Well, thanks for the help guys, but all my little gups are dead. The only thing left alive are the nerite snails and they seem happy as a clam. I think I'm going to fix that algae problem and try adding some plants then get a different livestock. Thinking maybe rasboras. Again thanks for your help!

Thanks! I will give that a shot

So recently my fish have been dying off and tonight I found this on my intake sponge. If anyone knows what it is and how to gut it off of this it would be much appreciated!

Well that's too bad. Looking forward to the end product of this build!

Any progress with that stand?

If you find a strain you like, buy a trio or two and breed those in its own tank without any other fish or different strains. Then as the fry come out, any that grow up without the traits you want, sell/humanly kill them. Remove them from the gene pool as fast as possible. If you really...

Yes this happened to my tank. It was 2 weeks old and I took out the items and scrubbed them free from the stuff. I did a PWC and in about two weeks it was completely gone. I had the stuff all over the fake plants and gravel. I have not encountered any since.

Hello everyone! I hope your holidays were good. I was thinking about starting a outdoor summer pond. Obviously it's a little far away but can't hurt to prepare! I live in SoCal so it gets pretty warm here in the summer and I would like to know what plants would do well with guppies. I have...

Hello everyone. I would like to set up a shrimp breeding tank but would also like to keep guppies with them. I have - 2 HOB filters w/ sponge intake - 10 gal tank - about 15 guppies. -regular gravel - harder water I would like to know -what shrimp would be easiest to breed in these...

Thank you. I wanted to make sure that it won't leech anything that would be toxic.

Right here

So recently my old gravel vac came apart and I was wondering what could fix it. I know silicone would fix it but I don't want to have to put it back together. Does anyone know if duct tape would be ok? At most it will spend 1 1/2 minutes under water.

Oh sorry. Yes with the proper filtration you could have upwards of 14. My apologies for the misunderstanding.

I think that would be fine. Not much experience with those but sound ok

I would suggest starting with six. 3-3 each sex. They will reproduce and regulate the population. For plants use dwarf hair grass or something similar for fry and shrimp to live in. As long as you keep the water clean you could have up to 20 at a time.
