The betta could be attacking the guppies I know some bettas will go after guppies mistaking them for other bettas and some tetras love fin nipping.

I have never heard about automatic feeders but at my petco and Walmart they sell this big chunk of fish food that you plop in a tank and it should last fish about a week they just come up and bite it when they are hungry.

They eat the left over fish food. Shrimp aren't very picky. You can actually see them eating fish flakes that land on the floor. If you want to make natural food for them you could leave the tank on for a while and algae will slowly grow.

That's what they like to do [emoji4]. Since they are new they will be very shy and scared but over time they will become more comfortable . When I bought mine they stayed hidden and me just passing by the tank would scare them, and they would stick tightly together no matter what. Now after a...

If it is ich you should remove him form the tank and put him in a Quarantine tank before he infects the other fish. Other than that the guy above me gave the best advice.

If you can't afford a bigger tank which I'm not trying to bash your or anything for it because I know they are pretty expensive I would try and relocate them. You can easily find someone with a big enough tank if you post it in Craigslist or maybe a forum for your local city or town.

Unless you have moved them into brackish water or salt water I don't think he or she is trying to lay an egg as Amano shrimp only breed in salt or brackish water I am pretty sure. He is probably molting which would be neat to see since I have never seen them actually do it. That is my input I'm...

I mean there aren't a lot of options with a tank that size you could use it as a grow out tank maybe? Get some baby fish and let them grow out in it until they get to big and transfer them to a new tank. A lot of fish are schooling fish and you simply can't have enough of them in a 2.5 gallon to...

You will need a really big tank and most of those fish are really territorial and aggressive I would definitely say no unless you can get a really really big tank

It looks like algae maybe get some shrimp in there.

Either the betta or neon tetras. The betta because almost if not all betta have a unique personality and neons because of their color

That looks exactly like my betta!!

You could look up dustins fish tank and look up how to make a ghetto fish tank and there's a thing on there which he shows you how to fix cracks it's not the best looking thing but it works

I am thinking about starting a neon only tank, how many can I have in the 10 gallon? I may add some shrimp in there but that's it. I am gonna cycle the tank for at least 3 weeks before adding the fish in.

I have a goldfish that I've had for around 2 years now and he's grown a fair amount and I see that she keeps growing and I don't know what to do, I want to give her a better home before she gets too big but no one can take her. Any suggestions on what to do?

No I I am talking about amano shrimp or Japanese algae eating shrimp, and yes I bought mine for 3$

Where do you guys live? If you guys get well water then using tap water without water conditioner should be fine

It could work but you should definitely put the peaceful fish in there first. Let them establish a territory and then put in the betta and I wold recommend slowly introducing him. Make sure there are plenty of places for the other fishes to hide. Avoid tetras as tetras are notorious fin nippers...

If you want an algae eater I would say amano shrimp but you have to buy a lot to put a dent in algae especially in a tank your size

Seems like you may have overstocked your tank

You should be able to buy the already hatched that's how I bought mine.

The problem is the goldifsh clearly and the only solution is to remove it from the tank. The goldfish shouldn't be in there in the first place since it lives in cold water and the other fish are tropical fish and require a heater. The only solution I see is removing the goldfish and giving him a...

I heard that you shouldn't really have the light for more than 8 hours a day. But I would suggest Amano shrimp in large quantities as they love eating algae and can really go to town on the algae. Good luck I hope you solve the problem soon.

How many ghost shrimp can I have in a 10 gallon tank that has already been set up and has 1 platy 1 white skirt tetra and a couple black neon tetras in it?

I remember my cousin had a aquarium and it was always relaxing watching them so I decided to get one myself.
