    Online plants - good or bad?

    I’ve made several purchases from Aquarium Co-op over the years. Never had a bad experience with the quality of plants and price. They take exceptional care in packing the plants for shipment and have plenty of positive reviews.

    This is “Winni,” she is our three year old Cairn terrier mix that we rescued about one year ago. If Winni was a fish she would fall into the cichlid family, full of personality, but can be aggressive towards strange dogs & cats. When we first picked her up she was a hammer and all other dogs &...

    Flagtail prochilodus experiment.

    Francisco, Thanks for the reply! Sounds like you love flagtails too! My first/current flagtail arrived when it was 2” back in May 2019. Their fast growing and have lots of personality, hand feeding is amazing something I might try. I knew they liked to eat algae, but it surprised me that they...

    New tank smells….fishy….why?

    I only have that problem when my catfish doesn’t eat all the Hikari sinking protein pellets. Stinks up the whole room until I net them out.🥵

    Opinions on the following fish…

    I currently have experience with a Flagtail, Arowana, and had a Geophagus surinamensis. Highly recommend the Flagtail prochilodus, they are one of the best algae eaters imho. He cleans off my African fern, anubias, Val’s, and Java ferns without damaging them. I have a 30 inch silver Arowana and...

    Do I need to separate these two guys

    A lot of good suggestions on here. Yes, the pleco can grow big, I currently have one in my 360 gallon tank and it’s 20 inches and very shy. The Chinese algae eater can be very aggressive and I’ve heard that they will suck on other tank mates, and someone already said they don’t eat any algae...

    How to get rid of this algae and what is it?

    Your tank looks like mine did a few weeks ago, lot’s of bba. Good suggestions on here, but try cutting back on your lighting and co2, also I used a product called Easy Carbon it’s an algae inhibitor. Good luck!
