I did test after all was said and done and everything came back normal...ammonia and nitrites were at 0 and nitrates were under 20...I was running an aquaclear 70 so there was plenty of surface agitation.

awhile back I had a school of nine panda corys in my 29 gallon and all but 3 died. I don't recall any obvious signs of sickness...they just died one by one. Im wondering if it had to do with oxygen levels? it was a well established planted tank but it didn't have an airstone. Id like to try...

Hi... Sorry for the late reply... I ended up treating them in my qt tank with the fungus guard. I lost one panda but the rest all seem to be fine.My parameters are 0 ammonia 0 nitrite 10ish nitrate Hete is a pic of one of them... He seems to be scratching himself against the gravel quite a bit...

Ok im pretty sure that my school of pandas have caught some fungus. The reason I said pretty sure is that it hasn't spread to my other fish. Over the past few days it hasnt grown much on the pandas but i moved the school to my qt tank and am debating whether or not to medicate them because they...

Lol. 1.No co2 needed. 2.Yeah in my experience low light plants will do fine in medium lighting. 3. I bought my timer at target for like 5 bucks. Its just a regular indoors timer.

I bought a hagen glo 1x24 inch HO fixture off amazon. I know that they had a 36 inch as well. It was very affordable for a t5 ho light. Im currently running the single 24 inch on my 29 with low to medium light. No co2.

Yeah, when i get some i'll make a profile about it or something.

Wow, thanks! I've never seen Staurogyne repens before and I really like it! I also like that crypt parva as well.

Thanks! Im gonna add a black background and fish are going to be added next week. Im hoping for the swords the wisteria to fill in eventually.

Hey everybody, here is my new 29 gallon planted. Do you guys have any suggestions to make it better? It really seems as though it's missing something. Hagen AC 70 Hagen glo t5ho 1x24 No co2 Thanks!!!

Thanks! I've been scared by a couple of horror stories online. Good to know its working for you!

Will they work together in a moderately planted 29 gallon? Thanks

Don't worry about it! If he's stressed he would be hiding in a dark spot or something. He will be just fine for a week and a half. Good luck!
