Overfeeding . The second and last picture is food for sure . The detritus worms being more noticeable would be another indication of overfeeding ..

Carbin Doser for the win ! Digital so no EOT dump .. Incredibly accurate fine tunning possible .:thumb:

They are best in a tank by themselves for breeding . It does not need to be large . 5 g works fine for me . I use a terra cotta pot bottom [ the water tray] for the rams to breed on since they like pits .. The hardness of the water will determine if the eggs can become fertile . Too hard and no...

Rams lay eggs . You have a female there for sure . Do you have a male to go with her ? Rams are considered pretty difficult to breed AND raise .. She looks healthy and happy IMO .

How much weight for rocks in a 72 ? This is a 10g ; I don't think you need to worry ? My 135 years ago ^^I had maybe 700-800 lbs of rock in that one !^^

Nice 120 ! Well done :thumb: You should understand how hard clowns are to count ! They must be ghost in a such a well planted tank !

Look on AquaBid to find quality fish from breeders and sellers .

I keep the Denison at a school of 8-14 . I am around 9-10 now . They last 5-6 years on average for me . When I hit 8 I go get a group of 6 or so . Much like the clown loaches the Denisons love when there are more .. They take to new comers better then most fish I have owned besides the clowns ...

My 180g. Clown loaches ,EBA and Denison barbs .

Nice tank Arthur . Good to see you posting ..:thumb:

The mandarin and marine betta/ commet .

You want Levamisole HCI for the worm . Fenbendazole only works if eaten . Too often the infected fish won't eat enough to get properly dosed so medicated food is hit or miss. Here is info and where to get Levamisole HCI ; Levamisole, Flatworm Exit active ingredient Flubendazole & other chemicals...

I have no experience with axolotls but know that dose is shrimp safe ? You only need to treat tank with one dose usually for only 2-3 days . I would think about moving the rept. out for that short time .. Change water on tank after treatment [large water change as % changed is % med will be...

Looks like Hydra IMO . Fenbendazole will knock them out safely . Mix 1 gram of 22% with 200 ml water . This is the base solution . Then use 20ml of the solution for very 10g of tank .. The fenbendazole can be found at box pet stores in dog section going under the name Pancur ...

Go with RID ICH PLUS , not the herbal junk . Malachite green and formalin are the best combo . Ich Know Your Enemy ; https://web.archive.org/web/20160313202109/http://skepticalaquarist.com/ichthyophthirius

I am not sure if it needs to be circulated but I use an airstone or powerhead and heater in my barrels . I placed a T in my line so I run 2 barrels on their own float switch .

Yea I got my float valves from BRS and maybe a another place . My RO fills multiple Brute containers .. Next you will need to see what the pressure is . I have the pump and converted my 5 stage 75GPD to a 150 by adding a second TFC . BRS has a kit for that .You definitely need pump if you go up...

DI is last . Water in to first canister and waste comes from the TFC[ RO filter on top ] and the good water also comes from the TFC .There should be two lines coming from the top filter ..The black is waste the blue is good [I think ].. I have the BRS 5 stage chloramine deluxe with an extra...

Look like cory eggs IMO.. Did you do a water change before the eggs . For some cories that is all it takes !

The fifth stage would be DI and require another canister be installed after the TFC. If you just replace the first canister you will have a 4 stage RO unit without DI . Nothing wrong with that IMO if you are using for freshwater . If the unit is for marine then just get the DI canister and...

Sometimes I wonder what I know .. Merry Christmas and Happy New Years Alex . Good to hear voices from the past ,even if they are not real [ you know ,,imaginary like ]....:eek:

Get a TDS meter and never test pH again . pH is a misleading number often associated with hardness. My tap is 7.6 and 350 TDS I know others with 8.1 pH and a lower TDS then mine . TDS is the best way to manage your water hardness. You can mix some RO with your tap to get the perfect TDS. I breed...

I've seen this before . It could be your purigen is exhausted depending on how many times you have re charged it . For me once red it did not re charge to bright white or last as long again as it did before .
