well, when i had that current running, my betta was able to over around the tank without getting 'pushed' also cause my pump had a control turner knob to control the strength of the current. i was initally skeptical with the current, but he seemed happy and swimming actively when the pump was in...

hi there. I also have a betta in the biorb. this was what i did.... - added aquatic soil - added water - added anti chlorine - let the current run - added clarifying solution (to clear up cloudy water) - let the water cycle for a day - released my betta the next day my oxygen pump did work 2...

Hi all... I am currently housing 5 black skirt tetras in a 15 gallon tank. Have had them for months and they have grown to about an inch plus since i got them when they were younger.... They are probably the hardiest tetras I've tried keeping and they have survived 2 rounds of unknown causing...

Hi all... I have had 2 of my 15 gallon tank up and running with my black skirt tetras and guppies for a couple of months already. I initially covered the tank bedding with white river sand because I wanted a Japanese Garden theme. Over the few weeks i read that black skirt tetras do better with...

yeah.... Now i'm just thinking what I should do with the hunchback cause it is settling in that one small extra tank that's sitting away from my main tank..... its looking lonely..... =(

hi... yeah i was doing some 'deep' cleaning of my river sand bed when something floated out of no where. didn't look like it was a plant or 'consolidated' food pellet. I'm just going to accept that it was it..... oh well.... =(

I checked the floor. I have a heavy tank lid and I'm always careful when opening the lid. No, the hunch back guppy was already in the isolation tank..... I just did a routine water change today. discovered nothing.... =(

Another guppy thread... I can't find my guppy. Its been days and I can't seem to find him. I last saw him swimming happily with the others and a couple of hours later, he was gone. He's been out of sight for the last 2 days. I've searched plants, gravel/sand, deco, filter etc..... nothing. I...

I recently noticed one of my female guppy has a hunchback. I read from somewhere it is a deformity. Another site mentioned something being a fish TB? I have her isolated in a small breeding tank for a couple of weeks and was wondering if its actually ok to put her into the main tank with the...

Hi Thanks for your valuable advise! Tetra tank: After some thoughts, I’m going to leave my 5 black widows in the tank. Did a total change in plants and soil (because they were rotting and I didn’t like the idea some of my neons were trapped and died amongst the leaves). Did a 50% water change...

I change water once every week without fail. About 40- 50% change with addition of anti chlorine. I religiously clear all the poop the fish produces so as to reduce bacteria circulating. I also feed them minimal amount once in the morning and once in the evening, sometimes skipping the dinner...

Hi there. My last few neons died before I could take photos of them when I came home. The only tough survivors in the tank now are my black widows (5 of them). I’m going to recycle the tank again, change all my plants and substrate. My black widows are very hardy, I was wondering if I can...

hi all. I’m new here and I recently started the fish aquarium hobby several months ago. I have two tanks. 1 for my tetras (neons and black widows), 1 for my guppies. Everything was fine when my neon tetras start falling sick. I isolated them and medicated them but they somehow couldn’t take the...
