    Moving House

    How long is the drive from current location to new house? I moved my cichlids from 3 hours away in 5 gallon buckets with lids and about half full of tank water.. About 4-5 per bucket. Then as soon as home, put them in a big round plastic tub I purchased at Walmart over night with heater. They...

    400Ltr Mbuna Tank Update

    Super nice cichlids! Would love to see a bigger FTS.. The red zebra looks male to me.. It's scientific name is Metriaclima estherae 6 also looks like a zebra cichlid. Maybe the Pseudotropheus sp. zebra Long Pelvic Chesese. It looks male to me, but I'm no expert. I also keep those types, but...

    Need Suggestion On Choising Starter Fish

    I have the zebra in my tank and they are are very hardy in my opinion. But very aggressive. While you are cycling your tank you will have time to read about them and decide if they are the fish for you. I really love mine, but it does take time and "lots of hiding spots" such as rock work, etc...

    What's The Highest Ammonia You Ever Saw?

    Oh, I didn't know that it could get that high that fast! I'll try to have them seperate fish from now on then. That blew my mind. I even retested because I couldn't believe it was right, but got the same reading.

    Best White Spot Treatment

    Hmm.. I bought the Jungle Ick 2 one and it did GREAT! No ick anywhere, but I may have caught it just as it was in the stage when it's easy to kill.

    What's The Highest Ammonia You Ever Saw?

    Well, I bought some new fish and as I was testing mine at the time, I decided to test the water in the bag of new fish bought. I figured it would be much better stats than mine. Anyway, the ammonia was 8+... I was shocked! The fish are doing good now and the LFS fish in that tank looked awesome...

Came home and searched them out. They are dyed I guess. I had no idea when I bought them. Just thought...

    What's The Highest Ammonia You Ever Saw?

    I was wondering what is the highest ammonia reading some of you have ever gotten? And if there is any medicines or anything that would make tank water show high levels of ammonia that may be false readings or just not harmful to fish for some reason? :unsure:

    Raising Cecropias

    Wow!!! They are gorgeous. Do they go underground to change to their moth stage? And how long do they live as a moth? We had one that only lived 24 hours as a moth after all that... :sad: Hope these have a longer lifespan as a moth!
