I was thinking of a ram. Bolivian ram maybe

Store testing isn't accurate at all. Look into an API Master Test Kit. And DG's are very prone to getting diseases, so I would look into another master piece.

Gaint danios need even more than space than what you have unfortunately.

Where are the antennas?

If you had one for as long as you had the tank then your DG likely had lots of damage going through the fish-in-cycle. Did you use any prime?

If you just added three why did you add 7 more the next day?! You have to wait a week before adding more so the filter can adjust. Add four at a time. Then wait a week and add four more.

Any photos? My question is why do you keep on adding the same fish over and over again when it is dying? That is my question. Not meaning to sound rude, but obviously a DG isn't working out.

Not going to repeat what the others have said but you should maybe look into removing the tiger barbs and adding more tetras as they do best in numbers.

Message me! I wanna see how you are doing :)

No, I'll look soon. I may just leave them be as "if nothing is wrong, no reason to upset the balance" or something like that hahaha.

You just said you put them in an 18 gallon...? A 20 long is completely different than in 18 gallon. The dimensions are completely different. And @NickAu is right.

Danios are not only active, they need more room than you have. If they aren't in a proper group, expect fins to be nipped at.

I would say a year and half at the most. He looks very young. You can tell when they get older as their fins get rougher/grayish.

Oh hush! I meant snails and you aren't the op! I'll swish you.

That really isn't ok. The "containers" can easily break which means you will fall on the beta and likely kill it. Thailand has completely different rules then from what the US has.

I never said that any female can live together. Some females are really aggressive, so you can't pick those.

You just have to find a beta that doesn't try to attack their inmates. A Female is easier to put in a community. I used to have a sorority but I wouldn't recommend that as they are A LOT of work, time, and energy.

Lots of people are putting low temptered male betas(1) in with peaceful community fish. Now they are doing two males which is stupid, but that is my opinion.

I would say then look into a 5 gallon...

Looks like both males.

Did you crush the email then feed them to the fish? That's the best way

How many gallons? What kind of beta? If you want a community with betas you need at least a 10 gallon. 20 gallon imo is way better. You could do ember tetras, chili rasboras, cardinal tetras, etc.

Females are more round and blump. Males are longer.

I see a male. A female isn't as long or doesn't have pointy fins. Thus picture does.

Apple snails are much bigger? Like the size of a fist.

Though if you aren't a beta breeder you shouldn't put your fish in a alcohol bottle. Your beta should be put in an 2.5 gallon tank minimum. If you have a king beta then a 10 gallon is minimum.

Yup agree. If you send a pic we could try to estimate the age but it's really just a guess at this point. How long have you had him from the time you got him?

That is a male. Also I used to have one female in my 60 gallon. She was full of eggs but waiting for a male. She was always guarding and nipping at the others, so I moved her to her own tank with a male. Easiest thing to do. They are great community dish until you put a pair together.

Bent spine or tbs could have been the problem. What are your water conditions?

A pond snail. You likely have a mystery snail as Apple snails are illegal in many states.

I feed mine shrimp pellets, algae wafers(for the bristle nose), brine shrimp, blood worms (once a week), earthworms, etc

Wait yes I do. 56 dollars for three of them! No.

I don't see any orange lasers on aquatic arts.

Hahahaha I know you do. I know you have been wanting them for a while. Just been waiting. Let's hope they survive. My third batch of bristle nose plecos are here! The male did a great job until he left them which then I had to save them they LOVE the zuchhiu so much. Fat belly's. And I will...

Banjo catfish are hard to keep period.

Yes, but my pair is too fat! As for my blue spotted corydoras I got some eggs!:)

Hello! :) have you cycled your tank yet? What kind of fish? Some fish are more sensitive to water parameters than others. Otos are one of those sensitive fish.

They are even worse when not kept in a good group as well. What kind of pleco? Bristle nose? Rubber lip? Common? (Hopefully not)

Have you heard of guppy bites? And micro pellets? They are small enough for neons.

And why were you searching for me! Stalker! Haha no jk. But doubledutch wad the first one to reach out to me. Well technically it was jdhef, but he has just been busy lately.
