Yeah! Stick your betta’s biomedia in the new filter and bam! Super fast cycle! I do it every time I start a tank or restart one and have never had an issue. Just part of it though, gotta leave some for your og tank. If you have a sponge and biomedia, leave the sponge and move over the biomedia...

I had a female guppy who I bought BECAUSE I couldn’t see her gravid spot and therefore thought she was sterile. Alas. A week later, while she was still in QT, I was proven very wrong. 💀

So. Just a couple days over a week since fertilizing: Java moss is blossoming swearing it’s always been a vibrant green color rather than a gross brown, the tall skinny plants are hinting at a genetic relation to rabbits, the others reaching just ever taller and able to support snoozing bottom...

It’s really not…. Like. It looks like a horribly deformed fish, not like something you would want to breed at all. I imagine their health issues are massive…. I was shocked to say the least.

So yesterday I lifted the lid to my 55g to adjust a plant when I noticed what looked to be a moldy caterpillar under the lid. It took a few seconds to register what they were exactly LOL. but they are mysterious snail eggs! But! As you can tell by the water level: the tank is in need of a water...

Tada~ I’m not that happy with the face shape but I was experimenting with hair lol

OH. You GET the fish already dead! I thought you meant like buying an alive feeder fish and basically letting it die in the tank. I’ve never actually seen any fish store I’ve been to selling dead fish… I’ve never asked tho…

That’s… morbid. But I can see how it could help speed things up. Would never do it myself LOL Whenever I set up a new tank, I put one of my biomedia in the new tank and give the old tank a new one LOL. Just the biomedia, the sponge stays in the old tank.

I thought it was Chick-lid 😳😳😳Well the more you know LOL I typically leave my devices plugged in while doing water changes, and I’ve only regretted it once. One of my heaters broke- filled the whole room with burnt electrical smell. I like to use dead fish as plant fertilizer. I plant them...

Some neon black skirt tetras, blue rainbow fish, red headed angels, goldfish that stole my heart, and a disturbingly deformed “balloon” form of gourami that ive never ever seen before but they had a lot of them

Is there a way to @ people in a location if they’ve set it? @Floridians 😂😂

No one’s posted yet so I figured I’d get the ball rolling. This little guy is a 5th or so generation guppy, hailing from my original guppies I bought 2 years ago. He’s still young so his tail isn’t full grown yet, but he’s already showing some lovely coloring. He’s in a male (almost pure) guppy...

Noticed a few extra members in the tank tonight!

This?

Thank you 🙏 Can I use both at once safely? And I’m pretty sure that it’s not planted LOL It’s gotten that big in the year I’ve had it (if I’m looking at the same you are) I’m pretty sure it’s being held down by a decorative rock lmaooo

Im pretty sure these are root feeers? They got some intense rooots and grow in the substrate

I’m mostly concerned with the safety of root tabs for fish/looking for the best ones. I just bought a few baby plants and wanted to help speed up their growth. My main tanks that would need it are: 20g, 29g, and a 55g. I have sand only substrate. So just any advise on this I would really...

Yup! Like what emaradlking said, just give it time. In my experience of breeding forked tails, the fry started off with normal shaped guppy tails and then as they got older those forks started growing. And it can take awhile for a guppies coloring to finish coming in which make the fork more...
