Rummies

[hanziie]

I need help ASAP i got some new rummies rather large compared to my last and ive noticed today that their getting a little aggresive towards my three mollies and betta my two female mollies and bettea are staying pretty low to the floor of the tank ive only noticed this because one of my female mollies is not moving off the floor for long periods of time! So i need help with my rummies and my female mollie

I'd do a water change, test the water. Add silk or real plants so there are hiding areas on the back and sides.

Rummies ? Rummynose Tetras ??

 

[Barliman]

How many did you get? And what size tank is it?

 

[hanziie]

I fed them first and it seemed that they were just hangery i did also do a water change i have 11 rummy nose tetra

 

[hanziie]

Sorry and its a 200l tank

If they've calmed down, I wouldn't worry: Rummies are fairly peaceful.

 

[hanziie]

They all seem pretty happy now got some plants for the tank today so theirs extra coverage

Seperate out your stem plants. So the leaves aren't quite touching. Otherwise the bottom 1/2 won't get any light.

Looks good!

Yep. I learned that lesson the hard way: bare lower stems that eventually rot away.
