Hi guys, I recently bought a 20g tank for an extremely good price and I was thinking about different stocking ideas. The plan is the plan will be heavily planted with ecocomplete as its substrate. Also there'll be a CO2 system installed with PPS-Pro as fertilizers. First of all I wanna put...

It's actually the other way around. My digital thermometer is reading 1.7 higher than my filter temp. Yes the filter is on the floor inside a cabinet.

I don't have my heaters installed in the tank anymore because there is no point of having it. The ambient temperature in my room is already in the high 70s so I ended up taking the heaters out. On a hot day the ambient can rise to mid 80s. There is no heater built in the filter. I tried using...

I have two thermometer for my tank. One is a standard digital temperature and the other is on my Fluval G3. Before I got my Fluval I was just running one thermometer and its readings have always been 79-81. At one point it went as high as 82, it got really hot where I lived. I installed the...

Yeah I knew it's a livebearer. Any idea when I should start moving it to a breeder?

Hi guys, I was wondering if my Swordtail is pregnant or not? I got her almost two weeks ago. There are two Swordtails and two Platys in my tank. Thanks.

Yeah. It looks like they were kept in a tank with NH3 present. That one ended up dead and I got a replacement. But now another Corys is sick. Not sure what it is, but I'm guessing is a fungal infection. Unfortunately I don't have any medicine except Paraguard and Cupramine. So I've moved it to a...

I think it's safer to do so but then again that all depends on how long have they been in the bag for, parameter of water in the bag, and type of fish. Perhaps hardier fish don't need to acclimate for that long. I know my platys and zebra danios only took one hour to acclimate and all of them...

Is it infectious for my other fishes?

I found one of my Corys like this. It was fine yesterday but then tonight he developed this. I'm not sure what it is. Does anybody know what it is? All I have for treatments are Seachem Paraguard and Cupramine. I don't have anything else and they are hard to find here.

I wanna know about this as well. My tank is 85 gallon and right now I have 4 clown loaches around 2.5"-3". I'm planning to get around 10 tiger barbs.

Thanks for the help man. My corys are great, the red gills are almost gone. There is a hint of red but they are definitely recovering. I think the tank at where I bought it had ammonia in it which cause the red gill due to irritation.

I have a question about you spoon method for acclimating. Do you just add 1tblsp from the tank into the bag every 5 minutes or do you take out 1tblsp of water from the bag as well?

I got a replacement corys from my lfs for the one that dies yesterday. I've noticed that all of them have the same red gills. My guess is that they were stressed out. I also noticed that the ones that I have for 24 hours are already starting to look less red.

I completely agree with you on their gills being red. I noticed it right away, so I've been keeping an eye on them. It's been 24 hours and so far so good. All of them seems to be energetic. Hopefully it stays that way. I have a 24-inch air stone and a disk-air stone.
