Hi, I have a male red eared slider and a female Ouachita map turtle. The res is 3-4 inches shell length, and the map is 3 inches shell length. Both of them are living in a 125 gallon high tech planted tank. They don't at all bother my fish, but they do nibble on and dig up plants for fun. I...
I setup my 125 gallon tank about 2 months ago. Filter was transferred over from my 150 to keep beneficial bacteria. I just finished the scape, what do you all think?
I'm looking for rocks and wood. Nothing specific, although I love lava rock. Where's a great place to purchase, that isn't overpriced? Or anyone you know that has some.
has anyone ever done an order there? what is a ballpark guess on their shipping charges?
i was about to place an order, but they don't provide a shipping quote until after i give my credit card info, which i'm leery of. i'm only planning on ordering two things for a grand total of $60, so if the...
Ok obviously I'm a Noob and by my other Noob posts lol. Anyway I have "Aquascaped" my tank and just wanted to see what you guys thought? Given the numerous years of experience you all have. Here it is any feedback would be great if you think it would be better a different way tell me I know it's...
Hello everyone, as everyone knows I love rocks and am not into plants much, but that is mostly b/c I had a discouraging time with plants as a beginning aquarist. I think if I had had this video I would have been much more successful. Even as an experienced aquarist, this video taught me much...
Does anyone out there have experience using cut sections of bamboo as part of their aquascaping? Any negative ramifications as it decomposes(if it does decompose!)? Want to create a grove with cut sections in corners.
So like Franny, I am doing a tank for GWAPA's Dutch aquascaping contest. Here is a shot of it as I get started. After the photo, I reworked the unbalanced substrate at the front and trimmed several of the plants down to shape out the areas. Still havent figured out what plant I want to use in...
Here are some pictures of my tank right now. I wasn't going to use driftwood but I wanted to add a bit more height and contrast to my tank.
The Marselia Quadrifolia carpet has been growing like crazy but I want to clean it up somehow. One of my favorite color combinations is red and white. I'm...
I just bought a new 75 gallon, 4' x 18" x 20" tank and I'm asking for input... live vicariously for a moment and tell me how you'd do it :)
I haven't decided on much yet. I know it'll be a community tank, sand bottom, 108W of lights, 1 Eheim 2217 to start, but everything else is kinda...
SO AFTER GETTING TO GO TO THE AQUAFEST, WHICH WAS A BLAST:jumpy:, I GRABBED SOME DRIFTWOOD PIECES THAT IVE BEEN WANTING TO GET TO CHANGE UP MY 120 GALLON. I WAS GOING FOR THE RIVER LOOK WITH LARGER PIECES OF WOOD AND LESS ROCKS. I LEFT SOME AS THESE WERE USED AS TERRITORIES AND HIDEOUTS. WHAT DO...
We have some plants from the aquascape demo at Aquafest 2007:
HC (Hemianthus challitrichoides)
Downoi (Pogostemon helferi)
Blyxa japonica
Plus, as always, lots and lots of other stuff...
