I had blue green algae in my tank which I treated with hydrogen peroxide 9 days ago. The water is clear now but what is this growth on my driftwood?

Substrate is river sand. No ferts yet. I use plants like hygrophila polysperma which don't need much attention

I forgot to mention that the water stinks really bad

Nah the current is pretty much non existent. There is a DIY biofilter in there.

What do you think about using hydrogen peroxide? I have already done full water change 2 weeks ago. That didn't help either

Here are a few Pics

This is a 33 gallon tank with river sand as substrate. I have good lighting that stays on for 8 hours and its near a window which gets strong sunlight for about 3 hours. I have low Co2 consuming plants in there so I don't use CO2 and just do partial water changes every 2 days. The tank was set...

Also someone on this forum told me that if many males are housed together(about 6 or more) the aggression is spread among them and they don't fight. I confirmed this later on. This is the very reason that you won't see males fight in the pet stores cause there are just so many of them stuffed in...

I have 2 male blue opaline gouramis, 1 female opaline gourami and 5 female blue gourami. Yet the 2 males fight. They were in a 200 gallon with dollars and goldfish and still they fought. Now I have separated them and they have 3 females each with them.

They are all females. The picture doesn't show their dorsal fins clearly but they look like females.

I got each of them 3 females but they were still fighting. So I kept them in separate tanks. One of them formed a bubble nest a few days ago. Now I have hundreds of fry swimming around [emoji33]

Looks good man

They are in my 33 gallon planted tank at the moment

Been about 2-3 days since they hatched. They have started to swim freely 14 hours ago. What do I feed them? I do not have access to infusoria and brine shrimp. I have heard we can feed them boiled egg yolk. What are your thoughts on that? Also can I feed them powdered pellets or bloodworms?

I did that. Turns out it's because it's a newly set up tank so the substrate has a lot of excess nutrients in it

Is this brown algae? And how do I remove whatever it is. It's a fuzzy brown layer on my river sand substrate. The tank is a 33 gallon planted tank with 2 opaline gouramis. The water looks dirty because i tried to remove that stuff using a net and moved the sand too much.

I have a 33 gallon planted tank. It has 2 blue opaline gouramis in it. There is 1 biofilter inside. I have the following plants- in the tank- Salvinia minima - (10 Plants) Amazon Sword Plant - (2 Plants)* Cabomba caroliniana - (3 Plants)* Hygrophila polysperma 'Rosanervig' - (3 Plants)* Mayaca...

Yes that is true, but it would take a while to develop that huge a deformity. Going from straight to completely bent in a week doesn't sound right

Not genetic. He says it was straight a week ago

Is it a female? Might have given birth and that's the reason. Either way scoliosis is incurable

Thankyou

Was it straight earlier?

Definitely preggo. Wouldn't place her in the net. That stresses out the fish and might lead to premature birth or the guppy not giving birth and dying. Let her give birth in the tank itself. Scoop out the babies and place them in the net later. Keep them there untill they are big enough to not...

Got them for very cheap at a local store. Was wondering what variety are they.

I personally like to hand breed them
