###Rules
* No selling. You can post RAOKs as crossposts from other subs only.
* No blogspam. You can post your personal site, YouTube channel, shop, etc. once per week only.
* No shortlinks or URL shorteners, excluding the sidebar.
* Use caution when posting a grossly overstocked tank. It's not going to fare well here.
* Don't be an ass.
* No rabble rousing. Yes, we know that half-gallon tank Walmart is selling as a Betta habitat is inhumane. Don't post about that kind of thing here for any reason.
* Businesses and retailers are allowed to post here, but the blog/sitespam rules still apply to them. Business/retailer accounts MUST be flaired as such.

**NOTE:** If your account is less than 7 days old, LINK submissions will be removed automatically.  Text submissions will not be affected.  Please message the mods for an exception.

**Please observe the following guidelines when asking for help:**

1\. **Search the sub for information first**; you might find exactly what you need.

2\. **Submit a text post**, and within it link any applicable pictures.

3\. **Include pictures not taken with a potato if at all possible** - actually seeing what you're talking about will help tremendously

4\. **Please include ALL of the following information**, as best as you can:

- Tank Size, including about how tall the tank is

- Light type (T5HO/NO, CFL, LED) and light brand

- Ballast brand (reflectors make a big difference in light distribution)

- Your photoperiod or schedule (when are you lights on, and when are they off?)

- Filtration including gallons per hour

- Substrate

- CO2 (and how it's distributed)

- Fertilization or dosing, if any

- Tank stock
