  1. My stocking is 3 discus, 1 angelfish, 1 pleco and 1 rope fish how many should I run
  2. So my 55s filter is on the brink of death and I want to put sponge filters in and I want to use coops but larges are out of stock and I was wondering if 4 mediums would do since it’s the same volume as 2 larges and I can’t really wait for them to come into stock since the filter is about to die
  3. I don’t know if this is gonna sound impossible to some of your or if this makes sense I want to build a stand for a 75 then build a shelf for a 40b on top of it out of 2x4s I can draw a plan in the morning if that would help already know my plan for the 75g stand is good I just don’t know if my plan for the shelf is I want to have 6 2x4s coming up so 3 on each side on to a base of 2x4s with 2x6s as the base for the tank to sit on with 2x4s every 12in under it as braces I hope this isn’t to confusing I will most likely upload a drawing of my plan(don’t expect a lot) around 12pst tomorrow
  4. How big where the 6 in the 55 because that’s what there in I’ve also been wanting a 75 for a while so that may be and option
  5. I’m not sure about things like sadness or happiness even though I have seen fish acting what seems like sad and down or happy and hyper but I’m 99%sure they can do basic things like be fearful or have pain
  6. So I just added a new discus yesterday and one of my other ones leaves it alone and actually kinda protects it but the other chases It and then sometimes like bumps into it
  7. I want to get my discus some blackworms just to add some more variety their diet is there anything I should know?
  8. There is a . Before the 5 it’s just hard to see
  9. I’m looking for a good budget light for a 40b I want a fluval aquasky but I wanted to see if I could get anything that’s the same for cheaper (the aquasky is $110) if not not really a problem
  10. It really depends on the fish some(like discus) need water in the 80s but some like axolotls need mid to low 60s so there is a lot of variety in temps if you need to cool down tanks I suggest frozen water bottles or if your don’t want to have that hassle get a chiller they are pretty expensive though and definitely for big tanks can be very pricey I use frozen water bottles for my axolotl(because in his permanent tank I have a plan for cooling and am able to keep his water in the mid 60s I hope this answers your questions just look up temp requirements for your fish if you any of your questions weren’t answered please reply with what part wasn’t answered
  11. I have one with a convict chiclid you could probably get away with 2 but they have a descent chance of killing the other one so I just play it safe and also they will not leave plants alone so I would recommend fake plants
  12. Could you link to what your are talking about in particular
  13. So I am debating putting co2 in a 10g planted aquarium I am gonna be building but I have a lot of questions about it I haven’t done much research yet but These where my main questions 1. Is it betta and shrimp safe 2. how does it work( like do I have to have a big tank of co2 or can I just use cartridges) 3. is co2 ok for such a small tank 4. Are all plants co2 safe 5. Is it hard to set up and use 6. will it affect my filters(maybe a stupid question but I don’t know anything) also some good articles would be appreciated if you know of them
  14. These are my top 3 big box pet stores in general people who think 1g is ok for a betta And My own stupidity some times😂
  15. Not from what I see stop being a jerk and Questioning everything people more experienced people do.
  16. Probably either breeds them or has a lot of tanks
  17. I would try hillstream loaches they like cold water but I’ve never kept Them that cold so I don’t know
  18. I am going to redo my 55 and I was shopping for plants and I’ve noticed some say that plecos are likely to eat the leaves so I want to know what I could put the tank has 2 large co-op sponge filters and is kept at 86 degrees everything else is change able this is the stocking 2(I might be getting a 3rd) 1 angelfish 1 rope fish 1 hill stream loach also for the plants you recommend what light and substrate would you recommend
  19. Yeah they are just google reptile stores near me the names usually have something to do with reptiles but not always
