Hello, So I have had this snail for about a year now, and their shell keeps degrading. I've tried many things to make sure that it has enough calcium but nothing seems to work. Any suggestions on what could be causing it? I've tried changing it's diet to be more calcium rich, added more calcium...

My pleco fish fins started getting white and then the top of his body and under his body. Im not sure if hes sick or what i should do . IS my fish dying?

I have a 90 gallon freshwater aquarium. Yesterday I noticed that one of my angels wasn't eating. She was very lethargic. This morning she had passed away. My other angel is looking for her and is flicking her feeler fins almost as if she is confused. I only had 2 of them. Will my other fish be...

Hello; I have never had this issue before and cannot figure it out. It seems that it started about 2 weeks after I put a female guppy in my tank because I wanted some babies. (50 gallon tank, bottom gravel filtering, eco system) Well, the tank has had a kind of cloudy look since. I wonder if...

Over the weekend, my mom decided to get two african dwarf frogs for her 5 gallon tank that has 3 Neon Tetras and 1 betta, as I know a lot more about aquariums and ect she has me take care of it for her. Anyway, they were doing great for 3 days until this morning, 1 died. It seemed out of nowhere...

Hi all, I'm sorry for the bold title but I'm in a bit of an emergency with my fish. The filter of my family's tank broke and my parents decided to install a new filter, as well as replace the majority of water in the tank to clean it (yes, I know, bad idea, but they didn't know). In reaction to...

Do freshwater and saltwater equipment have to be replaced even if they're working properly? I heard that even though certain pieces of equipment can last pretty long, they still need to be replaced because they release harmful chemicals overtime or something like that...just checking with the pros

Even though I thoroughly boiled my driftwood before adding it to the tank, it still changed the color of my water...should I have let it soak for a couple days before adding it to the tank, or is this just a sign to momentarily chuck out the wood?

Just wanna hear from you guys as to which type of tank is the most fun/easy to keep :)

Woke up today and found that one of them had a swollen belly? Is this some sort of an infection that'll spread? Any advice is welcome! Thanks!

Hi! I have an aquarium that's about 3 months old. It is 10gal and has 2 otocinclus, 2 glowlight tetra, 3 neon tetra and a mystery snail. It had more fish, but the tank crashed about a month ago and I lost a lot of them, these are the survivors. Since the crash, my levels have been pretty steady...

Hello guys, So here's the deal: I have a 35 gallon tank and a 5 gallon tank. Each time I buy a new fish for my 35 gallon tank, at least one of them die. Most of the time my water levels were fine so I thought maybe there was a problem with the fish itself.... I won't talk much about the 5...

I currently have 6 tiger barbs, one 4-5in rainbow shark, and an albino bristlenose pleco in my 38 gallon tank. The rainbow tends to chase the barbs away from his den and will chase them away from his food, but aside from that, they are relatively peaceful with each other. I wanted to know what...

Okay guys, I've asked for a lot of advice from y'all for a while now, and I think I've finally put together some good sets that could work for my tank. I kept an eye on pH and temperature, and double checked with aqadvisor just to see what it says my stocking level is like with these set ups...
