I picked up a 45 gallon tank that a neighbor no longer wanted. I am trying to decide what type of set up that I would like. I am considering discus fish. I live in Medfield, and have hard alkaline water. I would rather not get into trying to change the water chemistry. I wanted to get your opinion o...

I was thinking of adding an Electric Yellow Lab to my 75 gal community tank. It currently houses a blood red parrot, 3 large angel fish, 5 large Boesemani Rainbows that run the tank, a gold gourami, a brislte nose pleco and 1 small Lamprologous shell dweller.

I wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions on other fish to add, and the number of fish I could eventau...

I guess you are saying that there is no quick way to get the tank clean.
Can the biowheels be reused or do I need to replace them?

Also, should I let the tank go through a cycle before adding the fish from my existing tank?
thanks
