Aquarium Advice FINatic
Hello. Very new to fish keeping. I have four fancy guppies and one apple snail in a 6 gallon tank. Filter, no heater. Water temp is about 80 most of the time. Water changes every week. Parameters are good, though I noticed nitrates were high tonight (20ppm).
I have a planted tank. Lights on 8am - 10pm. I noticed green and brown spots on some of the rocks and an anubia last week. I've been told this diatom algae?
Two of my guppies have a white fuzz on them. One is acting weird, hanging out towards the top, not doing much. The other is more active, but has more white fuzz on him.
Any ideas? I very much want to help them, but have NO IDEA what to do. Remove them? Add salt? Run to PetSmart and get something to treat this?
Please help.
