Thanks again for all your help... I had my water tested, and the woman said the ph level was slightly low (which I corrected with the powder she recommended.) funny thing is, I used the same powder when I first started the tank. and I think it's definitely Neon Tetra disease, because the fish...

hey everyone, I was wondering how to clean the gravel at the bottom of my tank (or "vaccuum"). I have a pump, but on the description it said that it can only be used to syphon (sp?) some water out of the tank so you can replace it with fresh water. I'm assumping I could use the same pump to...

hey everyone, I'm just starting a fish tank and I was wondering if any of you have ghost shrimp. I looked them up on the internet and am very interested in them, and I hope to add them to my aquarium sometime in the near future. do you have any advice for me? and if you strongly disagree with...
