I would maybe bump up that heat to 78F And Corys do better in packs. Buy a bigger tank and get more [emoji56] Here’s a video for some more info https://youtu.be/UPfeBA0QGMk

Is “shoaling” the word your looking for?

I’m not saying your doing something wrong but.. it happens. I use test strips with no issues. Here’s a how to video if you wanna take a look and compare your method https://youtu.be/XfJ2PhSc-4w

Just do a couple 50 percent water changes spread out over couple day span

That bigger tank will be appreciated

Some tap waters have 2ppm coming right from the faucet!

Totally agree with you!

Maybe this will help a bit.. quick google search: “Here is a list of some of the most common guppy tank mates: Livebearers (mollies, platies, swords) Gourami Fish Cory catfish Rasboras Most Tetra Fish Small Species Plecos Cherry Shrimp Oto Catfish” source: https://guppy-fish.com/tank-mates/

This is crazy.. I’m rooting for him!

Ever thought about just jump starting the cycle with a used sponge filter from your local fish store? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Picture 1 is a molly fish though... right?!

Looks like nothing abnormal to me....

Bichirs always eat things THEY ARE NOT SUPPOSE TO... most commonly small rocks! A lot of times it’s a waiting game to see if they pass it or die.. I’ve lost a couple to this. Is your tank all sand? Could also be a tumor.. maybe this video will help some on ideal tank setup...

A 40g is on the small side.. I would do a sh well dweller tank! Lots of sand and shells!

I would buy some generic 30ppi foam pad (for ponds and such) and just scrub it manually with your hands! I use this foam for tons of stuff! Here is a link: https://amzn.to/2Mf6Mj0
