Hello everyone, I'm an expereinced Tropical aquarium owner. I currently only have a ten gallon running. I'd like to upgrade to a 16 gallon and put Bolivian Rams in it. Here's what I was thinking: Aquarium 16G Bowfront...

Hello everyone, Does anyone have any ideas for a 5.5 gallon stocking? Thank you in advance.

Not much compared to some others posted here, but here they are re-scaped and everything. All done! I do have a 5.5 planted in the works, will post pictures of that once I have the hood for it. THE TWENTY GALLON: Right-slant: Left-slant: FULL TANK: THE 10 GALLON: FULL TANK:

Hello all. Which fish should go in which tank? I have a 20 high, a 10, and a 5.5. All with over-filtering and small amount of live plants. Current fish owned: 7 Albino Cories (Most peaceful things on Earth, I think!) 7 Platies (Peaceful.) 6 Gold Barbs (Very peaceful, even though for some...

Hello everyone, I recently posted in the Chit-Chat board about possibly setting up a planted one gallon (now going to do a 5.5 instead!) I would like to know of plants that I could use that are easy to care for. Also, does anyone have any suggestions as far as substrate, filtration and...

Hey, thanks a bunch for the response! I like the idea of a planted tank like that. few questions for you though, if you'd be so kind... What's an "arcadia arc pod"? Sorry, I'm kind of stupid with some of this stuff! As far as filtration goes, how could that be done? And possible lighting...

Hello all, So I've currently got a 20 and 10 set up and doing wonderfully, my only bad luck has been with plants... :-/ Anyway, I have a one gallon, that's right, a one gallon. And I'd like to set up something nice, I don't need a fish in there, maybe a snail or some sort of shrimp? I'm...

I currently have my 20 high stocked with: 1 American Flag Fish 1 Amano Shrimp 7 Albino Cories 6 Platies 1 Golden Wonder Killifish What kind of filter do you have? Substrate?

Put the plants in the tank.

The only place locally I can get them is very poorly run, I refuse to shop there. Many bad experiences with them. Even though you're a "newbie", that's a good post. I have a Penguin 200 which can handle a 50 gallon tank, so I think as far as filtration goes, I'm set. I don't think shrimp count...

Ah, alright. Well thank you very much for the help. :)

Hm, well thank you for that. Any other bottom dwellers you would suggest?

Hello all, me again!! A question: How many Albino Cories in a 20 gallon high with the stocking being: 6 Platies 1 Amano Shrimp 1 American Flag Fish Overstocked? Enough room for any Albino Cories? Thanks so much in advance.

I have read that minnows are naturally not tropical fish, but will be fine in a tropical tank. Was that wrong? I have also read about the platies being an issue, so thank you, I'll make sure to get a female or two. And yes, the tank is cycled. That's what I had heard about Dwarfs, hence why I...

It has a medium amount of plastic plants and only very few live ones. Sand substrate. Penguin 200 filter. Anyway, currently, only 5 platies, 3 males and 2 females. Seems to be working well actually. I was looking and some Rosy Minnows and/or White Clouds. I think a shoal of each, or a shoal...
