Hey i know this app is strictly reef tank based but is there anyone who wants some fresh water fish i cant exactly/havent been able to take care of very well who lives in the central florida area
fish are
pearl gourami x1
xray tetras x2
kuhli loachs x2-3 (cant actually tell how many there are)
pepper corydoras x4 (two babies)
bristlenose pleco x1
the corydoras and pleco are in pretty bad shape unfortunately and i really need someone to take care of them because i need to divert all my attention to my reef tank which is currently still failing despite everything (atp if any more of my fish die i may offer up all my animals and get a peacock mantis shrimp or something eventually instead)
Are these safe and okay to follow im starting a new tank but bigger but want to be sure these are okay to help me
Looking for advice! We just set up a second smaller tank (60gl) and now cannot decide what to put in it. We originally had plans to do a seahorse tank but after research, have decided NOT to go that direction.
We have 125g setup now with more peaceful fish. One option is to relocate all my small fish into the smaller tank and then put a snowflake eel into the 125 with my blue tang, scopas tang & foxface.
Or build a second stock list in the new tank. Water is cycling now so we have some time to build it out. Suggestions welcome! 😄
New to reef bay

Picked this little 9 gallon up over the weekend. What shall I put in it? Thinking maybe invertebrates and macros. Whatcha think?
This is my new setup 14 days in I’m trying to start new and get my tank back together! I still need to add the other rock structure, but any advice on starting a new setup with no fish yet would be greatly appreciated!
A good mantra for everyone who got their first tank for Christmas. Rushing to get too many fish doesn't allow your bacteria time to establish. Rushing to get corals before you've learned how to manage your water quality will cause coral problems. Rushing to buy loads of equipment means you might spend money you didn't need to or on gear that isn't right for you. Go slow, be patient, research, research research.
Tanks looking good today are these strips accurate guys?? I’m getting clownfish pretty soon just wanna be sure everything’s good
I’m new to reefing, I’ve had my 20 gallon fish tank for a couple months now. I want to add more things to it but I don’t know what I can put in there. Any help?
Looking for suggestions on beginner friendly fish and corals to start adding. Tank perimeters have been stable , tank is over a month old. I have not hit “the ugly stage” but I had a couple of very mature live rocks from day 1 in my tank (the 3 on the far left). I read with seasoned live rocks the ugly stage can be prevented or severely less (not sure it’s it’s true or not but not getting my hopes up) I do not have a clean up crew right now, LFS has said it’s to early to add as I don’t have any algae in my tank yet. I have had some orangey looking algae grow on the back of the plastic cover and on the output nozzle
Currently have:
2 black and white clown fish
1 green chromis
1 blue springer damsel
Corals:
2 toad stools
1 GSP
So I added my Fritz turbo to by 20gal it’s been running for 2and half weeks have a pair of clowns, and a neon dottyback for fish, 2 bumble bea snails and a nassarius snail for inverts. And lastly one acan coral, green clove polyp, and a frag of zoas, for coral. everything is doing but wondering when I can start having some hammer,torch,and frogspawn.
I’m in the middle of setting up my first saltwater reef tank, I don’t have water or anything and I’m not done scaping so that’s why there’s so Little Rock, but for a 15g, what snails should I get as a cleanup crew? What type of snails should I get, and how many should I get to keep the tank looking nice?
