I don't know (never had this pair) but I wouldn't count on it. I've read threads where the member had the same idea - angels and neons raised together from a young age/small size are ok together - but after about 8 months or so, as the angel grew, the neons "mysteriously" disappeared. The member...
I'm sorry to hear about the fish deaths, especially on Christmas. The bloated stomachs look like a case of dropsy. Dropsy is not a disease of itself but it's a sign that something else is wrong - an infection, tumor, organ failure. The red worms could be suspicious. Are you feeding live worms...
Since you can't be sure how much medicine was removed with the carbon, I would start the dosing over again. I would do a 50% water change and then remove and discard that carbon. Start your dosing over again. When you are done with the dosing, do another 50% water change and put new carbon into...
Welcome to Aquarium Advice!
You'll have to choose between the angelfish and the neon tetras or guppies, or, as you put it, evil will ensue (that's clever :)) Neon tetras are the natural prey of angels, and I've also read some posts where members report that angels have eaten adult guppies too...
Very nice! Is that driftwood or something else - it's different! I love the anuabias nana "petite" planted up on it. The substrate really catches my eye too!

Thanks for understanding. :)
Plethora...LOL
I got my set like this at Linens 'n Things. I did get another set before they went out of business. Good thinking on your part to get a bunch. They do make dosing EI in small tanks very easy. I never saw anything like this set elsewhere so if you're in need of something to make...
I have two fixtures to sell. They are both the same. CurrentUSA 12 inch, 18 watt twin tubes, compact fluorescent lighting with moonlight. I will include the bulb - it is about 6-8 months old, so it has anywhere from 4 to 6 months of use remaining. Price is $15 (includes shipping). PM if interested.
I think the best anubias for a 10 gallon aquarium is Anubias barteri var. nana. This plant is generally wider than it is tall. It fills in the foreground nicely. It won't compete with your crypts or taller plants - it will create some interest in the front area of the tank.
I also have had...
Marsilea quadrifolia will make a nice ground cover. I was always pruning it out of my tank. It grows mostly in a long, straight row but very soon you'll have enough to cut some pieces off the main row and plant in another area. You can fill in the tank this way. I used plant anchors (the...
You may consider trying another variety of aquatic moss. I gave up on java moss after I experienced the same thing - I noticed that my java moss clump was mostly brown/black strands, and I have pressurized CO2. Taiwan moss looks like java moss and stays a lot greener. It grows faster too, but...
I don't think a pair will work in a 29 gallon either. Like Jonathan says, they are active and swim pretty fast. I've seen them zip all around a 150 gallon tank. Aggressive fish are even more aggressive in small tanks, as their competition for territory is intensified. I definitely wouldn't put...
I also feel that the person in the video was moving the vac too fast. She was kicking up a lot of detritus. I wouldn't be surprised if she caused an ammonia spike.
It's also, IMO, much easier to do than the video presents. I would definitely recommend a bucket clip to attach the hose to the...
I agree with BigJim. Some of my bettas made small bubble nests, and others made huge nests that mounded up out of the water. When I did a water change, I took as much of the nest out as I could with a plastic spoon and put it in a plastic cup with some water in the bottom. When I was done I put...
Like dkpate says, bettas do best in heated, filtered tanks like any other fish. Bettas also have a labyrinth organ that allows them to come up to the surface and breathe air, so they need some surface area of the water that they can get to. Vases with small openings, filled with plant stems, is...
