I should ask - which one should I exchange? Seems the PAR is better on the HD but I like the warmer tone of the other one. What’s better for a planted tank? https://support.aquaillumination.com/hc/en-us/articles/360019320853-What-are-the-Differences-between-the-Prime-Freshwater-and-Prime-HD-

Been troubleshooting this. After checking the website where I saw different spectrum for Prime Freshwater vs Prime HD. Even though the app shows both lights named freshwater, I checked the almost identical boxes and noticed the cooler tone one is HD. Back to the store tomorrow to get it...

We just got a pair of AI Prime lights for our freshwater tank. We have them configured identically but one light shows a warmer temp and the other is cooler. Tried changing the settings on the second one to match but it won’t get the same warmth. Even if I put them on manual and set the exact...

I googled. Result: inconclusive. ? but I am leaning toward guppy because of the tail.

Thanks Autumnsky! Good to know. Btw, do you know what breed of fry I got here?

Can I bump the post this way?

Wasn’t trying to breed anything but just saw some fry swimming around in the tank. Problem is, I don’t know what they are. Guppies or Zebra danios? There’s just two. Did the rest get eaten? The danios were attacking them, so I saved them into a net and floated them into a corner temporarily. I...

New tank cycling. Hardscape done. Added some stone and driftwood (after boiling and soaking). Added TSS+ to start cycle. Then today my hubby noticed these white particles moving on the surface of the driftwood. They're so tiny they look like bubbles or dust particles. But they move making small...

Thank you! I will look into those. Picked up some dwarf hairgrass to try.

We got a new 20 gallon kit. Added Fluval Stratum, some Seiryu stone, and Malaysian driftwood. Am cycling the tank right now. Trying to think of some low tech plant ideas. I don't want to mess with CO2 or swapping out lights at this time. (We are doing that with our 33 Fluval Flex and already...

He’s been ok the past couple of days but today, he’s staying at the filter, breathing by surface. Looking a little strange. He didn’t reach for food floating at surface. I got him to move a bit. He looked like he was struggling to swim and went back to the corner of the tank by filter and even...

Also can the gourami handle 86°?

Thanks for the quick response. Any treatment products recommended such as Paraguard etc?

Brought home a dwarf gourami today. Didn't notice this until added him to the tank and he stopped hiding. Is this ich? About 3 or 4 spots on each side. He was in the tank for about an hour before we noticed and quarantined him. If it is ich, what treatment is recommended?

Thanks everyone. Will see what we can find to replace. In the mean time at least the pH is steady.

We setup a new 32G tank with gravel. Water pH was 7.2. When we added rocks (sold as "lace rock" from LFS), the pH shot up to 8.4. To verify the rock as the cause, I put a fresh cup of RO water and tested the water before and after adding a small piece of rock and confirmed the pH went up by...

Novice to this, so please feel free to take other people's suggestions at higher value. We just went through cycling and just got our nitrates up this week. However, we were dealing with high pH and a non starting cycle (ammonia wouldn't drop at all) hence I was doing a lot of research. From...

Thanks so much!!

Was following up to response from @goatnad

Seems every node on this stem has new roots... I don't even know where to trim. How long can they go with roots hanging like that? Is there a time limit as to how soon after seeing roots one should cut / replant?

Yeah, not looking to add shrimp.

Ok will try that out

Ok thank you

Can I get a fish to eat it?

Thanks for the quick reply.... I am not sure what you mean where the leaves come out.... Do you mean any leave below any of the roots, and cut right at that edge above a leaf?
