tank

I am located in Reisterstown and I’d like to get $350 for the tank and everything i have with it. Comes with a nicrew and a Bluetooth fluval light. It has a 55 gallon sump and comes with a jebao dcp-4000 pump. I’d like to downsize my freshwater tanks and go into more saltwater. Will not make...

Hello there, I am new to this forum and excited to be a part of the Capital Cichlids community. I have recently developed a deep interest in keeping South American Cichlids and could use some guidance from those with more experience. I am planning to set up a new tank specifically for a few...

Hey Guys, I would like to share with you the picture of my 2 tropheus colonies. I hope you enjoy it. Tropheus Moorii Namansi Tropheus Moorii Katoto

for those of you with large red devils, how do you have your tanks set up? im getting ready to pull all my fake plants and small driftwood and just leave my large piece of driftwood. i may even remove all my sand since he makes such a mess with it. i think he might get bored if i take it out...

A question we receive frequently around here is, "How do you keep your water 'clean', in addition to water changes, yet still keep the 'tint' you rave about some much?" The answer is coming. But first, let's consider a couple of things.(click to read more)

Who's going to the CCY June 25 meeting? Starts at 2 PM. William Peragine will be speaking on starting a planted tank. I call him the Apisto-whisperer because of his success with Apistos and other dwarf cichlids :) Unfortunately, I'm not going to be able to make it (too many kids events that...

Got the thumbs up to move my 180g from the fishroom to the basement under one condition: that it looks nice. That means no brown fish that hide all of the time. Or bichirs. Or other hobbyist fish. I was down the mental road of setting it up as a Lake Malawi tank...haven't done one of...

Never kept africans (seriously) before... What size tank would be ideal for a display for some peacocks, lemon jake, yellow labs, red empress etc.? I have a 40B empty but I assume that is way to small... I see all you guys and really want to get into this cichlid stuff... breeding etc. Where...

I like a good mix of botanicals...I really do. And of course, we offer a big variety of them! However, one of the things I realized is that it's never great to have your tank filled with too many different botanicals. Why? Well, while it's true that in nature, on first examination, you'll see...

I do daily WC on my aquarium and the most time consuming part is siphoning the water out using 25 feet Python solely based on difference in height. I wanted to know if I can just put the regular submerged pump on the outlet of the siphon ( which is not submerged in water) and power pump it...

Well, it's been 6 years in the planning (ever since we moved into our house 6 years ago). We moved in with just a lowly 20g long. I upgraded to a 40g long right away, but it still looked tiny on that wall... We need a monster tank. Fast forward 5 years later. I trolled craigslist for about...

Took out the gravel as it was getting too difficult to clean at times. Switched to Caribsea instant aquarium sand. What a difference.

I posted my new 55 and the stand I built recently and it didn't take long to decide the bottom shelf was really best suited for a second tank. I just added this sweet 30 long underneath and it fits like a glove. What do you guys think.

Thanks for posting a video of the fun! Matt GsOPFJGJPUg

Did a wc today and installed my new light fixture, I love it! Kinda hard to see with a phone pic that I put a back ground on the tank. In addition to that I got a jager heater, new air pump, gang valve as well as some other accessories. Ive also ordered some cool Driftwood, fourite and sand. So...

About 2 weeks ago now my angelfish passed away from issues related to old age (he was 9+ years old). So, now I have a 55G that while it still has a handful of tetra's and corydoras is fairly empty looking. While I am not opposed to picking up a new angelfish, I would like to try something...

Hi All, Finally got discus from Han's and I am loving them so far. I got 2 red turquoise and 2 Blue snakeskins. This time around I am planning to document their growth more closely and share it with you from time to time. For starters, I must recommend Han's to anyone who is willing to get...

Just wanted to share my 90 gallon Discus tank. This is my current set up but I swap fish every now and then. Thanks for looking.

Love to get some feedback... Where is the most appropriate or effective area to drill on a 180 gallon fish tank for a sump set up; top back, underneath side, where? I've been watching too many diy youtube videos and seeing too many options which has me confused. please HELP and tell me...
