I have had a 10 gallon tank for about 4 months now...I have 5 adult guppies and 7 fry. I also have a little algae eating catfish...I plan on putting an extra filter in my 10 gallon to seed the filter and put that little filter cartridge in my big 55 gallon's filter to seed it and get the bacteria established. Any other suggestion (will have live plants) I want a tropical community tank...and am looking for stocking schemes that will work well with I think some neons, zebra danios, guppies and a betta...any other fish suggestions (no plecos please)

I found this tank on the internet and it can have saltwater in it. I have always wanted a saltwater tank and want to try this tank. The oly problem is that I cant find any type of fish that will live in a 3 gallon tank.

I've been cycling about 5 days now and my cured live rock is turning a dusty white color in many places. Is that a normal part of the cycle, or should I be concerned?

Our power goes out quite a bit and sometimes his water drops 10-20 degrees because his warmer lamp shuts off. He warms back up gradually, but will it hurt him over time?

I have a 4000 gal pond and i need help finding out where my leak is. I am loosing about one to two inches of water every 24 hours. It has one solid liner but the whole thing is filled with rocks. Does anyone know how I can go about finding this damn leak without draining/taking out all of the rock?

It is the only thing that seems to be off balance, though i do know that you can not accurately read the PH if the alkalinity is off.

I have a 55 gallon freshwater aquarium. There is this whitish moss stuff that keeps on growing all over it and I don't know how to get rid of it. It's not under much sunlight at all.

I have two betta fish, each living in a 2.5 gal tank. Each has a heater set at 78 degrees Fahrenheit, and no filter. I change the water and clean the tanks once a week. I bought these fish while I was living in the dorm. The tap water in the dorm had the perfect water parameters for my fish. However, I am now back at home, and I'm dealing with completely different water, which I'm having issues with. This is what I add to my water every time it's changed: Amquel+, NovAqua+, Proper pH 7.0, a small amount of aquarium salt (for disease prevention), and Melafix (for one of the fish, who has a tail biting habit, and is in the process of growing his tail back). And here are my current water parameters: Nitrate: 0 ppm, Nitrite: 0 ppm, GH: 0 ppm (too low! 75 ppm would be better), KH: 300 ppm (too high!), pH: 8.4 (also too high, due to the KH. I would prefer 7.0). So...how would I go about fixing this? Apparently the Proper pH 7.0 isn't working. So I need something else.

The ph is 7.1, the temp is around 77, and I have a bubbler and a filter system going. I think there may be too much current but I didnt see anything about the books that I'm reading. They seem fine otherwise...
