Hi, my son really wants to get a fish tank. Probably somewhere in the vicinity of 10 to 20 gallons. Unlikely it will be larger than that period plan on it being a freshwater tank. I'm looking for suggestions on colorful low maintenance fish that would be suitable for that size tank, and being kept together. There might be no such thing, but I figure that asking on the site from people who are really into it, would help us make an informed decision.

Thanks

Hello,
I purchased 2 plants from pets mart, one is a peacock fern, the other a sword , I thought they were aquatic but when I got home noticed the package states they are semi aquatic. So I’m wondering if they will survive in my aquarium? I put the fern in my HOB filter and it started to wilt so I put it in the aquarium and it looks much better.. but will it eventually die? Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you [emoji4]

Hello,
I’m hoping that someone can help me understand this well water test which I don’t totally understand. It also stated that there is Radon In the well water.

I’m wondering if this is affecting the quality of my fish and plants . My fish seem fine but plants constantly die after awhile. I have had my main tank for over 3 yrs and have spent so much $ on plants... [Read More]

Hey what’s up people? I have an aqueon quiet flow 75. Is there any suggestions on how to quiet the current sloshing sound coming into the filter from the intake tube? Or the vibration from the lid? I recently sent up the tank and my wife is less then thrilled over the sounds. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for letting me join.

Got myself a smart power 4 gang outlet with 4 USBs and a surge protector which as Wi-Fi built into it and works with Alexa and Google home assistant.

Been trying this 4 gang outlet out now for a couple of days and I've got to say its actually very good.

First of all you need to download the smart-Life App to your phone which I've already got for the water leak detector i have next to the sump in the bottom of the cabinet, this uses the same App.

Afternoon,

Got a RedSea Reefer 350 yesterday. Some minor scratches, no chips or any major damage. Paid £400 for it. Bargain if you ask me.

So, today’s project was to do the following:
1. Get the tank out of the van. (heavy)
2. Get the sump out of the van. Leave the cabinet in the van for now. (deceptively heavy)
3. Deep clean the tank, dry & polish it. (All looks good, few minor scratches)
4. Empty the sump of all of its many filters &... [Read More]

Just noticed this on my moon rock coral.... is the red stuff red algae and is it going to kill stuff?
