Hi All, I am fairly new to aquariums and I have a 20 Gallon Long planted community tank. Thank you everyone for your help! I first got about 25 PFR's last Friday, 9/8/2017 and allowed about 3 hours for them to get acclimated to my water by slowing adding my water. Once they were in the tank...

Current tank parameters: pH between 7 and 7.4 Temperature is around 28-29 Ammonia tester has gone bad and gave unreliable readings ( always eight ppm even though there are living things in the tank ), but I use some neutralizers just in case. I do not currently have a reader for TDS, gH, or...

(Also new to this site. I guess I should be posting in the Introductions forum. Oh well. :wink2:) I am considering building a planted tank and adding some cherry red shrimp. The closest thing I've ever had to an aquarium is some Marimo moss balls in jars, so I've been reading a lot. But there's...

Hi I am looking to buy some hardscaping stones for my shrimp tank? Anybody in Houston know of a seller? I don't wan't to order any online. You really have to look and touch this type of stuff in person. And look at every single angle, crevice and crack to be completely happy with your purchase...

I have a 40 gallon and recently got a hold of about 6 cherry red shrimp (2 of which are PFR's). Two of the shrimp are berried and i was wondering if i dont put a sponge over the filter inlet, will i lose all the little shrimp? What are my chances of having a colony grow in my tank?

Hi Everyone! I purchased a 27 gallon cube tank this past weekend. I have been neurotically checking ammonia and nitrite levels and performing partial water changes up to twice a day while learning about cycling my tank. Well, as I also broke down the same day I had the tank and picked up 5...

Hi all, I just posted on my blog: macro photos of 3 types of shrimp (cherry red, Pinocchio and flower) in my aquarium. The response to the photo of the pond snail was so positive (thanks again) that I thought I would re-post one of them here. I'd love to read any comments or suggestions...

I have a Fluval Edge 6 gallon. This is my first planted tank, and it seems to be going well so far, at least with the plants. I changed my light bulbs out to MR11 LED lights. So this is okay for low-med light plants? Or only low light? I originally started out with 5 neon tetras and 5 cherry...
