    Haven't got a clue on how to improve my aquarium.

    I'd advise against this idea , clowns should be in groups and will grow over 12 inches. When the angels grow they could potentially kill the tetra and out grow the tank, there's a high possibility of them not getting along with gourami in a tank this size also. I think some more tetra and maybe...

    Why is my water yellow

    You can try boiling the piece for a few hours, changing the water when it gets brown. This will help remove a lot of it if you're lucky. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Bamboo Shrimp Orange ?

    Mine change colour all the time, especially when moulting, from a pale yellowy green to a bright red or deep brown, one turned a shade of blue once too. I've read theories they change colour for camouflage, not sure how true it is though. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Filter feeding species.

    Hehe thanks for the input, but viper is another name for the african giant, I have two of them. There's way too many names for these shrimp =P

    Can anyone tell me what kind of stail this is?

    Just a normal pond snail, I have a few in mine, they eat algae and won't grow much bigger than that, population control is another issue =P

    Multiple bettas in a 5.5 gallon?

    They will only be ok during "potential" breeding time, anything before or after will probably result in death. Bettas don't form mating type bonds unfortunately, so I highly advise against it.

    10 g planted

    I have a dwarf in with 5 corries and he doesn't bother them at all. Like it's been said though depends on personality.

    Cameroon Armoured shrimp missing.

    They are great at hiding, mine can disappear for days, with them being so pale as well they're hard to spot. It will take a while for them to get the courage to come out in the open too, try having a look late at night.

    Filter feeding species.

    I believe Singapore shrimp is another name for bamboo shrimp, along with fan shrimp and wood shrimp. They are super cool to watch.

    Care and Transportation of my Fish!

    Sand is more preferable for Cory's, but gravel should be fine as long as it's not sharp.

    Questions and my theory?

    Maybe, I have betta flakes they have bits of brine shrimp in, think he was fed flakes in shop though. Been trying to get him to jump for worms atm, he's nearly there. Mines a mustard gass, has some slight fin curling though, think he was born with it but it gives him personality.

    Questions and my theory?

    Nice colour, bet he looks great when he flares. Mines the opposite he loves flakes over pellets and goes mad for dried blood worms
