I just dont have the heart to give him away :( Ive had him for almost 4 years now!

The pleco is a Sailfin Pleco He's quite large (about 10 inches from his nose to the tip of his tail) I really would love to have an angelfish, but if there's any chance of it not interacting with the other fish and being lonely, then Im not going to get one.. I guess what Im wondering is, what...

I currently have a 25 gallon tank (20 inches tall, 24 inches wide and 12 inches deep) that has 5 corys, 5 platys, 2 dwarf honey gourami, 7 neon tetras and 1 pleco. I have been researching angelfish for the last couple days, and wanted to get some advice from the experts before deciding anything...

My name's Robyn, and Im from Canada. Ive been keeping fish on and off for the last 6 years, and Im glad to have found this site! At the moment, I have a 25 gallon tall tank with 1 albino cory, 4 bronze corys, 1 pleco, 2 dwarf honey gourami, 7 neon tetras and 5 platys. I also have an empty 10...
