Ok. But I would like to have pure colony’s. I’m thinking of getting a little 3-6 gallon cube for the orange Sakura.

No my betta is in a 5 gal by himself. I have a 15 gal for the rcs

So I have a 15 gallon That is cycling for cherry shrimp. I just was at my lfs and saw an orange Sakura shrimp that was berried. I bought it and a male. I put them in a breeder net in my 29 gallon tank. This is only temporary. I have a 5 gallon betta tank that I could put them in. I don’t want...

Ok thanks for the help!

Ok. So if I reduce lighting I should be good?

The co2 tank has aquasoil in it.

Yea the 29 with co2 doesn’t necessarily need co2. And I can’t split bc they are across the room from each other. So I should be fine I should just expect an algae bloom?

I have co2 on my 29 gallon. I just started a 20 long dirted tank and it has more demanding plants. I want to add that system to my 20 long but I want to add it soon. Could I just take the co2 off the 29 gallon? What affect would it have on the plants? What else should I do to help the plants...

Pressurized. The tanks are across the room from each other tho.

I have a 29 gallon tank with co2. I just set up a 20 long dirted tank and it has way more demanding plants such as dhg and Monte Carlo. How should I go about taking my 29 gallon off the co2 and putting my 20 long on it?

Ok I definitely will

Ok, for know I will put them in a breeder net in a 20 gallon community tank.

Ok. Peacock gudgeons aren’t aggressive. They just thought of the shrimp as snacks

O ok. Thanks again!

Ok. Why is that?

O and another option! I have a 20 gal that I can add my betta to. It has apistogramma, a peacock gudgeon, and a bunch of tetras. Is than an option or no?

Ok thanks. I’ll do this. Thanks again! Pray for my little guys also!

Ok thanks. So how would you go about distracting or taking him out?

That’s what I’m thinking. I can add a dragon stone and moss to help that. Should I go get some ghost shrimp in case he gets hungry? I just don’t want these guys to die!

So I just stopped in at my lfs and I saw an orange Sunkist shrimp and it was burried so I bought it. I picked up what I think is a male also. I have a few options. I have a 5 gal betta tank but I don’t know if my Betta will eat it. I also have a 20 gallon but it has a peacock gudgeon which might...

He is doing fine now and they are growing back. He is eating also

I have 20lb of fine gravel. I’m dirting my 20 long. Is it enough to have a cap? I want an inch at the front and an inch and a half at the back. Should I go and buy one 5lb bag to be safe?

Ok thanks for the help. I’ve done this method a few times but since the apistogramma were $40 a pair I don’t want to loose them. Thanks again

Ok. I understand how to do that bc I’ve done it before but my main question is that is it ok that the apistogramma are in the tank right away as they are sensitive?

That’s what i plan to do. It’s ok since the “tank” isn’t cycled but the media is bc I know the apistogramma can be sensitive. I guess I’ll just watch the parameters and do water changes

I have a trio of apistogramma cacatuoides in a 20 high community tank. I’m changing that high to a long tomorrow and I’m taking the high and setting it up just for the trio. I’m taking a seeded sponge filter and some media from other tanks. I will add some drift wood and Indian almond leaves. Is...

Ok. I won’t have the loaches anyway

Yes. How do fish not like bright light if the sun is stronger than the lights on our tanks?

What plants are you growing then?

I have a fluval flex 15 and I want to grow dwarf hairgrass, Monte Carlo, and s repens. I’ve heard the stock light isn’t strong enough. I would move the stock light to the back a bit and Velcro a 12’ nicrew light. Has anyone done a mod like this on the fluval flex? What are y’all’s experience...

Ok. I already have the mystery snails and they are not eating the plants. They are magenta ones so I’m sure they are mystery. I give them an algae wafer twice a day and they gobble it up

Shrimp?

What would?

The tank is going to be a shrimp tank with a few small fish. How would I be able to do 3 honey gourami instead of 6 cpds and a few snails? As far as I’m concerned the snails will have the highest bioload

How about 5 mystery snails, shrimp, 10 Pygmy cories, 6 ottos, 6 cpds?

O ok. Thanks then. Does my stocking sound good? I know all of the fish have very small bio loads.

Ok. The cories should do. Why do they need such a big tank if they aren’t that big? Ik they get like 3 inches but I thought they weren’t that active

I have a fluval flex 15 and I’m going to take some cycled media and 5 mystery snails to add some waste for like 2 weeks or until my parameters are stable. I’m then going to order shrimp online. I might add 6 ottos I’m not sure yet. After like 1-2 months I want to add 8 Pygmy cories. I would then...

Ok. The light is fine I just want to grow dhg, Monte Carlo, and s repens
