Normally that would help, but the op says there is a water buffering substrate in the tank.

Um yeah if you want to test your water to see if you can keep soft water fish.

If you have water softening substrate then your hardness will be completely different in the tank. Do you have a test kit?

What is the hardness if the water in the tank?

If your water is hard, you should choose a fish that likes hard water like Livebearers or safely lower it. you can’t argue that your water is fine for your fish if it’s hard and that’s that.

Body is more slender, and fin shape is different.

I have NEVER seen albino peleatus at any fish store, much less mixed in with the albino aeneus.

Your PLATY probably just had a big meal

I was assuming so because there were no new threads

Was that why after like noon yesterday we couldn’t post anything? or was that just me?

Water parameters? Water conditions? (gh, kh, ph, temp, nitrite nitrate, and ammonia.) tank size? full stocking?

Unless your tsc gets chicks from another local hatchery, you don’t have blue giants, and you definetly don’t have an Ayam cemani

The algae and plants are most likely consuming the nitrates faster than you can add ferts.

Pearl gouramis are mid to top dwellers.;)

I would up all your tetra schools, but rummynose specifically because they like larger groups, and I would get TONS more corries, since you have bronze (c.aeneus) you can get albinos or green corries(not emeralds) just make sure they are Aeneus. I would have at the very least 20 corries in that...

Do you have a link? I cant find any info about sulpha on tomatoes.

I haven’t tried my homegrown tomatoes ( I don’t care for raw tomatoes), I do grow hundreds a year for my chickens, so I will have to make some salsa with them this year!

Neons should be kept anywhere from 69 F to 82 F. so I would keep the tank at around 77 F.

Pearl gourami like temps above 76, what temp do you plan?

I would get some rosy barbs. I have 4 neon rosy barbs in my 36 gallon, with pearl gourami, and Corydoras. They just zoom all over and never stop.

I would get at least a trio of pearl gourami, they do better in larger numbers.

Maybe Amano‘s, the gourami while peaceful will most likely pick off anything smaller.

First, get at least 15 corries of the same species( or 2:) next, I LOVE pearl gouramis, so I recommend a trio or 2 trios of them. Or you could do plain old angelfish lol! And then ad 1-3 schools of 8-20 of rasboras, or tetras, or another type of schooler.

Cold pizza Is nasty! But I havent been able to eat pizza for years, I am severely lactose intolerant (and somehow allergic to tomatoes.) but at the end of the pickle jar I have been known to drink the juice!

Lucky! I can’t imagine how many bins there would be! the family farm and homes and tractors supply’s in Michigan have normally around 20 different bins, 1 or 2 for assorted bantams, 1 or 2 for ducks, rarely 1 for turkeys, and like 5-15 for 2-3 different breeds of layer chicks. ( some are...

You now know for sure that I have chickens too! here are my most recent chicks, 26 of them. here they are today, they are 2-4 weeks old.

I don’t know about the uk but every feed store here has chicks right now. If you find chicks the store should have an assorted bantam bin, it’s males and females of all different breeds though.

I agree get more corries! for the 320 I suggest a trio of pearl gourami! They are awesome!

What are your water parameters? Gh, kh and ph. We need to know these before suggesting fish. angelfish are not the best for a 40 breeder because they like tall tanks.

It is not necessary to put them in their own tank, it is HIGHLY unlikely that they will survive. Normally you would cull them.

Yes silkies are overbred one hatcheries, you could get some from a reputable breeder though. Normally any Cochin (frizzles, sizzles, and frazzles) and D’uccle are very calm and friendly.

I can’t really tell from the pics, but some have a few unique colors that I’ve never seen on a blue Plymouth Rock. Can you get a pic of each chick in natural light?

How many did you get? Are they all blue Plymouth rocks? Some of them look off color

I would go with pea puffers, to me the tank doesnt look like a betta tank :whistle:

I would also euthanize him

It has the appereance and growth of dwarf aquarium lily , but the leaves are a weird shape, I’m thinking it’s a very stretched Apongeton.

self named chicken expert (nerd) here! the general rule for bantams is 2-4 sq ft In the coop (with 2 being the absolute minimum) and in the run 5-10 sq ft. I would build them a little 10x10 run with a coop in the corner or connected to it. If you let the, out in the garden they will tear up...

Gardening, houseplants, atv’s, chickens! here are some pics of my recent batch of chicks (26) and some houseplants. note: that whole top shelf is now full of plants!
