aquarium

Ive been doing a lot of research on substrateo_O. im interested in a low tech plant/fish aquarium. A lot of the plants im interested in receive their nutrients from the water column. I might end up with a few that feed from the roots. What substrate can I use that wont rob my bank account?:) no...

My terrors bred in January and all of the fry are large enough to go to new homes. They're still too small to identify the sex. The male is a balloon/dwarf GT and the female is normal GT, so I have no idea if the offspring will be balloons or not, but none of them look to me like they have the...

I have a 210 gallon aquarium (7' x 2' x 2.5') and tonight all of a sudden the 2 braces broke off and fell in the tank. The braces were at ~28 inches and ~56 inches. From what I have read, this could be a sign of aquarium bowing and impending failure, so I am draining half of the water and moving...

This is not a typical box fish tank. The aquarium is curved glass and approximately 95G (4' L x approx 19" W x approx 25" H). The price includes the furniture quality stand and canopy (rich cherry color) as well as the sump (oceanic) and pump (mag-drive). The canopy has a built in feeder hole so...

Have you ever heard of an igarape before? It translates roughly as "canoe road" in the Hengatu dialect of the Tupi language (spoken all over the Western Amazon region), and that's just what it is: A little jungle stream that is used by indigenous people in Brazil to navigate through the rain...

got word yesterday that Rich is relocating to the Waldorf area in the shopping center when Burlington is located. I know he is not the nicest or that his store can be a mess at time but he still gets the tank busters into his store. I was curious if anyone else has seen this I have not been by...

After seeing Joey's presentation at the big fish deal this year I was inspired to see what I could come up with! This is my very first one and it works! It's been set up for about a month now and no leaks. It's a glass 11 gallon aquarium with sliding glass lids, and solid quilted maple trim all...

Before we get too far into this, I want to point out that todays piece is strictly MY OPINION. It's editorial in nature, and you may even find it offensive. For that, I actually don't apologize. I wanted to say a few things that have been on my mind of late, and some of them are highly...

Purpose: I am a huge techy/geek who loves gadgets and this is how I keep myself occupied so I don't do stupid things Goal: Sensor based modular monitoring (possibly automation) system that will allow for monitoring just a few tanks to entire fish rooms. Sensors will be driven by arduino...

Have you noticed that, after you change the water in your tank, it just sort of takes on a....sparkle-or something? Like that "healthy glow" on a beautiful woman's face when she's happy (sorry for the utterly chauvinistic example, but I AM a guy- and that came to mind quickly at 6:30AM...), an...

looking for a 48" aquarium, with a stand. not particular about whether the stand is wood or metal, or what it looks like, as long as it will hold the tank. nor do i really care if the tank is a 55, 75, or whatever other sizes happen to be 4' long. if you have lids/lights/etc. you're wanting to...

Seems like just about everything we do in aquarium keeping invloves some sort of "right of passage", or "barrier to entry" before you achieve exactly what you want to achieve, right? see this with crystal clarity with the "New Botanical" style aquariums we espouse so much here: A week or...

Does anyone know if that place is still there? I remember years ago it was a pretty good store but I haven't been in almost a decade. I looked it up but reviews I found seemed outdated and sounds like it went downhill at some point.

I'm selling a used tank that holds water. It comes with a heater, air pump, airstone and air line, and an Aqua Tech filter rated for 30-60 gallons. I have other aquariums and supplies for sale. I'm about 15 minutes away from where meetings are held.
