  1. Thank you for sharing guys! @Ken Burke, @AllFishNoBrakes, and @knee
  2. Hello guys, I will be purchasing a new tank soon and can't decide if to get a rimmed or rimless tank. Will a rimless tanks last longer than a rimmed tank or is it more prone for these tanks to leak? What are your thoughts on the Ultum Nature Systems (UNS) rimless tanks? I've never owned a rimless tank before but I'm looking for something durable and I wanted to know what are your thoughts on rimless tanks and which do you experienced fish-keepers think is better, rimless or rimmed tanks? Thank you in advance
  3. His a cute little guy, love the long-fins! Thank you @Guppysnail!
  4. Thank you guys! @DiscusLover, @Lennie, @JettsPapa, and @NOLANANO
  5. Hello everyone, I want to add a Pleco to my 30 gallon community tank. What Plecos do you guys recommend me for this tank size and that it isn't shy and won't hide a lot? Thank you in advance Have a great day!
  6. Thank you very much guys! @PerceptivePesce, @cavdad45, and @Procrypsis
  7. Hello everyone, Hope everyone is having a great weekend so far. How do you guys disinfect a tank as well as the heater, filter, nets and gravel vac that it had a disease outbreak ? Will only air-drying be sufficient to kill any disease? How can I sanitize everything to reuse this tank, filter and heater? I use the Aquarium co op heater? Thank you in advance 🙂

  9. Hello everyone, What do you guys use to clean your aquarium glass and that it doesn't scratch the glass? Thank you in advance 🙂
  10. Hey fishkeepers, I got the meds already for the Camallanus worms and today I removed all the decorations and the majority of the sand to start the treatment. I just need to wait until the water clears up more because its a bit cloudy. I have a couple of questions. I have to treat two tanks with the Prazipro and Expel-P for the Camallanus worms and I only have one siphone hose. Is it okay to use the same siphone hose on both tanks I will be treating or should I disinfect the siphone between each tank and how? I use a water pump to do my water changes, how should I effectively and safely disinfect this or is it not necessary? Will air drying these equipment kill these Camallanus worms? I have fry in my tank, will this treatment work for them? They are not that little but are really young and still small, they are not adults yet. I apologize for the questions, I just want to make sure I can successfully treat this and eradicate these worms. Thank you in advance
  11. Are Expel-P and praziquantal safe for plecos to treat internal parasites and Camallanus worms? Can I use these two medications when fish are in quarantine? I have the aquarium co op heater which has a light that says the temperature of the tank, is it necessary to cover this heater since levamisole is light sensitive?
  12. Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. I already purchased Expel-P, hopefully it comes tomorrow and I'm going to buy prazipro too to do the treatment like you posted here. Thanks again! 🙂 Sorry @Odd Duck,one last thing, do the fish tank have to be in blackout with prazipro too or is it just with Expel-P/levamasole?
  13. Thank you so much!! @Odd Duck, I purchased Expel-P, will this work? I heard it contains levamisole. Can I use Praziquantal after I'm done with the Camallanus worm treatment or will Prazi work best if used with levamisole? I was planning on removing all the sand in my tank for it to be easier for me to clean the debris and worms out of the tank and be 100% sure that I'm removing these parasites because I have a lot of sand in my tank. Can I reuse this sand once treatment is done or is it best to get new sand to prevent reinfection? What did you use to completely black out your tank? My tank is next to a window. Sorry, Im pretty new to the hobby and its my first time dealing with this. Do you recommend me after treating for Camallanus worm, to break down my tank and bleach everything and then reintroduce my fish again into this tank to reinfection? I'm really worried about my fish and these worms coming back.
  14. Thank you! It must be that I don't know how to use it lol. I'm going to check out a video to see how to properly do it. Thanks again!
  15. Thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking the time to explain this to me. I hope I can successfully treat this. So far all my fish have been eating and are active so thats a good sign. It was just today that I noticed my Bolivian ram had these worms and so far, his the only one that has it. Thanks again 🙂 Thank you! One last thing, sorry lol, What siphone hose do you use? I use one from top-fin but I feel like it doesn't really pick up the sand very well. I have caribsea sand in my tank.
  16. Should I break down the whole tank and disinfect everything with bleach to prevent reinfection or its not necessary?
  17. Thank you! Sorry, To clarify, I have a 30 gallon tank, so I would add 3 packets of the med into the tank on Day 1 and Day 2 siphone the tank and do water change and not add any more of this med until the following week and than repeat this 3 more times? Did you break down the whole tank and disinfect it to prevent reinfection? Sorry, I'm pretty new to the hobby and Its my first time dealing with this and I'm scared of doing it wrong and killing my fish. Thanks again!
