Hey guys I am a newbie to the aquarium world.
We just purchased a 12 gal Fluval Edge, filled it and conditioned and have had it running for about a week now.
We purchased a heater and have added 3 little fish - cant remember the name but it was soemthing like Playtos - does that sound right?
Anyways I also added in some live plants which now some of them have short green hairs growing off them is this algae and what can i add to help make this go away? I hear people talking about shrimp and snails but i am not sure?
The water looks good slightly cloudy but my hubby doesnt think it looks cloudy so that could just be me being a perfectionist and wanting everything just perfect
I also have the heat set at approx 78-79 is this good?
Any suggestions on what else i can add?
Me and my kids are loving this set up and want to add more fishies but not sure how soon we should add to the 3 little guys we already have?
Any advice would be great!
Thanks!
