There is a saying that GBR will harass or eat the shrimps (Cherry Red size). But from what I read, it seems to depend much on luck. Some get away with it, some rare the larger Yamato shrimp. I have balloon blue rams and I am in the progress of adding Cherry Reds to my tank too. Will find out...

Definitely ich. Ich spots are much smaller QT the fish quickly

Are your guppies all males? And yes, the overstock result is likely to be due to the mollies which may grow to a pretty large size

fast and accurate is always preferred. Maybe i should check my LFS for salifert after i exhaust my red-sea set.

red sea may be a good option. However, it takes a long time to react, like 15min........ I am thinking of changing over to API for a faster test

Both are good. I personally went with Ehiem as the LFSs near me have a very clear display of parts/media available. Which to get will very much depend on your budget. You could consider the Eheim 2076 if $$$ is not a concern. Else like molliwopp suggest, 2217. Eheim 2036 might be just under...

I am using a Ehiem 2032 and i put it in the cabinet under the tank. I do not hear anything from it and I presume that it means that it is ultra silent :) Ehiem classics can also be "multi pass" filter. It really depends on how many type/layers of media you put in it. Fluval may look to be...

I am in the process of stocking up my tank. Here's my tank parameters 1.9*1.3*1.5 ft (Where I live, tanks are measured in cm, so the odd looking measurements) Ehiem 2032 (pri) + Gex Slim L (back up) Ammonia: 0 Nitrite: 0 Nitrate: 2~4 pH: 7.4~7.6 Moderately planted tank with 3 small java ferns...

Does this look like a internal parasite? image | Flickr - Photo Sharing! My fish has been acting "tired" laying on the bottom of the tank yesterday. I isolated it to the hospital tank. Did treatment for nitrite poisoning. Than I notice something hanging out of it's anal today. It looked like...

Caliban, make sense too. Maybe i will stop dosing till the number drops to 0.5

Fantastic. I hope that morning will come very soon

Today is day 9 of my fishless cycle. I had started with fish food for a few days but the increase in Ammonia is minimal. So, I went to get Ammonium Bicarbonate (smelly powder) and brought the level up to 4ppm. Ammonia drop for 1 day from 4ppm to 2ppm. I dosed it up to 4ppm. The funny thing is...
