Yesssss! Guppy Hoarding Bros! I have my males in a 29 gallon and my girls in a 20 gallon! And one (1) misgendered male fry in the female tank has been a NIGHTMARE. And a 10 gallon that has idk how many young fry rn. It has at least three batches that’s all I know LMAOOOO. May we be cranky...

I have a second fern that size in another tank and I love it! They have lots of babies but their growth is sooooooooooooo sllllllllooooooooooooooow Is THAT what the brown powdery stuff is? Do you know what causes it? It’s a little bit of everywhere. This particular tuft could use some nerfed...

A year difference! Yuki’s second birthday is in march and she’s already showing signs that’s she’s gonna floof out. Aka soooooooooo much shed. She’s really blowing her coat out. That’s what Ellie did before she poofed out.

I use a 10 gallon for my fry~ and as most of y’all probably know, decorations make catching fry a NIGHTMARE. So I tried to figure out a set up that was open but still provided hiding places for the skittish (fry only tank. So unless the snails go on a murderous rampage there’s no threats) And...

So, one of reasons (other than y know…. PRICE) I have never ever had a marine tank is because of how complicated the filter system is. When I mentioned this to my LFS conversationally, I got two different responses. My super expensive LFS: Salt water aquariums a second tank full of I can’t for...

For my first 10 gallon tank I made it a male guppy/endler tank! guppies can be any color so they’re super fun to search for while exploring new fish stores. Since you had koi originally, you might like the color variety of guppies ~ I would recommend getting a group of at least 5 males and...

definitely would not put a betta fish in a community tank. But! All you need for one is a 5 gallon tank. It’s not a big tank and it could probably go in your kids room and be her “personal” fish A female Pearl or honey gourami would probably be good. Males tend to be more aggressive. And the...

Once the fry get big enough you can sell or donate them to your LFS! Cause yeah…. It’s just gonna get worse from there the more you keep. The more fish means more available to give birth and then suddenly your drowning in fry LOL. The best way to get them to survive is to give them their own...

How do different genders of rams interact with each other? The pair is still to young to properly gender, but the smaller one which is the ones who developed the sunken tummy (and starting pooping egregiously large dumps over the deworming period) is always swimming around exploring minding...

Idk if my vote counts bc California is in a permanent state of drought LOL I’ve had small infestations in all my tanks but just water changes was enough to deal with it. Except my 55 gallon. It was so throughly covered that my plants were dying from being suffocated. I ended up having to use...

I moved my rag tag group of cories up to the 55 too quickly… moved them in groups of 3 into the main tank several hours apart but I probably should’ve waited a couple days between groups. Added 9. And a few days later there was an ammonia spike. Or maybe it was also the increased food in the...

Alrighty! Yeah it’s been dead for at least a year. It was on its last legs when we moved in and never recovered. Our other plants grew over it so we forgot about it. Dug it up about 2-3 months ago and I was letting it bake in the sun and get rained up to help it dry out/get cleaned

So my house, I’ve lived here for about 2 years, and we were doing some gardening. We’ve completely transformed the backyard from a sickly deathbed to a flourishing garden! ANYWAY. We were clearing away some of the plants that weren’t doing so well, including some sort of bush that was very very...

Ohhhh what’s that red long finned fish? It’s lovely!

Sounds like you’ve done everything well so far! But yeah. I’d say just give him time, traveling via mail is a stressful experience. I’d say give him a week or two to fully feel comfortable. Some fish don’t take this long, but others do depending on personality. Turning off the lights also helps...

Yeah man. I ordered a couple fish from koi companion I believe it was, but they told me point blank in an email during correspondence: “After we took off the LIVE FISH label, suddenly customers were reporting much higher survival rates.” So basically: the boxes were handled rougher when the...

So reading the instructions for prazipro… is one dose all you do? It sounds like dose once, wait 6 days, so a 20-25% water change, repeat once, and done? Or is one dose sufficient? And two only for bad infections

So my sister got a pair of electric blue rams a few weeks ago. They both look healthy and have a very healthy appetite. Both are active swimmers and have nice colors. But one of them, the smaller one, has started to develop a sunken belly. And after looking it up it seems like parasite might be...

My current betta tried to attack his nerite a few times but eventually gave up LOL. He’d previously been in a tank with a small pond snail invasion that I didn’t really care enough to stop but he thrived on hunting the small snails down, ripping them off the glass, and the feasting. Needless to...

Fascinating. Creatures that thrive on neglect flakes and I-didn’t-even-know-you-existed sinking shrimp pellets. They’re in a 55 gallon. Seems like even the other occupants of the tank forgot about them too.

So I bought shrimp a few months ago cause I thought my fish were young enough to not fit the shrimp in their mouths at the time…. And I was clearly proven wrong and I thought they had all died. Until today. I rearranged my tank, cleared away a lot of the yucky debris that had collected on the...

That’s the third fish plush they’ve knitted! They made me a couple others for my birthday in July for a couple of my other fish. You can see the improvement of their skills over time lol. The Cory was the first one. The guppy the second. The pleco the third.

LMAOOOOOOO I know it’s a normal thing but it’s just a bit ridiculous especially when they’re twirling around and everyone else is behaving like normal

Soooooo I’m gonna assume this isn’t what it looks like which is a lesbian square dance trying and failing to get a Christmas smooch. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HOAS8R1bVe4benk7yjr1NhUU4RTi5yrf/view?usp=drivesdk These are the only two gourami in the tank, both female. I’m assuming it’s a...
