Welcome to Aquarium Dilemmas. This week we discuss our knowledge of collecting wild fish and botanicals for aquariums. We have fun as a family going out to the creek or the river looking for all kinds of secret little treasures. If you plan to go out wild collecting, you will need a few things to prepare, what to look for, and what you should do with your finds after you come home.

Welcome to Aquarium Dilemmas. This week's discussion is all about how to remove aquarium hard water buildup, ways to prevent it, and why it's there in the first place. One of the main deciding factors of which tropical freshwater fish we keep is if they can thrive in hard water.
