Hey everyone. I have a freshwater 200 gallon tank which was originally made for salt water. I was wondering if I use the UV light, will it kill my good bacteria which consume the ammonia produced from waste. Any ideas?
My friend just added a coral in her tank. Its looking kind of weird though - anyone tell me what's wrong with it? The color or the way its tenticly thing is sticking out? Thanks!

Will this kill my fish? I removed the water and realized I had used all of my water conditioner the last time I did a water change. I didn't know what to do and a friend suggested I put tap water in until tomorrow. I'm worried that my fish won't make it until then.

I have never seen successful hatching or laying of eggs for that...
Hi!, I have been keeping freshwater fish for about 2 and a half years now. I have done the whole pirhana thing and i have had green spotted puffers. I know that salt water is a HUGE step up from freshwater but the vibrant colours and beautiful fish really made me eager to try and keep a pair of...
We've decided not to have any more fish as pets but we still want to get use out of our great aquarium. Any ideas of other aquarium-appropriate pets, or even non-pet ideas?

I just got a Betta fish today (and I didn't just buy everything at once and set it up) and I need help! I have a plant in the aquarium. Should it be real and small or fake and big because Betta fish like real plants but it makes it hard for the filter. I'm thinking of a small real plant. What's...

I'm planning on buying a 55 gallon tank next weekend. It's going to have live plants and driftwood. I am going to get Java fern, Java moss, Anubias, Anacharis, and Wisteria. If I used all those plant types, about how many of each should I get to have a moderately planted aquarium?
I know for...
