I caught it and put it in a bowl with just enough water to stay on the side.

I was looking to my aquarium today and noticed a spot on one of my neons. Any idea what it could be? Thank you!

You know you have to dechlorinate the water BEFORE putting it in the tank, not after.

You could try a treatment with JBL Algol. I had a diatome explosion in my planted tank. I used it. No problems with the fish and plants. After the treatment, I put active carbon in my filter and striped my water of silicates for a while. Never had them since.

I should mention that the tank is almost 1 year old, the water change was made 5 days ago, nothing was changed in the fish diet.

I was watching her for a while, as I thought she was pregnant, but today I found her like in the photo. Any ideas what it's happening and if I can help her anyway? Thank you!

Thank you so much for your insight. I decided to watch their numbers and keep it low.

Hi, guys. This little guys appeared in my tank for some time. It is a fw medium planted tank. Would you keep them or try to get rid of them? And if it is the second choice, what would you do? Thank you!

I second the citric acid and baking soda method. It's reliable and constant. And you have visual confirmation when it's about to end and needs replacement. And if the pressure builds up to much, the reaction can be stopped until the it's back in the green zone. And a lot less messier.

I have a light made from leds as KingOfDiy instructions. There are some things you need to know. Cheap LEDS strips are bad. In 3 months since the setup they reduced their light to almost a third of the initial power. Number one priority-buy good LEDS that have at least 20.000 hours guaranteed...

I have an Oceanfree hang on filter on my aquarium. It has a sponge where the water passes from the suction section to the filter mediums section and 2 sponges in each compartiment of filters. The sponges are getting clogged and this reduces the amount of filtered water. I clean the filter every...

This is the status after the water change and cleaning 6 hours ago (see the photos). The glass it has a brown deposit, very hard to scrape. Thank you all for your suggestions and opinions so far.

Trust me... after 5 months I know how the crap of my fish looks like. That is not crap.

It's JBL Aquabasis Plus with Manado on top.

And this photos are made after cleaning it up 2 days ago.

I don't think it's detritus. I have the aquarium for 5 months. It had more fish in the beginning and it never had this stuff. This only started to build up in the last two months. The water changes are between 30-50%, as I have to get this stuff out. Usually were 15-25%.

I have a 13g freshwater aquarium with 10 barbs and some cleaners. In the photos there is a brownish-gray build-up that piles up and is all over the tank. I do weekly waterchanges and clean this as good as I can, but it "grows" back. What can I do to get rid of this? Thank you!
