I love spreadsheets. But I use so many at work so I need a break!! Lol You can see graphics and run reports comparing different parameters. It may not me necessary all this with one tank. But I like to see its history.

Hey, I use aquarimate for IOS. And I really like it. There is the parameters history, live stock, etc.

Anyone can help? I don’t have a quarantine tank. The only medicine I have at home is esha2000 which it is described as safe to treat on my main tank. However, I wanna make sure there is something before applying medicine on my water tank.

Hello Guys, I have a 15 g tank with a LED 6500k, but I don’t know its lumen. I am wondering if it is enough for my tank. Is it? Also, I bought my Anubias, it came on a cup and tried to plant on my substrate. But I’m not sure if it’s the best way. I notice there is a kind of filter between...

Thank you! Any comment on the behaviour? It’s one of my mollys.

Guys, I have 2 questions: 1. I got these fishes 3 weeks ago, and I remember the LFS saying Molly. However, I was found some research about mates and I saw they look similar to Platy. I will add some pictures below, what do you think? 2. One of these fish like to swim fast against the...

Hi guys. Molly is my first fish and I am trying to learn about the behaviours and needs. I notice they are healthy on my 3 weeks old tank, it was cycles fish-less for 15 days. My question is, is normal this length of poo? It’s not always but I would like to make sure.

Hello, I had the same “issue” at the beginning of my tank. They told me it’s common appears when the piece is new in your tank and it’s not harmless to fish. When I added my first fishes (Molly) they ate all these “algae” in one night :)

Hi guys, My question is, can I use my “8 hours of light” between 12pm and 8pm? Or 1pm to 9pm? The idea is to have the tank light on during the evening. Because than I can appreciate my fishes :) Today I am turning on at 9 am and off at 7pm. But I am not home during this time. Ps; my tank...

Morning, Yesterday I did a 50% water change and this morning fishes were swimming as before. I can’t see any visible sign of stress as you indicated. One fishing is sometime surfing on the glass but only with her mouth. Not using body. She seems playing against herself (if it’s not normal...

Thank you Sarah. I have had many articles about fish-less cycle, I added the food at the begin too. Forgot to mention that. Anyway, now they are there. So I will keep as a fish in cycle and hopefully nothing happen to them.

I cycled fish-less. Added tap water, water conditioner TETRA AQUASAFE, gravel and 2 Anubias. Turn on internal filter (sponge) and the thermometer at 77f. The day after I added TETRA SAFESTART water preparation. After 2 weeks I brought the water to the shop. They tested and I got the 6 Female...

Hi, Yes, cycled for 15 days. Too short? It was the recommendation from the shop :( The readings I got today is using a colour chart as the pictures below. NH4- less than 0.05 No2 - less than 0.01 No3 - 1 There isn’t the reading 0 on my test kit. But Nitrate I guess is too low...

Guys, Yesterday I started stocking my 15g tank. I brought home 6 female Mollys. I did all the acclimating advised. They ate normal yesterday and today. But of the Mollys is just staying close to the gravel for a while already. She is moving her fins normally. Any advice? Is it normal...

Sure, my 15g is not the best, but I read that it will demand only a bit of more attention on water treatment and they will be great. They are all female. I am not planning to breed yet.

Thank you :) Today I finished my fishless cycling and I added 6 mollys :) They seem enjoying ... Next step is my center piece.

I have just started my tank, and I started with mollys. Indeed they spent a lot of time around the bottom eating.

Hello, I found this article here: Ich or white spot This is a nasty parasite that can be fatal if left untreated. At first you’ll notice white spots that look like your fish has been sprinkled with salt. You may notice your fish rubbing against objects in the tank in irritation. They may also...

Welcome Tommy. I’m like you... just newbie looking for loads of info. :) I hope you build a great community.

My plan is to have a shrimp. But while the tank is empty, do you think I leave or wash it? My concern is the water cycle. Thank you :)
