Not sure I agree, but only because I have never had anyone tell me that before. It may not be "ideal" but really is any aquarium ideal compared to a natural habitat in the wild?

Are you being serious? A lot of people have 20gals. I also only had a problem with a group of corys, not consistent issues. When I originally setup the tank no one on here said anything about a 20gal not being suitable for fish...I have never heard such a thing.

uh yes its cycled lol. im not a noob haha.

ok cool, thanks. thats kinda what I had been thinking.

Cool thanks guys. My params are good, always maintained the tank well and tested regularly. Yes I was thinking bristlenose :)

Hello, Have a 20 gal high, aqua clear 50 filter. My tank has been up and running for about a year. Started out with some corys, neons and harlequin rasboras. Did not have a lot of luck with corys, as I only have 1 of 5 left. 1 neon has died and no rasboras have died. The corys could have been...

Nope. doesnt look like your ammonia is totally at 0 and you should have more nitrates..

Those fish will grow! They won't stay small for long. A 5gal tank is way to small for anything other than betta in my opinion. I would skip the 10gal too and get AT LEAST a 20g.

ok i did 50% they seem back to normal. water still cloudy. 2 of my cories have died so i did what rivercats said treat with types of med.

I am treating my tank with maracyn and maracyn 2, today was the 2nd day. my water got cloudy today and then right now i just looked and all the fish are at the top gasping except for the cories!!!! do i do a water change?

any idea? rivercats recommended maracyn 1 + 2. should i quarantine only the cories? treat the whole tank? thoughts? they both had reddish spots on their sides. also...they both died shortly after i woke up. so they seemed fine last night then boom dead overnight. im worried because now...

Thanks, yes i am worried. api freshwater master kit.

can you help me? i have another thread for the cories. another died this morning!!!! :( i need help!!!!!

Another was dead this morning!!! Please help me! I dont know what is wrong...
