Anyone ever kept African dwarf frogs? They keep dying on me, and I can't figure out why.
Debating whether its worth getting any more, but then the remaining one I have would be lonely, and based on previous experience, stop eating (and, also based on previous experience, when they stop eating, it's really hard to get them to start eating again).

    How many fish tanks do you have: two/three (does a pond count as a tank?)
    Types of fish that you have: Damsels, Green Spotted Puffer fish, Goby, Angelfish, Goldfish
    Your fishs' names: I don't really name my fish all that often, but the angelfish are named Tabris and Rei
    How long have you had fish: I've had the Damsels for almost 5 years, the Puffer fish for a year, the Angels for 6 months, and the pond's goldfish have been there for about 10 years. I'm not too sure if any of the original goldfish are there, or if it's just their offspring there now. I have no idea how long the Goby has been here, I don't even remember getting him.

Hello everyone, I currently have 7 harlequin rasboras in my 20 gallon tall, and everything been running fine with them for a few months, although the tank looks really empty, and I can't decide if I should add more fish (and if so, any suggestions?), or just leave it as is. I have looked at other fish to add but I can't decide what would be best.

We go with more harlequins since they look awesome in a big school and you can definitely fit more than 7 in a 20 gallon.
After that you could either do a school of cories or something else. Depends what you like.

I agree with Lonin. Definetly add some more harlequins, like 7 more or so. ^^ Any other fish you add would depend on what temperature you keep the water at and generally do you have very soft water or harder water (and obviously the tank size rules out many bigger fish). Harlequins are pretty nice fish, like not nippy etc., so they don't really limit any of your options.

So I keep reading that endler pregnancys last about 22-24 days... I assumed I had at least one already pregnant female, so I was kind expecting and hoping fry already as I bought the fish early this month, but no fry so far. :/ The largest female is getting very round though, so we shall see... Shame though if they end up being offspring of my two males as it would have been good to have some other genetics as well added to my little group. Also one of the mystery babies, which is a male, is maturing enough to start coloring up and he's an endler after all. :D I was little concerned he'd be hybrid, but so far it's looking promising that he's an endler. Other babies are growing kinda slow though, so I'm little concerned as the previous baby I raised grew quite fast...
Can we pretend that the airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now...

Do I need to post the form to post here?

If I do, I’ll post it when I can.

I’ve got my second betta today.
My first one was a petsmart purchase and he was sick as all mess. Fin rot and something wrong with his gills.

He was a white dragon scale betta. Now I have a seemingly more heathy fish as of today.

I also have a snail in the same tank c:
