@anewbie We will be driving, however I'm hesitant to use totes, since I don't the fish to be constantly jostled around, but I will consider, thank you.

Hello everyone! I'm about to move to Indiana, and I want to take my goldfish with me. However, I'm not sure what container/bag I'll use, since some of my goldies are 6"+, so here's my question: What would yall use to move larger fish? any recommendation are appreciated, and links to products will be highly appreciated, thx!

Hello everyone! I've recently found myself in an interesting situation. Currently, my grandfather has 6 Golden White Cloud Minnows in a 29g tank. I have noticed that some of them are fin nipping, which means that there isn't enough members to disperse aggression. However, the only place where I can buy GWCMMs (Petco) has seemingly stopped carrying them at the store. But I have a solution, but I want to check with yall just to be safe. my local Petsmart frequently carries regular WCMMs. So I'm think I'll buy him some of those instead. Though I am slightly concerned that it may cause issues since they're different morphs, so here's my question: can you mix different colored WCMMs? Or will it cause issues?

what's the fish stocking?

@ndfi78 yeah no. It's mouth is similar to that of a cichlid or bass. and it has a regular fish eye- Better luck next time fam.

Hi everyone! I was at my local Petco and I saw this fish at the store. There was no label for this fish there, and when I asked a couple of the employees, they told me that it came with their Ghost Shrimp shipment, with no indication of species. Does anyone know what it is? Sorry for bad quality btw, it was hard to get good pics of it.

Hi everyone! I recently considered getting Asian Stone Mini Catfish (Hara jerdoni) for a 10 gallon. Do they need to be in groups? if so, how many should I get for my 10g? thx in advance for any info you have.

Hi everyone! I recently bought some calcium sand for a terrarium I'm working on, but I didn't end up using a lot of it, and I have no clue when I'll set up another terrarium, so here's my question: Can reptile calcium sand be used in aquariums?

@Tombeaux, If it weren't for what @L_goodei200 said, then I'd say it's fine, but y'know... maybe look into Elassoma, another nano coldwater centerpiece fish. If they're anything like regular sunfish, they'll do fine with the White Clouds. Or you could just do the White Clouds by themselves and get like ten of em, which would be the best and least risky option.

ok, so: 1. nope, he looks fine. 2. what type of shrimp do you have? most shrimps do better in groups. 3. you shouldn't have 0 nitrates, how old is the tank he's in rn?

Sure can! Goldfish rarely ever show aggression towards each other, so keeping them together is not a big deal. The worst that could happen is that one occasionally chases the other around, but this doesn't last long and no harm comes out of it.

Hi everyone! I was wondering, can multiple Florida Flagfish be kept together in the same tank? or do they not like each other? I tried to find my answer online but came up with nothing, thx for any info you can give on the subject!

what do you feed him? is he aggressive at all? does he hide a lot in ur tank?

Hi everyone! last year I had seen some Sculpins in a nearby creek, and I'm curious about their care. If you have any experience with the species, just dump any info you got through ur experience! thx in advance!

Hi everyone! Just a quick question, do maculatus platies tolerate colder water like variatus do? I never see variatus for sale where I shop for fish so I'm wondering if I can just get maculatus and keep em in the same temp. Also asking for my grandpa. Thx in advance!
