thanks everyone! he's still hiding, but i'll see how it goes :)

thank you :) yeah, they finally ate a little yesterday, so maybe they are just taking a while to adjust. thanks so much for your advice!

hi everyone, so i recently stocked my empty tank with 5 ember tetras and a very small (he'll probably grow a tiny bit more) dwarf honey gourami. i plan on adding a few more ember tetras as well. unfortunately, what seems to be happening is that my fish are always hiding in the back of the tank...

thanks!! i do have an empty 5 gallon that could serve as a backup tank, however i'm leaning towards just playing it safe with one of my other two options so that i can just have a peaceful community :)

hi! so that title is confusing, but i will explain! ;) my 10 gallon is empty and i've decided that i want to start fresh with a community-ish tank! here's my stock that i'm sure about •school of 8-12 ember tetras AND •1 centerpiece fish my question is about the centerpiece fish. the options...

i asked about them to my lfs, they don't have them unfortunately :( but thanks for the suggestion!

unfortunately, my lfs does not have them :( and a dwarf gourami i believe would be just a tad bit crammed in a 10 gallon, but i really like honey gouramis! :)

thanks :) those are the two i'm deciding between. it honestly will come down to which one my lfs has! i've decided my final stock will be a school of 8-12 ember tetras and one honey gourami/peacock gudgeon. i can't wait to go to my lfs!!

hey everyone! so i've decided that i want to start fresh with my 10 gallon tank! after much thought, i think the general idea of what i want is one centerpiece fish and a school of 5-7 small schooling fish. i know there are many different options to this. what i'm basically asking for is for...

thank you so much to everyone answering!!!! i love the suggestions and i'm looking up all of those fish that i don't know of! :)

i'm quite a beginner, i just wanted to say i'm sorry about your little goldie, and good luck! :)

hey everyone! i'm taking a break from studying for my final exams to write this post ;) so i have an empty cycled 10 gallon freshwater tank, and i was wondering what i could put into it. i'll make lists of what i definitely don't want and what i've been considering below. thanks in advance to...

he is out of that water now and is being treated, i hope it works. they only fed him 3 pellets each day, but for some reason he didn't eat them and they were sitting on the bottom of the tank.

i don't know what happened. he was in a 5 gallon tank, and the water was fine except i don't know what the ammonia was. as i said above, i was not home. i tested it right before i left and everything was fine, but i was not home and i don't know what the water is now. he's not in the tank anymore

someone please help me i'm freaking out. i was gone for two days and all of my pets were under the care of my father and sister. well i came home to my favorite fish, my betta zeus, lying not moving next to the filter and gasping. i immediately put him in a 1 gallon hospital bowl and checked him...

thank you, looks like you're the only one out of two forums who cared to reply, lol! :)

anyone care to answer...? :(

hey everyone! i had a question about my fairly new dt betta, pax. when i received him, he was pure pearly white, which definitely stood out to me. but now, after little more than a week, he is starting to get quite a few gray scales on both sides of his body, and a grayish splotch on his anal...

actually, pax was flaring at the diamond tetras in that picture above, because they keep bothering him :( i don't think he would be alright in there with those fish, but if i decide not to divide the ten gallon and just put him in there, maybe i can keep my catfish. i just would have to get more...

okay, just to be clear so that everyone knows, i am NOT getting rid of my betta:) i only wish to give the mollies, tetras, and cory catfish to a good home so that i can put my betta in the tank that they are in currently. the tank is too small for them anyways, so i really want them to go to a...

i'm aware :) that's why i posted. i'll check that out, that sounds like a good idea!

this is my little baby, the new betta, pax :) i love him so much!!

hey everyone! so i have a bit of an issue. i recently acquired a beautiful delta tail betta, but he was not planned at all. i had to take him because he would have been flushed by someone who did not want him. FLUSHED!!!!!! ridiculous people! he's gorgeous too! anyways, i was like "i'll take...

thanks for all of the help everyone! you know what's funny... i had an awesome "lightbulbish" moment last night! if i made a mesh divider, i could actually get two more male bettas!! i absolutely love them, and i really would love to have two more! there's this one betta at my lfs that i've had...

thanks for the reply! i should've mentioned, i'm not sure about getting simply another male betta, because i would just put one of the bettas i have now into the ten gallon if i did that. :) ugh, i'm terrible at making decisions! now i'm debating between doing the sorority or dividing my 10...
