    Help with Snail infestation

    I am thinking that might be the best idea... The Assassin Snails I am actually guilty of UNDERFEEDING, like I am ashamed to admit how many days I have gone not feeding my little guys (when i had some lol). I think it MIGHT have been the plants breaking down. I have soooooo many that some...

    Help with Snail infestation

    So... I had a tank disaster... mostly of my own doing BUT I got a plant (what is it btw?) to flower so I didn't want to do anything and tank EXPLODED with snails. Also I just moved to a house and am resetting my tank. BUT I am SURE the snails have laid eggs in the sand and on the rock. So as...

    Algae/BGA? Hair Algae?

    The hair algae is on the bottom of the picture. It IS hair algae correct? Is there a relatively easy way to remove it from this spot?

    Hmm, if that's the case, should I get the 24" one? Truthfully, when it comes to aquarium lighting, I know ZERO about LED's and plants.

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B019YXYO1E/ref=cm_cr_srp_mb_bdcrb_top?ie=UTF8&th=1&psc=1 I'm actually leaning towards this one. I want black #1. And some of the reviews made it sound like if you got the full 24" unit, it would need to sit above the hood and I don't want that. I want one that can...

    The fixture itself is shot unfortunately. It shorted out and I'm not comfortable using it anymore. It may have just been a falty bulb but once my boss saw that, she was concerned.

    I am looking for slow growth on what I THINK is Anubias. Unfortunately the tank gets a little sun, but there is not much of a way around it.

    Not sure why I can't get it to turn but here is the picture. Sorry it took so long, tank is at work and I don't want to be here on my day off lol. The tank is 24" wide, by 12" deep, by about 16.6" tall.

    New Lighting help

    I posted a while ago about my bulb and fixture possibly having a fault. Well I convinced my boss to pay for a new fixture due to a fire hazard in the office. I have NO idea about LED bulbs. HEck the last time I bought a fixture the most important thing was WPG lol. Is this what I need? I do...

    Lighting help.

    If I don't need a new hood can I get some advice on a new light for the tank. Work is buying it so the limit is like $30-$40 unfortunately. The good news is, I have mostly just anubis plants, no fertz and no CO2

    Tired of being a slum lord...

    Right now I have the thread algae, and some regular green algae that grows on the glass that everyone seems to get. I KNOW I don't do enough PWC's which I am sure has some to do with it. Still working on trying to find a happy medium. :banghead: With EI the plant growth was almost...

    Tired of being a slum lord...

    I am 99% sure it is 29 Gallon (about 110 Liters) I will be honest I have NO idea the mL of the cap. TBH I am pretty new at trying to do this the right way, I used to do the EI method and it is VERY wasteful lol. I want the plants to grow a little slower in this tank honestly. I prefer a...

    Tired of being a slum lord...

    I am 99% sure it is the Wallichi. I don't remember for sure TBH. I got it because it had some red in it lol. My favorite plant in there is the Anubas nano on top of the lava rock to the right. It has been thru multiple tank changes and a couple disasters lol. But anyway on to your...

    Tired of being a slum lord...

    I have never treated with H2O2. How to u spot treat, with a syringe? It unfortunately is in lots of places :-( Also, I wad a lot of what I thought was some weird growth but it's actually roots growing up through the sand. Any way to avoid that or do I just cut them off?

    So, I've been really busy and haven't really had the time to rearrang, but I DID get some new inhabitants.

    Tired of being a slum lord...

    I appreciate the advice. I'm going to get a couple fish possibly this weekend, but next weekend for sure if not :-) I think I get your basic idea tho. I'm not sold on all of the plants tbh but I'm going to do some small rearranging at least. This was taken 10/2. I moved the little anubias back...

    This is actually from 9/9 jus a couple days after I put in the new canister filter. It made a HUGE difference and I LOVE the quietness! I have a new pic this weekend after I gravel vac it. Coming along well, I salvaged just about all the plants and have some trimming to do. The amount of...
