Constant water changes only if you're not treating, also make sure there is no activated carbon in the tank while treating. How big of a tank is it, is it cycled, and can we see some pictures?

Favorite movie? Godfather 2 ez for me

Favorite - learning about fish anatomy and watching my tetras eat Least favorite - Probably sickness

Wonder if he realizes how much of an idiot he sounds like

Did you say a Dempsy in a 10 G? It's but a fry right?

One inch per gallon is not a great way to check stocking. When looking for fish there are a couple categories to tick - Where does the fish live? You have 3 species of bottom dweller, and one species of middle dweller. - What is your water hardness? 11 dGH can be translated into 183 ppm, which...

Ah, I'm afraid no one here is a frog expert. That being said I'm sure @Colin_T can comment on treatments and disease. Sorry about your frog.

GH? What is the footprint?

Columbian tetra are aggressive, but if you have 6-10 it will only be amongst themselves, and only for a couple weeks while they set up a hierarchy. They are also pretty big, how large is the footprint of your tank?

Oh, I just read this a bit closer. Running on rocks or for long distances isn't what destroys knees. Technique destroys knees. I've been running through mountains (8-10 miles) in running shoes with around 1/4 inch of padding for about 4 years, and I've never had problems. My dad has been doing...

Swimming burns a ton of calories because your body produces heat, and you're working hard. It also destroys your body fat %, so you'll have some nice muscle definition if you do the right things. For actually building muscle, do 100 pushups, 100 sit-ups, and 100 squats every day and then a 8...

Fluval E is really great :)!

Probably a new light and heater for da tank :)

Hi! I forgot to add the part about the leaf litter in my op, thanks for reminding me! I live in El Paso, so not too close to you, but thank you for the offer. I know a website that sells leaves for dirt cheap and debugs them. Bit of a hold up with the build as I'm short on cash to get the proper...

Can you try and get a clearer shot.

I was surprised bubble bois could be that cheap!

I meant for this to be all serious and I really went and asked if you shopped on US amazon LMAOOOOOOOO

im literally hijacking my own thread lolololololololololol

Do you shop on the U.S. amazon site?

You should also get a bigger tank. It'll stay more consistent if it's 5 or 10 gallons, not to mention the water parameters will be much more reliable the bigger the tank.

Oh ok. I guess I'll get a second 10 G then lol. I'll look into those products thanks crispii.

"Try getting six. There is a high possibility that you're going to get males and females. You might end up getting a pair or two. If you're wanting to get a high survival rate out of the fry, just set up another tank for them and remove the non-parents." You think that six will be fine in a 10g...

Hey all, I'm going to change my 10 gallon QT tank into a breeder for liquorice gourami. It is likely that these are being sold as deissneri but are actually a different variant as there are very few true parosphromenus deissneri available for purchase. That being said this thread will still...

So glad you're back. You rock Byron. I had a friend die young to skin cancer so these threads hit close to home. I'm glad you're doing better.

Only way to keep a betta in a community is to have slow moving, small finned fish. I'm not sure about embers but would recommend something like lambchop or chilli rasboras.

@Colin_T

Woooo! Hurray for Byron.

Did you read it all? It was a scratch card haha

Hey all, I like ponds. I want to make a pond. A cichlid pond. How would you guys do this cost effectively and safely?

im stress eating caramels

It's alright, I kind of forgot it. I'll just redo the thread, thanks though!

Nope, we actually upgraded the wifi because my family is working/doing school from home. Hopefully Fishmanic can turn something up.

Thanks crispii :) Not a betta expert myself, unlike crispii.

You could do betta imbellis (wild caught) other than that I wouldn't do it, betta splendens are hyper aggressive (females can snap) and generally have terrible genes. Lots of very cool fish to keep in a 55.

Title or just some letters? I remember writing "The tank will look something like" I can't really remember anything perfectly

@emeraldking

No siree, I even used the little save button twice before closing the tab.

I think 5 gallons is just about as small as you can go. I don't keep shrimp though. College is coming up for me as well and I'm nervous about getting a new tank as well. Would love to hear peoples suggestions.

I had a really big thread that took several drafts to make, and I came back to post it and it's gone. Any idea why?

Marimo moss balls use nitrates for fertilizer because they're technically algae. Never heard of nitra zorb.
