    Platform 55G Tank Bed Project - v. 1.0

    Hopefully you guys can see this picture. Yes, it is essentially a headboard with a tank built in. The side tables are also attached to the headboard, as well as the platform the mattress will be on....I hope this all makes sense. ;) Sent from my iPhone using MonsterAquariaNetwork app

    Platform 55G Tank Bed Project - v. 1.0

    After a week of mourning the death of my Mbuna tank, I've decided to start up a project thread for something I've been working on this past half-year. Originally, these plans were created months ago to coincide with the 55G Mbuna tank, but I have horrible luck in this hobby.... However, I have...

    4 Deaths in 4 Days - Someone please help?

    So maybe I jumped the gun by saying the remaining fish were healthy. As of this moment, all fish have passed away within the last 48 hours, except for one lonely Red Zebra. He will probably pass soon. I have continued with daily water changes, testing the water, etc, and everyone was eating and...

    4 Deaths in 4 Days - Someone please help?

    Thanks for the advice everyone. Update: All remaining fish are happy, healthy, and swimming. Going to continue watching them though. Ultimately, I'm going to purchase a canister, and then another on my next paycheck. Recommend your favorite, cause if I'm going to spend an arm and a leg, I want...

    10 gal tank mates for 2 separate tanks

    Don't know if this was already mentioned, but Ember Tetras are both beautiful and extremely small. They are skittish as hell, so they school well in community tanks. Mine loved to mess with my betta...before they committed mass suicide and got sucked into thr filter intake. (Seriously, if you...

    It's the actual motor making the noise. Cleaned it, greased it, but it still sounds like hell. It's 5 or so years old, so I think it deserves retirement.

    4 Deaths in 4 Days - Someone please help?

    The tank has two AC 110, and an Aqueon heater. I love the filters and the heater....the filters are old though, so I think they are just needing to be retired. The heater is one of my favorite kinds, so I might try the same heater again. Who knows?

    Tested water again. Still 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites, about 15 nitrate. pH is still at pre-death levels, around 7.5, which is good. Everyone is doing great, but with the heater broken, the tank is getting cold. Thinking about buying a better heater, but not sure about the brand...Also thinking about...

    4 Deaths in 4 Days - Someone please help?

    Lost one more fish, this time a Red Zebra. However, this particular fish wasn't fairing well since I purchased him months ago, so his death didn't surprise me. Actually, since removing the heater, everyone has really perked up. They are all eating except for my lone surviving Acei, but I believe...

    4 Deaths in 4 Days - Someone please help?

    I've done so many water changes, I can't imagine the culprit is detergent...And only the Acei are dying? Are they more sensitive to environmental factors than Red Zebras, cause the Zebras are doing a lot better than the remaining Acei...

    4 Deaths in 4 Days - Someone please help?

    The filter was too loud, so he stuffed a shirt in it. >.> I never noticed cause my media is white fibers anyway. If it's detergent, I don't know what else to do? So far I've done three 80% water changes, five 50% water changes, and several more 25% water changes.....I'm seriously at a lose....

    4 Deaths in 4 Days - Someone please help?

    Test kit is brand new, date on box within last 6 months. Water department said no new changes. I use prime. No spraying within home of any kind. Tank is in a location only available to my dog and I. The only thing I can think of is my roommate stuffed a white t-shirt in my filter about three...

    4 Deaths in 4 Days - Someone please help?

    No, no additions. Nothing in the tank has changed within the last few months except a new heater, but it fully operational and the temp has stayed the same. Also, just lost another Acei. Down to just two now.

    4 Deaths in 4 Days - Someone please help?

    I have an established 55 gallon Mbuna tank which had 7 Acei and 6 Red Zebras in it. The Acei were added a year ago, and the Red Zebra were added about 8 months ago. Regardless, about 4 days ago everyone in the tank started lying on the bottom and "gasping." I tested the water with an API master...

    55 Gallon Acei Tank - Need Help

    Oh, and I tried venting but I wasn't able to tell the difference, so I'm going to wait till they are bigger to sex and and re-group into groups of five or so.

    55 Gallon Acei Tank - Need Help

    I just wanted to update everyone. I have continued salt treatments, and all of the seven Acei are looking better. I will probably remove the other two males, but I'm trying to wait and see how the new dynamic works. I removed all previous decor and bought a ton of clay pots to replace the old...
