I would like to stay freshwater if that is an option but otherwise brackish would be no problem. I would like to keep Echidna rhodochilus or g. tyle. The leopard freshwatermoray...

    Corner filter

    Recently saw this vid and loved how to filter basically disappeared. I have a 20 long and want to do the exact same so my main question is could I put some bio balls behind it? That way I could just use some from my other filters and cycle instantly, maybe add a small air stone underneath the...

    What brackish fish can also live in hardwater communities

    I was doing some reading, and saw knight gobies can live in hardwater freshwater tanks, with rainbowfish and tanganikan cichlids, and will even breed in freshwater. Are their any other brackish fish that can live in high ph and gh tanks? (I know the majority wont do well)

    Any idea what this rock is?!??

    I bought this at feeders supply on an impulse buy because I want to use it for my 20 gallon long brackish setup for a puffer and gobies but I didn't think about how rocks affect the water. My tap is neutral ph and fairly soft and puffers and gobies need higher ph and hardness so could I use this?

    Brackish setup

    I'm getting a 20 long tank, aragonite sand and crushed coral for my brackish setup, my ph is neutral from tap so how much coral would be nessesary to bring it up around 7.7 8 ish range? Also can I use freshwater test kit or do I need saltwater? Thanks!

    How many gobies?

    I want to get a 20 gallon long brackish setup with rock decor and sand and crushed coral for substrate, the whole idea was to get a figure 8 puffer but I want at least a little variety so bumblebee gobys are what I found would be best so how many do you think I could have? I was gonna say at...
