Hi all, I recently added a mangrove propagule to my new brackish tank, and the 2 leaf tips are turning black. Any ideas what might be the problem? Much appreciated!

Is it safe? I also have some Inca snails and large fancy goldfish in the same tank. They do not pick up and spit out the current gravel like past ones I had, but I imagine they will pick up some when feeding. Will this sand harm them in any way or is it safe. When I searched this question...

I got a batch of Crystal Black Shrimp for my heavily planted nano tank after it had been cycled and the water parameters were perfect. The shrimp did great for over a week as I was slowly introducing fertelizers. Seachem Iron, Potassium and Flourish didn't seem to bother them at all. This...

Greetings! I am searching for a source of live Tubifex worms. It would be good if it were local - I'm in Orlando, FL, but if a mail delivery is the way to go, I'd prefer a source on this side of the country to cut down on delivery time. Many thanks for this information!

While re-siliconing my 25Gal recently I cracked the top black rim/brace while attempting to get it out for the project. Its cracked towards one of the corners and now I am worried about the integrity of the tank. I read in a few other threads that braceless might work in some instances - however...

I have been wanting to try some in my 40b I am thinking about setting up. Everywhere I look I can't find it. I looked on homedepot.com and lowes.com and they don't have it. I saw some on amazon but shipping was $40.00!!!:eek:

I have 5 fish in my tank that were given to me. I'm not sure what they are exactly, and would love to know! They are all between 1" - 1.5" long, yellow with black "splotches" on their sides, and a slight red tint to the fins.
