Thanks for the reply Biulu, So basically you're saying I should put my Aqueon bulb back in.. It wasn't burnt out, I just wanted to get my plants to grow. The laterite has been in a year this coming January and was probably1/4 - 1/2 inch. My fern isn't attached to anything but I did buy a plant...

Wow, your tank is really nice. Franki

Hi, If I could get some snail info I would really appreciate it. I have a planted tank and some regular little brown snails snuck in on the plants. I have been picking them out since last May. I pick them out everytime I see them and put them in a cup and put them in my outdoor (mud bottom)...

Can someone please enlighten me? I have a 26 gallon bow front Aqueon tank. It was set up last January. The water is good all of the fish are the originals put in last year. I seem to be losing ground on my plants. I have a couple of swords that were doing well but seem to be fading. I had a...

Hi Everyone, First I want to say "Thank you" to all that took the time to read and reply to my request for help. I would like to give you an update on my Pearl Gourami girl. I did not do the second round (package) of the Triple Sulfa. I couldn't get out the day after I posted due to snow. I...

You might try your privately owned fish stores. We have some here (OH) that will take them if they're in good health and give you a store credit. I have some Red-Blue Colombian Tetras and also some Bleeding Hearts that have gotten too big for my tank. My local non chain fish store said they...

Hi, I have a snail question(s). I have a big blue snail that I bought about 6 weeks ago. I have done some research and I know that it's not an Apple Snail. There isn't a air breathing tube. I've looked at the Applesnail.com site but still not sure. One of my questions is; Are a Ramshorn and...

When I went home last night my tank was a little milky looking and some of the fish were sort of quiet. My corys were active and my big blue snail was also active. I watched the fish for about an hour and got nervous about putting in the second dose of Triple Sulfa. I checked the chemical levels...

Trying again, I thought the photo was attached.

There was initially some redness but it went away after the application of the Tea Tree Oil. My substrate is all rounded pebbles. Photo attached. I will add the second dose tonight. I'm hoping this works. I really like my Pearls. This is my first one. She has had one feeler shorter than the...
