I'm currently decorating my tank for the holidays, and I was wondering if anyone else does the same thing. <3

Hey everyone! I joined my school paper as the monthly animal article writer and it starts in September. Because I have a betta, I was asked to write about bettas for the paper. I haven't written it yet, but basically I just was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on specific things I should...

I just got a betta fish to replace my old last week and I am worried that he is not adapting well to the new environment. He has a 2.5-5 gallon tank ( I can't remember, but it's smaller than 10 gallons). He stays up at the top of the tank and doesn't really swim around a lot. I'm just worried...

How can one play with a betta or make him not just sitting around in his tank? My one betta, all he does is sit on his leaf or go by the heater..I think hes depressed and I try to make him happy or swim around more. But he hasn't or rarely does. Now everytime I clean his tank, I do move the...

Unfortunately, my betta, Atticus, passed away last week. I just purchased a new baby from AquaBid and I'm currently waiting for him to get here. Since I don't know why my previous fish died, I completely cleaned the tank and it's sitting empty to make sure everything is decontaminated. I got rid...

Hello everyone, I decided to actually make this cause I was lurking around this area, bored to death, and I'm pretty sure Dawn is sick of me, haha. My online name is Fawn Enasni, and I congratulate anyone who realizes what Enasni means. I'm 13 years old and I swear I have murdered anyone who...

Hi, For the past four months my betta has been losing his fins. At first I thought that he had finrot so I treated him with aquarium salt and his fins began to grow back. A fortnight later, i noticed that part of his fins had gone missing again, so i retreated him. eventually i got really...

Hi y'all. I have a hexagon 20 gallon that I've thought about filling in the future. I would like to have snails, guppies, and something else.

I grabbed a 55 gal the other day at Petco since they have that $1 per gallon sale going on. I haven't set it up yet (still need to find a place for it) but it'll probably be ready to stock in the summertime. Until then I have plenty of time to think and research about the fish I can put in...

I rescaped my 29 gallon into a NPT wannabe. It has the dirt and some lucky bamboo growing out of the top. Currently I have 1 female betta and intend to add 4 more. Also in that tank are 2 Neon Tetras, was seven but 5 have went poof for some reason. I WILL get 5 more Neons. But even then, the...

Hey guys, I'm going to be setting up a 10 gallon tank soon and my 2.5 Mini-Bow will be empty. Any ideas for easy-to-care-for pets? I'm not really interested in any other types of fish (tetras, etc.). I'm thinking of some type of crab. Maybe a hermit? Or are there any crabs that live in water...

Hi all, When I get my betta, I'm hoping to name him a Thai name to heed his origins. Any suggestions that mean something (I was thinking 'fire', or 'sun') would be helpful. But since it would be selfish to open a forum like this and use it for my benefit only, I want everyone to post their...
