I had one of the species for quite a few years. It only was active at night. It was an efficient algae eater. Most folks love cory cats once they have them....
Well it's official my house has a fungal infection, It's in my plant pots. It's on the surface of all of my tanks. (2 fish 1 turtle) my wife is getting...
I thank you all for responding to my questions as far as replacing my filter. I took some time reading the manual for the aquaclear on the makers website also....
Hello. I'm in the process of setting up my 55 gallon tank and had a few questions. It turns out most of my equimpment is no longer working. Well this tank...
You don't need that big of a heater. I have a 140 gallon fish tank, and I am using two 200w heaters. As a matter of fact, I could just use one 200w heater. The...
H'lo, Don't know what your problem is overall, but the way you describe removing the "..large Wardley Fish food junk", sounds like you allow much too much...
H'lo, I've read that you should cause a turnover of 5 or 6 times the aquarium-water-volume-per-hour. The heaters and pumps/filter-outflow/intakes should be...
With regard to the heaters, get 2 100-150 watt heaters. This is for the protection of your fishes. While heaters are more reliable today, there is still the...

This group is incredible. The original question was the clown pleco. There are at least 20 different plecos available They can go up to 14" depending on the...
I agree with Steve, for longer tanks it is good to have 2 lower wattage
heater than one large one. As for the under gravel filter (ugf), if it
works for you,...
don't know where this guy gets his info or his attitude, but chinese algae eaters do eat algae and will clean a tank much faster than an sae, but there is a...
They seem to cause more problems then their worth. Live plants don't do well and toxic gas can build up under the filter when it is released all inhabitants...
Dear Paul, I didn't really think I had an "attitude" just a CAE that doesn't do anything. I guess mine is just lazy. As far as putting a true SAE up against a...
I didn't know you could compare a CAE to an SAE. CAE's are full of
false advertising. They are from Thailand, not China, and they are
omnivores, not algae...

Sorry about that, you are right. They do eat algae, so technically they
are algae eaters. Mollies are also algae eaters, they cleaned my tank in a
few days....
