I’m also in Aus and I have found that many stores are selling individual test kits for what you are trying to test such as Ammonia, Nitrate and Nitrite. Although it might not be cheaper overall you could build over time.

if you need to clean it use tank water after a water change.

For the Orinoco there has been illegal mining done in Venezuela which makes up for the majority of the river that has done irreversible damage such as artisan rafts that inject mercury into the riverbed to extract gold. This has contaminated and poisoned many waterways in the Orinoco

Fun fact the Pantanal is not a river but a wetlands containing multiple rivers. 80% of the Pantanal is flood planes that get flooded during the rainy season and contains up to 12 different ecosystems.

Not trying to come of rude but if you are going to get a 20 gallon tank I would recommend moving your existing tetra in there instead for getting brand new species.

Ok thanks going to pick up a breeding trio

Hi guys I’m thinking of getting a pair of these Apistos. They are labeled as f3 Apistogramma sp. Alto Tapiche and from doing some reasearch there are lots of apistos from that region and I am just wanting some help identifying if they really are Alto Tapiche or another species there where only...
