your Youtube channel is a really good one! love the music and fish.

I Didn't have the chance to try them since we don't have any left, but lettuce and other vegetables help! I know peas can be a good laxative though, used it a long time ago on constipated fish. Anyway, the parasites are all gone and the fish in question just had 2 or more babies :)

huh, that's weird, it turned some of my Black beard algae Red, only the ones on my Vallisneria though. Main ingredient Levamisole

Hello! It's the last day of treatment and this medication seems to work nicely. Here's a detailed guide to what to watch out for, for any future users of this. Expel- P tips: Use a lot of filter Floss on the filter intake when using this medication as it will produce a ton of biofilm and dead...

yeah, the reason I failed to raise these snails last time was because the fish would steal everything I tried to feed the snails and the tank was so big I cannot even find the snails half the time.

now that I look at it again, It does look excactly like Faunus ater and not rabbit snails! The brownish coloring + the overall smooth shell (faunus ater still have small grooves). rabbit snails are more darker colored and have more of their body showing, and also have bumps with grooves where...

hi! I do both types of gardening and even full shade outdoors can beat full direct sun indoors. an example is tradescantia: they like light a lot, and will crawl towards it and seem etoliated indoors(maybe light is only from one direction/window) but they spread out naturally outdoors (even in...

Hello! I'm wondering what you guys use to keep your mystery snail shell looking healthy. I've no trouble keeping shrimp and nerites but these have been hard to keep.

Mudskippers would be nice, however I made this tank with plants that are freshwater, and they like brackish better :( I see, I'll consider and look around the tanks for any tricky spots if I plan to get them. I plan on getting Vampire Crabs for now, they seem pretty nice. If I can get ahold of...

After putting tons of fiber filter in, and water-changes, the terrarium water is much better, good enough to add a little trapdoor friend, and also a ramshorn but i am not sure where it ran off to.

ok, I'll look if i still have any.

i wash it thoroughly and crush it into tiny caterpillar like bits and feed to guppies outdoors, when my homegrown lettuce was in season. thanks! is there any specific types of food that will help more?

yes, the worm does not seem to be red or even moving like before. I'll continue feeding good stuff, and repeat after a week. Does lettuce do any good to fish's digestive system as Fiber? will it help her pass the big worm?

Hello, I just treated with Expel-P because I noticed camallanus worms on my guppy. Wondering if it is normal for a worm to be still inside the guppy after 2 days of treatment?

I researched a bit and it seems half the dartfrog community thinks they can, and other half thinks not. I think they definitely won't drown but some of them maybe won't explore the water world too much. Same! dart frogs are really cool little guys. I think their enclosure might be a little...

I think 7 hours is too little, I have my daylight cycle light for almost 21 hours of varying light, only 3 hours of total darkness. (low tech tank) I've never kept monte carlo, but I've kept my fair share of high light plants. they seem to be etiolated, which means more light is necessary...

yes! That could be wonderful! I've never kept animals other than fish, shrimp, and snails so It will be a wild ride. We have some nice "reptile" stores here that might carry frogs. Another consideration for these tiny frogs would be drowning, but I'm not sure. It'd be fun watching their tadpoles...

same here! they're super expensive here, 9 bucks a pop.

absolutely amazing! I'd love to travel there one day and attend this event.

It's slowly getting better every day by waterchange, cycling out the suspended solids. Would you guys recommend any livestock in the future once everything grows in? I'm thinking vampire crabs, but they are hard to get here. or a Leopard frog. would there be any land and water animal...

Hi! I just finished using it, and it really nukes your tank quality after a day (cloudy + biofilm everywhere), but after a large water change, it's all back to normal. seems to have a bad effect on a few types of algae, like Staghorn and black beard algae. turned orange after treatment. maybe...

yes I did, however I think I did not wash the rocks very thoroughly... Do you know of any ways to mechanically remove this? I have many types of filter media.

love the guppies! wow, so many snails, how do you keep them healthy?

I have many springtails that just sit on top of the floater and nothing can get them (i think a few hundred maybe), I have a tank full of top hunters (big gouramis, guppies, etc) and they dont eat a lot of springtails. springtails are too fast and floating plants provide many hiding spaces.

Hello everyone! I completed my paludarium build! I'll be keeping track of the progress of this build here, and also have some questions below Here's the full build details! Hardscape/mechanics: - Manzanita wood and queen palm flower stalk, sheet moss from a Pine forest? - Red lava rock, Large...

I assume I got this not from the fish, but from some new snails and shrimp that I got. Apparently camallanus can survive a long time just hitchhiking a snail. I got nerite snails and bamboo shrimp which are basically all wild caught. @GaryE , I treated both the tanks with this, and both have...

do you have a photo? That will be the most helpful thing to determine what to do

there’s many outdoor and indoor arum lilies that look a lot like anubias: Spathiphyllum (peace lily) looks the most like it, outdoors white calla lilies look a lot like the flowers.

yes, i think there was a little bit of both sides of misunderstanding, sorry for the confusion. I was saying that there was one fish that was severely affected but other fish may not be extremely affected and will have a higher survival rate hopefully. Update on the medicine, I just got it and...

Thanks! I'll look into that. Fritz expel P seems to be similarly priced, but if I run out, I'll try that one. do you know if it is available in the US? Thanks, luckily I don't see any visible worms on any other fish except for one that I separated, so I hope they don't die.

also wondering since my tank is so big and so densely planted, if some worms are not vaccumed up, will they still die once paralyzed?
