There is a reason why this tank is known as a "computer wallpaper" because it takes incredibly amount of work and motivation. This is like the mercedez of fish tanks righ here. I would advise starting small and going from there. You cant just go from beginner to expert but you already know that...

You will find that the color of your betta will come down to water parameters and nutrition. Breeders will use great foods like mosquito larvae and other great foods. Brine shrimp are also a great meal for them as well. Freeze dried shrimp is easy to have shipped to your house from amazon.com...

I would imagine that your guppies are just breeding. Live bearers are always breeding and what they do is try to show off to each other. The males will especially act tough and it’s quite funny to watch. My guppies do the same thing and so do my swordtails and mollies. It must be a Livebearer...

I would say that since the tank doesn't have any beneficial bacteria.. the fish are not in a safe habitat. You need to move them to a bigger tank that is ESTABLISHED. Quite a crazy story you have going here though.. It makes me nervous just hearing about fish in a NO cycle tank. Good luck and...

Your suppose to feed a pleco before you turn off your aquarium lights because they are Nocturnal (think thats how you spell that haha) The food you are feeding your Gouramis seems great to me.  Just don't overfeed them becaues they are known to get bloat which is very common for bettas and...

I'm going to say this nicely "you need a bigger aquarium" for your betta fish. 5 gallons at bare minimum or it makes me a very angry individual thinking about a betta living in a 1.5 tank. That is the size of the milk jug that I buy for our family to drink out of.. and you have a fish living...

Yeah I would personally just remove the betta for a half hour and put him in a small container like they already said. When the betta comes back to teh arrangement of the tank changed around.. he will be a lot less aggressive.

Wow! those binder dividers work great! holy crap

Adding aquarium salt really helped me

What you can do is buy a piece of plexy glass and drill a couple small holes through it so the water can go in between the layers. What you should do then is sand the glass so the betta fish can't see through the glass. When you sand it with sandpaper, it will become fogged which give them the...

Maybe try some "dried shrimp" A lot of times, it is mentioned as turtle food and they absolutely love the stuff

Maybe try less light if it us UV light or if the tank is near a window that is what is happening!   There are UV stabilizer lights to cut down on algae in teh water too. Here is a helpful article   http://www.drsfostersmith.com/pic/article.cfm?aid=714

That tank is pretty crowded there mate! maybe just plan on upgrading to a 20 gallon or 30 gallon tank when you get teh extra money.   Is My 10 Gallon Tank Too Small? About.com

Changing all the water is hard on the fish, that's not what I would do...   quit feeding the fish all together and after day one of no feeding, go and peel a "pea" from your grocery store and give him the inside of it. It really helps with digestion issues betta fish get.   STICK TO YOUR USUAL...

I have just read this statement 7 times..   "What can I can all I can think is"   I cant make sense of what your trying to say here
