It's advertised that you can add straight to the tank. I heard tho that the bacteria in it may effect the current cycle idk how true it is.

I have a 20 gallon cycled with 20 pound bag already in. I bought another bag. My question is, do I have to rinse the substrate since my tank is already cycled, or is it fine just adding straight to tank?

I do have some clove bud oil. Maybe I should.

The thing is someone from her work had it for 2 years, and put it in the tank about a year ago. I have no idea where it came from.

If it is a common pleco, should I take it out? IDK what I would do with it tho.

I am pretty sure it is a pleco, but I need specifics. I am trying to stock my gf's works 26 gallon tank. She said this fish has been in there for over 2 years and he is only 4 inches. I thought a 3 year old pleco would be over 12".

Yeah hopefully he is just curious. No i cant think of one yet. I have named 10+ bettas before so i kind of exhausted my ideas lol. You got anything?

For the most part he is doing ok, he does flare up at the neons once in a while and darts to break up my 2 schools. The corys he ignores, and he gets uncomfortably close to the shrimp but does nothing. I have him roaming the tank with the platy in the isolation. She is moving to a new home...

I landed up buying a beautiful half moon betta. I let him sit in his cup changing water for 1 1/2 hours. Right away he snapped at my female platy so luckly I bought a breeder/ isolation tank. Should I keep the betta in there? I do have another home for the platy, she can be introduced to a 55g...

These shrimp are surprisingly big. I've heard both good and bad stuff about bettas and shrimp.

I also have a 50gallon aquaclear filter. Wouldnt this current be to strong?

I went to aqadvisor and this is what it said about bettas Warning: Betta [Male] is not recommended to be with Albino Cory - further research is highly recommended. Warning: Betta [Male] is not recommended to be with Ghost Shrimp - further research is highly recommended.

A male betta?

I currently have 3 albino corys 4 ghost shrimp 1 platy 6 harlequin 6 neon tetras I had a dwarf gourami, and I loved his colors, but I am thinking of getting something else. Anyone have suggestions?

Last month i changed my substrate, and cleaned my 20 gallon with vinegar. I Made sure to rinse for 30 minutes and dry in the sun. Meanwhile I had my fish in a big bucket with the heater airstone and filter. This WAS my current stock 1 Dwarf Gourami 6 neon tetras 6 harlequins 4 albino corys 4...

yes I have a 50gallon aquaclear

Will it be faster to just buy some Kent Marine spray? Will this kill the black algae?

I thought about doing this and I will. Thank you!:thumb::thanks:

ecosystem black sand. I have 2 airstones and an acrylic lid for the tank. So I will fill it near the top and drop a airstone in. Should I put in my heater as well?

Right now 1 dwarf gourmi 6 neon tetras 1 platy 4 albino corys 1 snail

Cool. Any advice on how to not have my fish stressed during this time? I only have a 5 gallon bucket.

Well vinegar seems safer. Can I throw in some of my ornaments? it is a 20 gallon

So I fill the tank up doing 90/10?

I am changing substrates, and i have black algae on the acrylic. What is the best way to clean the inside while not harming the fish later on?
