    Angel tank: TBT

    This was my first big tank when I graduated from 10 Gallon and got a little serious with my hobby ( only to be ridiculed when I came across you crazy people who have like 1000 Gs in aquarium). Hope you enjoy it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlQUHWNjjl8

    One small tank and thousands of ideas...

    I'm deep into the planning on my second new aquarium in my home. It's a great feeling, I'm now in that most exciting phase of the planning process (in my warped opinion, anyways): the "Which idea do I try?" phase! On the surface, this seems like a really great place to be- and it is-but it's...

    Ways to avoid screwing up your tank with aquatic botanicals!

    Well, I think the succinct and (if I say so myself) somewhat snappy title worked pretty well...got you here, right? Actually, today's piece has some pretty serious undertones, as the title implies. Yet, you don't need to freak out or anything. We're simply going to discuss a few of the finer...

    New tank questions

    Starting to plan/continuing to save for a new tank that I would like to be an African show tank once we finally find a new house to purchase locally. I was hoping for something at least 125 gallons but hopefully more. Not sure yet if I want to transfer Tanganyikans from my existing tank or...

    De-snailing plants before adding to the tank

    Hi, I have some plants I'm growing in tubs under lights and I'd like to add them to a tank that doesn't have snails. The plants in the tubs do have some of those nasty little pond snails. Past experience tells me just trying to make sure I pick everything off is no guarantee that I I'll...

    How to tick off your tank. Easily and predictably?

    Okay, we spend so much time, money, ink and bandwidth talking about how to keep your fish healthy and happy that I realized we never seem to talk about what makes them unhappy! That's right. Let's take a look at some things that aquariums DON'T like-and why you should correct the outmoded or...

    Finally set up a tank!!!

    Had to take down all my tanks (except a 3 gallon cube) about a year ago, to renovate my house to sell and move. Finally set up a new 75, planted with anubias, java fern, a couple of crypts, and banna plants, and some tetras to get things going. It's set up on a peninsula, and visible from 3...

    Substrate for Tank

    I am getting ready to start my first cichlid tank(46gallons). I am wondering what type of substrate to use? I was thinking sand because it is the most natural and it looks good, but I heard it is very hard to clean. What are your thoughts on which substrate to use and if you could also include...
