Can aquarium salt be used in a tank with plants and corydoras?

admin — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 00:00:38 +0000

Hi, all –

I’ve read that adding some freshwater aquarium salt to my tank (26 gallons) can have several benefits. However, I’ve also heard that the salt can damage plants and corydoras. Likewise, though, I’ve also heard that in lower concentrations, corys and plants can still do okay.

What’s your personal verdict? Can you provide a link or go into detail about personal experience on this? Thanks in advance!

Am I Leaving My Aquarium Light On Too Long?

admin — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 00:00:45 +0000

So I have a 10 gallon tank with a betta, a snail, and an amano shrimp. There is an unknown species of live plant and some dwarf hairgrass in there, too. So I’ve never really calculated how long I leave my aquarium light on for, but I found out I leave it on for, like, 16 hours a day. How long should I be leaving it on for? I have an excessive amount of algae growth and it’s not pretty.

I need to select fish and filters for a 55 gallon aquarium?

admin — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 12:00:46 +0000

I won a 55 gallon aquarium and stand and don’t know what to fill it with.
I’ve had smaller freshwater aquariums with various goldfish and guppies. I even had a couple of Piranhas.
I like the color and beauty of saltwater fish but don’t like all the upkeep required to the tank.
Are sharks hard to take care of and what kind of fish can be with them?
Do I need a fluval style canister for a 55? If I get one, do I still need a bio wheel?

how to care for aquarium plants?

admin — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 10:47:48 +0000

I have a 29 gallon aquarium and i planted bulb seeds in my tank. its been for weeks now and they have grown over 1 feet tall. my tank has 6 tiger barbs and i dont know how to care for them.

my ph is pretty high but its the right ph for tiger barbs to tolerate.

a leaf on one of the plants has reached the top of the water and is now like a floating lily.

Do i inject Co2?

what do i do about water changes? if the water goes down can the floating lily’s stem handle it? what do i do?

what about fertilizer?
im not sure if ph is a factor. i was on vacation for 5 days and the plant suddenly grew huge.

i think my grandpa left the light on all week.
i just found its Nymphaea stellata or the water lily right now its reddish

Should i take my aquarium plants out of the little buckets they came in?

admin — Tue, 13 Sep 2011 15:35:37 +0000

i got 2 new baby aquarium plants just now, and the roots are in little buckets, kind of like how trees are in the store. I put the plants in my tank, still in the buckets, just sitting on top of the gravel? Should I take them out of the buckets and bury them? or just bury them still in the buckets? They look a bit root-bound in the buckets….
If i’m supposed to take them out, how do I get them out without damaging the roots?

Should I leave my aquarium light on over-night?

admin — Sun, 11 Sep 2011 21:36:13 +0000

We just bought an aquarium for our boys and five gold-fish… the tank has a light in it (full-spectrum, according to the box) and we’re wondering if we should leave the light on over-night or not.
