    Setting Up A Q-Tank

    Hey guys, just wanted to know how to set up a small Q-tank for when I decide to add more fish to the main tank. I'm thinking a ten gallon would be nice enough for size and saving room. What type/ brand of sponge filter works well enough? The gravel and fake ornaments shouldn't be much of a...

    If I Wanted To Add More Fish...

    I wanted to add more white clouds and maybe some kuhlis, but I don't have a hospital tank nor have I ever needed to use one (I know I'll likely get a reeming for this) but I wanted to know if there was something I could do to the new fish before I put them in the tank that would take care of...

    Snails, No Snails,

    Here's a list as far as my own knowledge goes. ~Angela APPLE SNAILS Any snails in the Apple snail family are absolute no no's with planted tanks(although certain mystery snails will only eat dead plant material), and can quickly foul the water quality, as well as breed rapidly. POND SNAILS...

    Anyone else have bird too

    I'm laughing at all these funny bird stories :p: I personally have a 5 yr old quaker named Riko. He is the love of my life. I also bring him in the shower with me, and he's like a duck to water. He shakes around in the water, almost falls over! He's brought so much to my life that I wouldn't...

    I'm sorry but this woman needs a flogging.

    This is what I've been saying for a few years now. Sadly, I think this kind of thing would really be for the best in the interest of children and society in general. I also agree with Nursie that there are such loving people who can't have children, and yet the most inequiped people are so...

    How To Protect Short Story Posts Online

    That pdf creator has multiple options like disallow: which prevents editing, copying, printing, and such. But what's to stop someone from writing it by hand? Do you think that could happen? If so, what do I do?

    My short story day in court

    New project: Seagrass/Seahorse tank

    Good luck with your venture here. Actually, I myself have been researching what it takes to keep seahorses. Though I am a freshwater planted tank keeper of only a year, I still like to do research ahead of time. It wont be that soon either, I'd have to have more money, more space, preferably my...

    Hornwart Absorbing all the Ferts?

    I only dose the recommended amounts on each bottle, nothing over. I'll have to check out the watersprite, it could still add to ground cover if it's planted in different areas I suppose, and I've always liked the look of it. My tank is low light, but there are a good array of choices despite...

    Curious About My Stocking Limit

    Yeah, I'd rather stick to these fish for this tank. It doesn't have to be stocked to the limit of course, but adding a few more wouldn't be bad. I just need to know some decent numbers so I don't go overboard.

    Curious About My Stocking Limit

    I think you guys are reading my mind, I was thinking about more white clouds too. What would be a decent and safe number of each species to add? How many more kuhlis, and how many more white clouds?

    Hornwart Absorbing all the Ferts?

    I guess I'm a stickler for wanting a nice ground covered aquascape, the horwart kind of offsets that. Never does stay put even if you plant the stuff! What would be a good fast grower that will stay planted and add more ground cover? I keep thinking of watersprite as an alternative, but I am...

    Curious About My Stocking Limit

    I actually haven't noticed my kuhlis eating any snails. They might be too big for their mouths, or they just don't like the kind I have...? I wouldn't mind having more kuhlis though, their such sweeties :p: , maybe I'll pick some of those up instead of plants. BTW, at night I've seen them...

    Curious About My Stocking Limit

    I was curious if what is listed below in my sig is too much for my 55gal. Five swordtails will be given to lfs soon, maybe this weekend. Also, if I grab some new plants while I'm there, what do I use to kill off any parasites/snail eggs/ich,etc.?

    Hornwart Absorbing all the Ferts?

    I was just wondering if hornwart, since it is a faster grower than the other plants I have, is using all the liquid ferts I dose before the other plants can use them. I'm thinking of removing it and seeing if the other plants start to flourish on their own. What do you guys think? Would this be...
