Density does play a role, so does pressure and heat. If you have a nice thick Styrofoam container on your heated or apply pressure depending on the variables it will leak eventually

Just posting So others will not do what I did. I needed to empty my tanks and place in something while our floors were being installed. I chose styrofoam. Bad choice. Styrofoam absorbs water and can leak! I found this out the hard way! Saved the fish but will never use styrofoam to put water in.

I would name him ☀️ Sunny

Recently I added a Seiryu rock to my aquarium. I had boiled the rock first for 20 minutes, then when cool added it to my aquarium. About three days later I thought I was seeing a little bit of foam at least different bubbling at the top of the water. So then I did some research on the stone and...

Accidentally feed my fish food with copper in it to my baby shrimp tank this am!!! Going to do a water change. Any idea on the prognosis of my mistake![emoji37]

Thanks, I can’t remember the substrate as I used 3 or 4 different ones. I watched the green machine YouTube videos then ordered that type of substrate. They were quite expensive is what I remember. It grew plants really well.

Finally, conditions were right and I have a hatch of cherry shrimp. I started out with four females and one male and now have over 70 babies. They all seem to be thriving and it’s fun to watch them as a scurry about.

New food. No itching noted.

Does anyone know what to use to disinfect fishnets when used in injected tanks? So far I’ve used bleach and then washed really good and then put primer on them. But it occurred to me Perhaps there is a disinfectant solution I could be using for my nets and other equipment that comes in contact...

Five days Ago, I noticed my beta was on the bottom of the tank quite listless. I looked at him to see if he had anything obvious no Ich, no bulging eyes, no bloated abdomen. Fortunately I have a 10 gallon hospital tank. I put him in there and treated with Ick-X, added tetracycline, and General...

I know that some Beta fish Are not compatible in a community tank. When I got my brother he was just a little guy and so I put some Amber tetra in the tank with him and he did just fine. So then I added a couple of Kuhli loaches and he left them alone two, so I added a couple of Cory catfish and...

My tank has been overrun by little snails that came in on plants the population kept getting bigger and bigger, so it was time to take action. It’s a 20 gallon long tank and so I added for assassin snails to the tank. I took out my nerite snails so they wouldn’t be eaten. It may be a long...

Yes I bought 5. They were transported just fine but when I got home one was already dead and they were all dead by the next morning. I called the fish store and all of their caries were dead too. Will find a different source. My original question was about adding O2 to transport. Since they are...

Did my morning head count of my fish and noticed one of my rainbow missing. Search the tank and found him caught under a stump. I jiggled the stump and out he came he had lodged his head in a hole. He scraped pretty good on top and so as a preventative Measure I treated him with erythromycin...

I have a question about these little guys. When buying cories is it harmful to add pure oxygen to the bag for transport? My trip home is 35 miles.

First and foremost asking consumer questions to find out if what fish the are buying are appropriate selections. Too often people buy fish not knowing anything about them and when they get home putting them in the tank and they die.. My first question to anybody would be has your tank cycled? I...

I’m not sure what these tiny round white things are. Fish eggs or amano shrimp eggs? I have rainbow fish, Congo longtail tetras and albino Congo tetras, some silvertip Tetris and some cherry barbs and some Cory catfish. Quite a sprinkling of these, just not sure what I’m looking at any thoughts?

Little Hebrosis Cory hanging out together in my nano tank. These guys are fun to watch!

Thanks!��

This tank is evolving started about a year ago and I’m finally getting a handle on plant growth. My fish have done real well we’ve been with me from the beginning, added a new Finnex plant 24/7 light LED and I am seeing some improvement in my plants. The fish seem to like it as there is no...

20 gal long ALL nano fish

It’s been up now for a couple of months. Starting to get some green string algae but really haven’t seen any brown diatoms at this point. I have decreased the lighting time and also added four cherry shrimp, one amano shrimp, and a Nerite snail. I am trying to find the right balance so to...

Thanks ��
