    Would Neon Tetra's be ok in 15g Column tank?

    I would love these actually! So hearing that makes me excited, but I'm guessing I'll have to order them, since I've never heard of them until I did extensive research.

    Would Neon Tetra's be ok in 15g Column tank?

    I've had some guppies in there and it wasn't a great experience for the same reason. I am trying to really just find a nano sized schooling fish that I could keep maybe 5-6 of, before I give up and just go with a single male Betta or Dwarf Gourami. Would Ember tetra's be any better given they...

    Stocking options for 15g Column Tank

    I am deeply considering dwarf gourami or male betta as a center piece with maybe 2-3 Pygmy Corydoras. My main question with the Corydoras being a more social fish, would 2-3 be ok? Also with the tank being a column shape, I am concerned about having fish that need a lot of swim space and...

    Stocking options for 15g Column Tank

    Love the tank, looks beautiful! I thought about Pea Puffers myself, but I was worried about them grabbing the shrimp. However on the plus side I love the fact that they take care of snail populations, great suggestion thanks! I will keep it in mind based on your experiences.

    Stocking options for 15g Column Tank

    So right off the bat, I am very well aware that many or even most stocking options will not work in this tank. In the future I will someday upgrade to a larger tank, but for now this is what I have and what I would like to stock. Thanks! So my cycled freshwater tank is 13.5" square by 23" high...

    Moving Betta in and out of temporary hospital tank.

    Its moderate, only being at the very tip of the fins. He apparently has been getting them sliced a bit on possibly the filter intake, since I have live plants and no tank mates expect for shrimp in 15 gallons. If you recommend 50% water change and salt I will give that a shot, I just don't have...

    Moving Betta in and out of temporary hospital tank.

    So recently, I picked up some BettaFix to help my Betta get over his Fin Rot. However I was curious if it's possible to place him in a small bowl, use the drops, and let him swim around for a bit, then after 10 minutes or more take him out and place him back into the original tank. So really the...

    Wasting Disease has claimed my tank

    I knew something was going on, but I couldn't tell what it was until it was pretty much too late. So I've been trying to treat the disease with API General Cure in hopes of saving the other fish, but it seems the disease is still running rampant despite my best efforts, claiming a fish this...

    Frustrated, want to give up.

    Thank you both for your input, I have taken a breather and reminded myself that those fish in there are my responsibility and that they will always need me. I am incredibly thankful that I did as much research as I did going into this and didn't just buy fish that were above my difficulty level...

    Frustrated, want to give up.

    Thank you for the encouraging response and I'm sorry that happened to you. Anyways here are my recent readings. I did have a bit of a spike in Nitrates on this reading, but I did add new fish not too long ago. I was going to say my tank was cycled, because of my readings being consistent...

    Frustrated, want to give up.

    :banghead: So, I am at the breaking point with my 15g guppy tank. Its constantly one thing after another and it all started from the day I pretty much got my tank and got it cycled (stats in profile).... So I lose about 2 guppies to my filter intake right out of the gate, no clue why it...

    How Many Guppies for 15g?

    I currently have an all male guppy tank and have no interest in breeding of any kind. That said, I currently keep 14 Guppies in my 15g tank and I can't help but feel as though maybe 1-5 more would be ok? I feel more comfortable with my tank and routine as well as confident, that this new...

    Questions about feeding guppies

    Thank you both! I will move to feeding them everyday and on the day I do my water change, I will let them forage. Also I will definitely poke around my local pet store for the Hikari which you both recommended and mix that up with the flake food. Thanks again guys!

    Questions about feeding guppies
