yeah i got the hornwort cause its 2.98$ at my local fish store and i found it useful for babies to hide in it some float at the top so i can see it provides good use so i got like 4-8 bunches of it every time i get a chance to make sure the babies have a good place to hide and chill with me a...

Guppies are the best beginners fish to have in an aquarium i love to breed guppies 1/2 male/ female is how to start now depending on the size of the female it can take 3 to 4 weeks for them to give birth they dont need much just make sure you got a well planted tank or hiding spots cause...

the last picture is a female guppie the first one is two males rule of thumb when getting guppies is that for every 1 male there has to be two females cause they tend to hound the female for breeding so if you have two males and one female you might end up having a problem where the female...

i Love Eco Complete i switched to it like Ages i still have it in my tank holds all the vitamins a plant needs to grow my MTS love going way deep in it to eat all the sources of idk what is in there and come back up when i throw down fish flakes tho my Assassins snails might end up feasting on...

good thing about hornwort is that it dont root you can keep it floating and it will grow beyond belief tho fresh says it right if you dont keep it looking green and fresh the moment it starts to turn yellow its raining needles and fishes will end up trying to eat it thinking its a worms tho...

yeah but i got these plants today from an ick tank from the LFS tho its been in treatment for about 2 weeks i been told i am still a bit skeptic so i been cold water dipping it for 10 mins in running water tons of snails came off so i felt its a good sign that the dip is working right now i...

well if you def dont have any snails in the tank and its really hard to sex them they could be trying to eat each other its what they do at point of no food left they do on the other hand eat any left over food or algae but they prefer live food like helpless fry , snails, fish eggs if...

well i ended up getting the plants been rising them in cold water dipped it for like 10 mins in running water i did see lots of snails drop so i am guessing its a good thing and a good start will continue doing so for another 10 mins in a few but what are your takes on this method you think it...
