    Is my guppy pregnant?

    see if the belly starts to get progressively bigger. you'll know for sure when it does b/c it's totally obvious! hopefully she is...they tend to breed easily. :)

    Red wag struggling

    hey kero, welcome to MFT! i would cut back on the water changes. 20-30% is alot specially on a smaller 5 gallon tank. the water changes could be stressing them out. it could be recovering from giving birth. just give it some time and leave her be so if she's stressed, you're not adding to it...

    Betta Tankmates

    my preference would be keeping the bettas in their own tank. but if you do want to keep them together, i would go with 7 to help disperse the attention. :)

    Betta Tank Mate Suggestions

    think your best bet is some small schooling fishes. there are many types of tetras out there besides the typical neon tetras. maybe the penguin tetras?

    African Dwarf Frog Behavior

    i would give it a little bit more time. he could be just acclimating to his new place. most fishes do that too so i assume a frog would too. keep us updated!

    Pregnant platy?

    haha. most likely is my guess. you'll find this being the issue with keeping live bearers in your tank. do you have a breeding floating tank for her?

    My NoPOX Experiment

    ended up mixing my own salt. it was a bit hard to find time to go to the LFS to buy water so to keep up on the water changes, i bought some salt and have been doing 15-20gallon water changes every few days. i also cleared up alot of algae growth in the sump and in the tank. having issues with...

    Question about 36 gallon tank

    video isn't showing up. just fyi. but it looks like you really put ALOT of thought into your tank. one thing you'll experience all the time is like...I should've done it that way instead. it happens. it usually likes to MTS (multiple tank syndrome too). haha. post a pic of your tank when you can!

    Fin Nipping in my new set up

    iv'e kept black widow tetras that were more on the aggressive side. unfortunately i think being a smaller tank doesn't give them enough spacing. you should either find a new home for the gourami...or hey...get a bigger tank! :)
