I would add more sand and plant your plants, so you can add root caps. My crypts are doing great I’m straight sand with Thrive root caps, I do add Thrive liquid as well for my stem plants

I think since you want to breed it’s important to know what species you own, so you can optimize conditions for that particular species. Cories often eat their own eggs as well as other fish. I grow some dense mats of java fern and susswasertag in my 55g I assume that helps my fry to hide...

A lot of the seeds sold are complete fakes. Unless it is a reputable seller. I hope yours are real

Long Finned Black Skirt Tetra. Most Black Skirts fade out as they age and turn more silvery as adults

FYI those of you with Julii cats almost certainly have Corydoras trilineatus 3 Lined Cory. C. julii are quite rare in most areas. But they are sold as julii since they look similiar. True julii have very fine spots, not reticulated lines and their nose is very rounded...

Tiger Barbs do best in at least 30g and the larger the group the better. 20 Tiger Barbs in a 55g look great. Convicts ? They are cute babies and very hardy. BUT the minute you have opposite sexes they will pair up, attempt to attack the rest of the tank and have babies. The first time it’s...

One of my Nepenthes under LED panel just to show some of the new LEDs are getting quite good.

A PAR meter will tell you how much light is reaching the bottom if the tank has water in it. A LUXE meter will read dry lights I believe ?? Just adjust distance to read where bottom of tank would be. If the bulbs are old, swap them out, I try to swap my T5HOs out at least yearly. You can...

I grow all of mine in sand. I bury root Caps and use Thrive. I do weekly to every 2 week water changes.

29g is very small for Roselines. I have a 55g and even that is the minimum I’d use. They need plenty of flow and very clean water. Mine like to hang out under the outflow. Tons of plants and a black background and covered sides as they are very nervous fish. 1 died suddenly and I believe...

I have a 55g Planted 20 Neons 8 Rummynose 4 Roselines ( 55 is on the small side for them ) 7 Cory sterbai 1 Pearl Gourami My Neons look awesome in this tank. I love large shoals of small fish.

This is my Amazon Sword in my 55g. You could always start one and then sell it or give it away later.

Don’t feel bad, I used to have a pack of six. I’m housesitting for 2 weeks. My 2 Whippets, Plus 5 other Whippets

Adorable. What kennel or breeder ?

Angelina with aerodynamic ears

Thanks for the input. This O Ring feels ok. I think it’s about a year old. I may order another. I have a much newer Eheim Ecco Canister on another tank, and it self primes and is much easier to stop and start and put back together. I’m impressed my Fluval is such a workhorse. Just this...

I’m running a Fluval 403 Canister Filter. Canisters have always intimidated me a bit. I have years of experience with HOBs. Finally decided my 403 needed a thorough cleaning. I’m running an AC on the same tank, so I’m hoping my cycle will be fine. I took everything apart, kept one big...

Ammonia is a fish killer. 18g is not a big tank. Too many fish, added too fast. 1 BN Pleco needs at least 30g , I’d say return those. They are poop machines. They poop a lot more than they clean. They will starve in a new clean tank unless you feed them. If you want a type of...

SFBAAPS = San Francisco Bay Area Aquatic Plant Society The oldest and largest in the US ...AFAIK

Im an SFBAAPS member. Free to join. Use your Real name. All the plants in this tank came from other members as freebies We rotate the meets, so they aren’t all in one place. AquaForest hosts a meet for us with a raffle. And Tom Barr is a member. We got to see his tanks earlier this year.

Yes use old for sure

Some of us had enough real in our lives. This was in the 80's The 90's The current decade...helped train GSD attack dogs. This guy now works for DEA I don't need fish who tear up my tank or bite me to feel macho. LOL And to the OP ? I hope your kid loves the tank. I also grow...

Growing baby. I'd feed 5 at a time, if she's hunting for more, 5 more. She could probably take 10-20 of those. Pretty small size. They can eat veggies too.

I feed Pellets, Crickets, worms, you can float Anacharis plants and she might eat them too. I just let them eat what they want. But I try to rotate the food.
