    Tank temperature plummeting

    Temperature has gone up but it still low, 72f not positive what caused it except likely a broken heater

    Tank temperature plummeting

    I will look into that. Maybe not the best option but I used a meat thermometer that reads the air as 80°, accurate, and the tank down at 55°

    Tank temperature plummeting

    I don't know the brand it's just some cheap thermometer that's always sitting in my tank. I felt the water of my hand and it feels like an ice bath. The heater doesn't have any refrigerant so it can't possibly be that. No air vent since I have no AC in that room. The temperature is slowly rising...

    Tank temperature plummeting

    I assume it is not the heater I was just wondering if some heaters had a cold water setting, figured they don't but worth asking. There is no AC vent since my bedroom is in the attic and there is no AC up there. It's plummeted way too fast for it just to be the air but there's nothing else it...

    Tank temperature plummeting

    So I've been keeping fish for quite a few years now and this is an issue I've never seen. When I woke up this morning, My fish tank was around 78f and now, only about 4 hours later, it is cold enough the thermometer is not picking up a reading. The thermometer has very limited range, 50f-100f...

    Pea Puffers

    Those tanks would be good and the sound depends on the filter. I personally use a Top Fin Pro filter and have very little sound

    Pea Puffers

    Yes 25 liter would work for 1 Pea Puffer.

    Pea Puffers

    Depends on the tank how many you could have, about 1 per 5 gallons, although they are territorial so be careful if you plan on keeping multiple. Other fish are not a good choice since Pea Puffers are rather territorial and carnivores. They are carnivores so live food or even frozen bloodworms...

    RIP Paul

    My Columbian Spotted Pleco, Paul, has died. I was on a trip and don't know for sure why but I believe he drowned or starved. When I got back he was sitting on the bottom which is normal for a pleco but then I noticed a few minutes later that he still had not moved. He was stuck in some of the...

    Frog Abuse

    2 frogs in these tiny tanks, maybe a quart. Toy store at my local mall had a ton of these. Extremely overpriced, around $50, and targeted at children. These kids will beg their parents to buy this for them and some parents will buy it. These frogs will live a miserable life and live another...

    Green Spotted Puffer

    Okay, so I have an empty 30-gallon tank I'm setting up or selling so I was looking at fish for it. I came across the Green Spotted Puffer as an option. I did some reading and they seem like awful fish to keep. They don't get as big as other puffers yet are still extremely aggressive. Tankmates...

    Which fish should I get

    Gourami is a good choice in my opinion and experience. We have an almost identical tank, except mine is 45 gallons with higher ph and I have cories. I have 2 Opaline Gourami in the tank and they only mess with each other. The smaller fish leave them alone also. I would say Opaline, Pearl, or...
