This only happens maybe 5 mins out of an hour they swim normal the rest of the time

Well they can't breed or anything I just never seen anything like it... I don't see anything on any fish I figured if they are weak the pictus would get them.... Just curious what the issue may be ... Kind of like them in there as long as they aren't harming anything or look like they are...

I do a 75% water change every 10 days my water parameters are always constant I test them before and after every change .... It's not constant flipping they both swim normal then will do that out of no where but I've never seen fish do this and they are surviving the school of pictus some how

Not sure if this will work here's a video https://youtu.be/WblLWBIWvpc

So I have a 55 gallon set up no plants it has about 20 glofish (tetras) and 6 pictus catfish. The prior 7 months everyone's been happy and healthy no issues. For the past 3-4 weeks I have 2 glofish that are acting weird... They flip head over tail and do cartwheels all over the tank. It seems...

Ok thanks just wanted to make sure ... No idea where they came from guess I'll leave them be

Well was a little shocked to find 5 of these just now. I noticed one sticking out of the gravel and after raking I found 4 more. I have a 55 gallon freshwater that has nothing but aquarium gravel and a few ceramic pieces nothing live at all. I've had it set up for 5 months with some glofish...

Well that's great.... Any idea how to get rid of them? My tank is an over stocked tank it houses about 30-40 nebula steel guppies (some being large females I read could do the job) and around 50 red rili shrimp which at the time I don't have a population issue but makes me wonder how many babies...

I found several of these in my tank what the heck are they!?!?! How do I get rid of them in my shrimp tank? Is this a Scud???

Well crap I don't have a LFS I usually order from pet solutions they are out of goldens any advice where I can find some online?

I have it set to 72 degrees now figured was a good median for everyone to be happy ... But thanks for the recommendations gives me somewhere to start my kids really seem to like the catfish so will definantly get a few more :)

Forgot the pic lol

Golden dojo loach if I remember correctly here's a pic I just took .... I'm just worried they may all stay at the bottom of the tank? I'm assuming a few more of each will be fine and get along together as long as there are hiding spots neither one look to good under T15 lighting (I think that's...

So I thought I did enough research guess I was wrong. I have a 60 gallon tank gravel minimal decor. I had it stocked with 15 Glo tetras and 15 Glo danios and 2 golden loaches. My friend asked if I could take her pictus catfish since she killed everything else so I said yes. I planned on getting...

So in my 20 gallon tank I have regular gravel a few anubias, Christmas moss and hornwart. It houses my red rili shrimp a few mystery snails and a few guppies. I notice every time I vacuum the gravel.... I always take great care to look for any baby shrimp and there are always tons of very small...

Yea I'm kicking myself now... I have to have fish shipped in and everything looked so good about it (the salt) as a disease deterrent and improving health I already added it ugh

Ok here's my issue my city water has high nitrates I just finished my fishless cycle on my 60 gallon and today did a 90% water change followed by a 30% with RO water (tested at 10ppm) and added my fish but my nitrate levels are still 40ppm on API freshwater. That led me to test my city water. I...

I forgot to add I don't think I can add any plants as I did put the recommended dosage of aquarium salt into my tank

Yep that's my tap water but my RO tests at 7.0 but haven't measured GH... I also have a water softener not sure what difference that makes

Does Matrix really work? I had about 3/4 of a 500 ml bottle left so I threw it in my filter between the sponge and carbon (hob filter)

Ok so apparently from the last time I tested my city water the amounts of nitrates in it has went up. It was testing between 10-20 on API but now is testing between 20-40. I have a RO system but it only pumps out 2 gallons per hour and I have a 60 gallon (with fish arriving today via FedEx) a 20...

What about interbreeding problems? I see the most cost effective way is to buy unsexed juvis.... If I buy 10 of 4 different "breeds" I guess you could say are they going to be popping out "mutt" fish? Lol or do most get eaten? I'm liking the peacocks and haps at the moment Also how much...

I decided even though I researched some I needed more time ... I have a 55 gallon I plan on setting up and cycling soon also. My choices for these type of fish would be limited to what I can buy online since there are no LFS within 2 hours of me. I'd like some recommendations from experienced...

So I have a 60 gallon that just may be about done with fishless cycling I keep reading mixed reviews and with all the information on cichlids out there, there's so many contridictions out there it's confusing. I'm aware of the 2 types and one needs the rocky environment ect. Along with over...

Ahh! 10 hours later after testing either 2 or 5 for nitrites after I added my ammonia .... My nitrites are 0!!!! Sorry had to share dosing it up before bed :)
