For anyone with a Micron (and for John!), if you want to open up the filter cartridge, just jam a small flathead screwdriver by the two notches on one side of the cartridge container and the back will pop right out. I filled it up with some Siporax Mini from my previous filter.

I had a 20 gallon that failed due to white spot disease. The only survivors were 5 shrimp 2 of which died due to stress of moving to a small plastic container and two others died because I didn’t have a small enough filter. (I used the 20 gallon one and one shrimp got into the filter and the other got in but died from stress) I now have a single survivor. I am trying a 5 gallon because I seem to be good at shrimp and it allows for trying fish again in the future.

Did the preset heater have an automatic turn off? There are many preset ones that don't making them rather useless if you live somewhere that gets high temperatures in summer. You're better off with ones where you can ajust the temperatures and with an auto shut off. I can't really recommend a brand as I live in Australia and we have many brands that are different to people on the states, but if you read the box you'll find all the information you need.

My idea of a nano tank is, with the exception of my clean up team, everything in my 90 gallon planted tank is all my fish are nano, less than 2cm in size. With such a small bio load and the low tech plants doing most of the filtering the tank takes care of itself most of the time. Regular water checks, water top ups and 30% water change once a month. Happy fish, happy me. 🤓

I hate that they preset them with only one setting, I keep my tanks at about 73° to 74°, I make sure I don’t have anything that’s real picky about that heat but tetras and guppies and shrimp and snails and all of my plants do fine with it. I think the stickers are cool, if you’ve got plants back there that will hide it that much more or stones, same thing, especially if I was laying it horizontally near the bottom. I’ve got a big stack of black rocks for the shrimp and that one sticker would actually go really well with it. 😂😂 Especially for nano tanks, I can’t believe somebody hasn’t invented an all in one, a tiny filter like that with an integrated heater. Just a tiny heater with a little sponge filter and pump on it, or even air powered.

I,ve got 2 questions . i,m wanting to have some plants that will be planted directly into the substrate on one half of the tank and plants on the other half wont need wont need the special first layer of substrate . How much should i buy of the good stuff for the planted half ?and secondly my nano tank has got a standard plastic lid on it, what light do you suggest ? because the lights that attatch to the walls of the tank wont really work , I don't think unless i cut it up a bit .I don.t know what it is in inches but the tank dimensions in mm are L450 W200 H250 .

I’ve just gotten into fish keeping and have 3 angelfish in a 140L (40? gallon) tank, but I’ve got a question; The smallest of the 3 is pretty aggressive to the other 2, they’re too young to breed (at least their ‘tubes’ aren’t visible), I’ve made sure to balance the right amount of food so they don’t have to compete, and not over feeding as there’s nothing left after 2-3 mins. As far as I’m aware and from what I’ve read the tank is an appropriate size for the 3 of them aswell Is there anything else I could be doing to try to curb his aggression? Or is it possible that the fish is just a d*ck? The other 2 fish don’t seem to overly mind, as he’s quite a bit smaller than them, but I wouldn’t want them to be quietly stressing out

I've just never been a big tank person. I do own a 75 gallon, I've had it for years, but it's never seen water. My plan is to finally set that one up next year after our big move.

After the grief of losing pet after pet, I decided I would get a Betta for my desk. I figured if I lost the poor fish I wouldn’t be a broken man like I have experienced in the past. So ... meaning I am a beginner and having fun diving through all the info. But I have a bit of frustration too. I have 3 concerns around filters for a small (5.3 gallon) aquarium. 1) it should be fully submersible - 2) it should not create strong currents in the small space that would be detrimental to a Betta - 3) it should be quiet. I can find filters that fulfill one or two of the requirements. I’m looking for suggestions from the experts or the community at large. Thanks!

Never understood why you'd design a filter with the impeller before the filter. Much less likely to get sand in the impeller if it has to get past a filter first.

How about "The Jolly Roger" and if I'm not mistaken it's down in "Davy Jones' Locker". Yes this is old term but what can I say other than I've been around for a while.

I want to know about how the noise affects the fish. I bought a nano tank for my desk and the pump it came with is so loud. I'm wondering if my fish has a headache because I feel like I would have one!

I know this comment is super late but im just looking for some help. I was wondering if I could get away with the 10 watt heater in my 5 gal or should i use the 20 watt? And do you know the best place where I can purchase one? Thanks

I just set up a whole new 3.5 g betta tank and put the 10w Aqueon heater in it. The 48hrs waters were anywhere between 78-82 degrees which is fair to me, but the next day I notice it has gotten to 88 degrees in my tank by the heater and 84 farthest away. This was a brand new heater from petco and I have read other reviews of similar issues. Is my heater bad?

i have a 15 gallon fluval flex which has a good filter built in and a space for the heater. Both are hiden from sight so it is great. And I have a 4 gallon biorb which I think isn't the best filter in the world. I have a betta in there ... no heater 🥴

the idea of heating tanks is great....it all seems to just depend on different variables ....how much water body ...where the tank rests etc...personally I only heat 2 tanks but I could see wanting to heat small tanks....i guess...smaller water body and maybe more drastic temp swings ......its all up to the hobbyist 😊🤙

Or of the fish like warm water. During the summer its easily warm enough in my place to not heat the water unless i turn on the ac. During the winter though i like it cooler in my house. Also, if you like to keep your house at a constant temp around 70 some fish like it warmer, around 80. I agree, though, ambient heat or a few heated tanks can maintain the temp of a few others. Had a salt and a cichlid tank kept a little under 80. They heated everything else.
