    Lighting For Plants

    Hi, I've replanted my tank 3 times now because the plants kept dying. Last time I took out dying plants I put them in my smaller breeding tank which has a much brighter light (60W), compared to the 25W tube on my larger tank. The plants revived. Obvious conclusion? My big tank is not lit well...

    Deaths And Disappearances

    The catfish may not be that one, but it is certainly very similar. My dad had a fully grown one years ago which wasn't 20 inches long. It was probably 10-15 inches (never measured at the time) and it survived okay in the tank. I think by the end of my dad's attempt at keeping fish, it was the...

    Is This Fish Diseased?

    Hi, I'm brand new to all this. I just set my aquarium up a couple of weeks ago. I bought a few platty today and when I got them home I noticed some silvery splots on the bodies of two of them. I don't know if this is disease or not, but they are in isolation until I find out. I took a photo...
