Ok I'll try to move the male to my 90G and once the female gives birth I'll move him back.

Ok but what will I do about the male platy chasing her? Get another female platy for him to bother or just move him? Also, I only have plastic plants in my aquariums because I am not allowed to care for live plants (*cough* *cough*). I am planning to get duckweed and a floating separator so it...

Oh...well I had this pleco when I got the tank (it was pre-owned) which was a month ago. The owner didn't really seem to care about the fish and the tank smelled like a century year old Porta-potty. He said he cleaned the tank every week but he hadn't cleaned it in a year. So, I had no other...

Hello! I had 2 Mickey Mouse Platies in my 90g for about 3 months. I moved them to my 44g about a month ago and one of them suddenly looked like it was really fat. I know she is female because no gono. (duh). I have bought a breeder box just in case but should I use it? Also, will the Platy eat...

Ok. My tank is 44g. Dimensions: 30 x 13 x 24

Hello! I have a 8 inch pleco and im planning to sell it after a year. How big will the pleco get by then? I feed it bottom feeder pellets and algae disks.

Ok! Still though, my Red Devil is very nice ( just ate 1 baby Yellow Lab when I cleaned the tank once ) and never really got aggressive. He/she only got mad when its feeding time and it chases all the other fish away to get ALL of the food ( it doesn't do this anymore I now feed from 2 sides )...

Hello! I have a 8 inch Pleco with a crooked tail. This is definitely not normal. I have found multiple theories about this. Ex: Low calcium, stuck in one place for too long or in a very small tank, birth defect, or mishandling. Water quality: Nitrate-10ppm Nitrite-0ppm Hardness-150ppm...

Hello! I had recently added a baby oscar to my 90G tank with some Yellow Lab cichlids and a Red Devil cichlid. Is it possible for these fish to be compatible? Water Quality Nitrate-40ppm Nitrate-0ppm Hardness-150ppm Chlorine-0ppm Alkalinity-60ppm pH-7.2 The tank also has two Emperor 400...

I would recommend slowly raising the temperature to 86F over a period of 6 days. Then add aquarium salt (1 tbs per 5G). Slowly add the salt over the time of a week.
