Since these guys are in Betta Bowls, there is no bubbler or agitation so they'll have to go up to the surface. I just posted a couple of pictures of Mom's...
NOT!!! Sorry Len, you're wrong this time. The guy that made the post went into detail about how to construct the lights for incandescent or will type of...
OK. I was under the impression you were in need of lighting. What kind of lighting do you currently have? Look at the bulbs and there should be some kind of...
That's probably where her algae is coming from on the glass (over feeding), but hopefully this will help, if not it's just going to cause an early death for a...
Oh I 2nd that notion! I found a dead snail when I was cleaning a week ago because I could smell something funky and new it was a dead snail. Still not quite...
I saw the photos. He doesn't look happy to me. I think he needs at least a 10 gal. tank and a girlfriend. Then he won't be wasting his horny bubbles. Harry ...
Have no fear, Donna, he's in a gallon-ish "bowl" (versus a "tank" which implies filters, etc.) He's in a studio apartment, not locked in a closet. I'm...
Holy cow! Yes, LOTS of pictures. The purple is VERY eye-catching and stands out beautifully against the green of the plants. What do you suggest to harden...
I used crushed coral (like the kind you get for substrate for salt water aquariums), it came free with the 125 gallon tank so I have TONS of it to use,...
Tee hee, yeah, that was his "tough guy" look. He did NOT like the flash on my camera. HAHAHAHA! No, no girlfriend for him. Crowntails are particularly...
No fish harassing her, she just seemed freaked out by the space. She just huddled in the corner for the longest time and once she figured out how to escape...
But you have to remember, that in the wild, yes they are often found in shallow waters but not always, as they also live in slow moving streams and rivers.......

Do you have females or male Bettas? I know there are always exceptions to the rule but it seems that five males in a 30G might get a little rambunctious. I...
Lenny, If the males have been together since they were hatched, then there is a very good possibility that they will live together peaceably. However, should...
Actually, it's 2 males, 3 females and I bought them all within a week and basically added the 2 boys on the same day. They flared and postured, but it was all...
As an old lady who grew up with mercury thermometers and lots of fevers: the shaking was not to get rid of air bubbles, but to shake the mercury back down...
I remember those. My mom wouldn't send us to school if we had a temperature. So, stuck the thermometer in my hot tea. She said your going to school because you...
We haven't talked about this in many months but I just got an automated email alert that this may be on the schedule for the Senate on Nov. 9, 2009 and for the...
Hi Lenny, Here's the answers to your questions: 1. How many fish? - 2 guppies, 2 GloFish, 3 platies (one is a baby/few months old) 2. How often do you do...
I have a hard light brown (tanish) substance covering the tube of my aquarium heater... is this sediment? I was wondering if that's what's causing my high Ph...
Reply to 5. first - OK. A big step is keeping the sun out. That is a BIG part of the algae problem. Natural light is good for plants but in nature, there's...
I cannot say for sure, but it may be diatoms. Try scraping it off with a single edge razor blade. Just watch your fingers, as the curved surface of the heater...
How long have you had your tank set up? Do you have this "brown substance) on the gravel, other decorations, glass, etc? Give us more details about your tank....
If it's diatoms, a brush will work. They wipe off easily. _____ From: AquaticLife@yahoogroups.com [mailto:AquaticLife@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Steve...
