No , please not the duckweed . I have a family I need to spend time with them not trying to remove duckweed:lol:

Rainbowfish are ugly. They have such a weird shape. It starts small then goes big then small again. Pick a size and stick to it Please don't hurt my family

They will be fine. Some say the maximum is 2 days some say 2 weeks. I believe it is closer to 2 weeks but in either case you will be fine

Hey there nothing to add on the cycle just want to share my experience with deep tanks which admittedly has been negative The tank has bigger a need for aeration due to the limited susrface area Stocking wise it is much more hard to find appropriate stocking since nearly all fish use the...

Hey kwi Welcome to the hobby !:hi: To answer your questions The must haves on equipment are a heater,a filter, thermometer and very importantly a test kit for all fish and tanks. Other than that I recommend a gravel vacuum, light,net, fan and some hiding spots. I recommend live plants because...

Hey all So the whole issue first started about 5 months ago and I have currently removed well over 2 dozens of snails. I added some new plants in the tank and they obviously still had some snail eggs on them. One hatched and I let it grow. Turns out it was a ramshorn. A bit later( maybe 2 weeks)...

Pothos,spider plants are very good even some species of orchids(only the ones that are epiphytes) can work but they are not so effective Read this blog post for more info: https://www.myaquariumclub.com/terrestrial-plants-in-the-aquarium-21135.html

Yeah they do help indeed but terrestrial plants are so much more effective

If it turns out you do have ammonia in the tap water you can prepare the water for the water change 1 day before and add some pothos to it. Pothos is very good at absorving nitrogenous waste and especially ammonia so you should have 0 ammonia after that There are also other plants that can work...

They do look like cory eggs to me too. But after 1 week the gourami or the cories themselves should have snacked on them, they should have grown fungus and/ or they should have hatched as @essjay . If it turns out they are cory eggs the look infertile to me as fertile ones usually gte a brownish...

Hey all First of all I would understand if this was removed because it was posted in another aquarium forum or because it isn't allowed here. If so sorry to bother and waste your time mods. So this was posted in another aquarium site today and because I personally can't donate due to issues...

Pea puffers are ugly, not cute ugly. Just ugly same with rainbowfish

Definitely. Some of the bacteria would be dislodged and fall. Just do it directly in your moms media and not in the water to help them a bit. If you have a way (cercamic media etc.) adding some of the media from the maintank to the small will definitely help

Siamese algae eaters, amano shrimp , bristlenose plecos snails like the clithon corona are all good choices Other than that I would recommend trying to find the cause of the algae. It is always a better option than adding to the bioload There are also other options but are far more dangerous...

If they seem to big It is possible that they were born a couple of days back and have started to come out more. Other than that it could be a lack of oxygen but quit unlikely unless you see them gasping and trying to ripple the water surface. Have you ever had baloon molly fry again?

No plant additives. I have tried frogbit but ended up just being a very expensive snail salad for my apple snail

Here come the pics.Any feedback on how to improve how it looks is more than welcome.note: thelean leave on the anubias is the new one note the

Hmm that's something to think about, Maybe angling it in a different way will help reduce the light intenisty. I will give that a test

The val has been planted there for about 4-5 months now. I have active tropica concentrated substrate capped with sand. The light is on for 8 hours a day and I am doing weekly 50% water changes with filter maintenance and algae scrubbing. I'll post here with photos in a bit

For small grain simply hovering it slowly above the sand should work. For bigger grain using a gravel vacuum is best. I like to also go in with some tweezers and stab the substrate some times to move it and stop any dangerous gases form accumulating

2 gallons can work if needed and if you are an experienced fish keeper. But if you are buying a new tank I would go bigger , 5+ gallons. 2 gallons doesn't give enough water for dilution and the smallest mistake can cost you.

Hey guys. Thanks for answering My GH is 226 and ph 7.4 so that shouldn't be the issue. My valisneria is probably jungle val though I can not remember for sure so that might be the issue My light had no info to come with it. It is acrappy chinese light which I now found is 4W so that must be the...

Hey all My planted 45L tank is having some issues . I don't add Co2 and I have the light that came with the tank. I have a water wisteria , anubias , bacopa caroliniana , valisneria and some remnants of dwarf hairgrass. I am seeing lush and healthy new growth but all the old leaves get filled...

Hey Ap Ok so, the lady at the petstore didn't really give you the best of advice. She advised for a fish-in cycle which is really stressfull for the fish and oftentimes they don't make it. The cloudiness in the water is a bacterial bloom , the nitrifying bacteria are now starting to show...
