Their staple is flakes but I also do freeze dried blood worms for variety. They're endlers though so I don't know how well they'd take anything sinking.

To clarify the title I am referring to a single fish in my tank that is not getting nearly as much food as the others. They're all the same species however this one in particular is the smallest. Up until now it hasn't been as much of a concern because he has still been getting a bit of food...

Thanks for all the help! I'll be sure to read that article next time I have the time and before I actually add anything to the tank.

What exactly is the relationship between gh and ph? Does a higher gh mean higher ph or...? Does kh effect it at all other than keeping ph more stable?

Will this method effect PH though?

I have an established 5.5G with a few endler's livebearers in it. These fish, in the wild, prefer harder and more basic water. They've been doing quite well over the months but I would like to give them the best life I can. Because my house has a water softener, the water coming out of the taps...

It's still cycling somewhat so everything's not perfect but it's beginning to settle down Sent from my LG-H812 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

This isn't my endler, mine wont stay still long enough to take a decent pic, the black area on the side however is exactly the same on mine. Like I said, I don't think it's disease, I'm just curious as to what it is and why it seems to change shape all the time. Again, sorry I'm new at this...

I know the black spot is supposed to be there. Every picture of an endler I've seen has had it. It just changes shape and prominence quite frequently. If I had to guess I'd say it is some kind of internal organ although what I don't know. However it could be stress related. I'm not sure. Thanks...

Last week I picked up a few endlers. I noticed that they all have these black "lines" on the sides of their bodies. Normally I would have thought that this would be just natural colouration but over the past week I've noticed that these lines tend to change shape and prominence. In fact I just...

Advice for someone who has them is exactly what I want though so thanks! Any one have any other ideas for calcium intake? Sent from my LG-H812 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Just a quick update, for the past couple days my waters been pretty murky (i presume from bacteria forming but not 100%). Happy to say that today the waters looking crystal clear. Ph is a little high (any fish friendly at home fixes?) but other than that everything is green across the board...

Awesome thanks for the advice. All the sources I've heard from say that around 5 would be good in that size tank, I'm just curious if the shrimp would overload it or not. Sent from my LG-H812 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Hey all. My name is Reiley and I just got my first tank. Its 5 gal. (although if possible I would have loved to go larger) and is currently cycling. I grew up around aquariums constantly and have always wanted my own. I'm excited to get it stocked once it's ready! Thanks, I look forward to...

I recently got a new 5 gal. tank (would have loved to go larger but I'm limited by space and budget and it's my first tank) and am currently in the process of cycling. Once that's finished however I'd like to get some endlers. My question is how many endlers would you recommend putting in the...
