Hello, so I'm having some issues with my fishless cycle in my planted 10 gallon tank. I use an API freshwater master kit. I'm on the 22nd day of my cycle, which started with treated tap water and a bottle of Dr. Tims live bacteria. I use pure ammonia to feed the bacteria, dosing up to 2ppm as...

Hey all, so I'm in the middle of fishless cycling a 10gal tank for my betta, and in the meantime I've been keeping him in a temporary 1gal tank. On the 9th of April I setup a brand new 5.5 gallon tank to temporarily house the betta in. I did bring over the heater from the cycling 10gal and some...

Yo, so I'm starting up a 10g planted tank and doing a fishless cycle on it. I'm using Dr. Tims one and only in hopes of speeding up the cycle and using Dr Tims Ammonium Chloride to feed the bacteria. I followed the dosing instructions on the bottle which should have brought the tank to 2ppm...

Hello, so I'm in the process of fishless cycling a 10gallon planted tank that I would like to have some red cherry shrimp in along with my betta and maybe some pygmy corys. The tank has some anacharis, a few marimo moss balls, lots of java fern, a banana plant, pygmy chain swords and an amazon...

Hey all, so I recently set up a 10gal planted tank I plan to house a betta and some shrimp and maybe pygmy Cory's in. Today I was looking at plants in Petco and came across this beautiful black and yellow betta that I couldn't pass up. He was labeled as a "Paradise Male" but I think that's just...

Hi I have a 10 gallon planted tank with java moss, anacharis, water wisteria, an amazon sword, and anubias nana. I got the java moss for 20 bucks at a local fish store(that was prob overpriced but I don't mind supporting them I guess). When I got the java moss it was on a piece of drift wood...

Recently I got 3 amano shrimp for my 10 gallon planted betta tank. I acclimated them and put them in and they seemed to fit right in. My betta was curious at first, but never nipped at them, and once they found the java moss to munch on they never got in his way. Yesterday morning the largest of...

I think my betta has ich D: here's a picture: You can see the little white spots and there are a few more on the other side of him :( 1~What type of fish is afflicted? In addition, please describe what is wrong with the fish to the best of your ability (i.e. cotton like growth, bloated...

I got home about 5 hours ago with the remaining things I needed to set up my new 10 gallon tank for my male veiltail betta. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY THE PHOTOS ARE UPSIDE DOWN THEY ONLY DO THAT WHEN UPLOADED HERE The images are of the tank as a whole (yes it's quite bare as of now but the stuff i...

Hello, i'm starting a 10 gallon planted setup centered around my betta, along with amano and ghost shrimp, pygmy cories and ADFs. The only one I already have is the Betta, and I was planning on cycling the ten gallon WITH the Betta in it before I get the other fish. I am using a tetra whisper...

Hi, this is my first post here and I was wondering if this stock would work for my new 10 gallon tank? One Male Veiltale Betta (rather docile) 2 Ghost shrimp 4 Amano Shrimp 6-7 Pygmy corys The reason for the two ghost shrimp is that I still must test my Betta's temperament and if it leaves...
