Most definitely am, don't know if i told you but I got this glass one in the picture for 40 bucks and a acrylic the same size for 45 had to get a lid for this glass tank for another 20 but for 60 bucks i think its a good tank. I'm refinishing the acrylic then i'll do something completely new fw...

Can see one of the pics. Good luck! how many gals total on that tank? looks small from the pic for 2 dps was told atleast 5-10g each depending on planting. they're definitely an interesting species good luck on the new tank!

If you haven't been testing your water then there are a million variables that could be it. who knows the hardness or ph of the water you're using plus it sounds overstocked as is and probably even more so before the deaths occured though deaths happen to everyone eventually. i lost two corys...

my rainbow wouldn't stop chasing corys in a 3ft by 18inch tank hopefully the extra 2ft help but i only had 7 small corys and the rainbow on bottom so similar stocking ratio...

Thanks ninja you guys are awesome. I'm happy my tank is good water wise. I was worried cause i didn't test for a while was waiting for the api master kit to get here. Happy it is now. I'm not going to add anything for atleast a month. I've added the java recent the honey gourami recently those...

Thanks for the info ruskull I have bad news I awoke to find the second petco sterbai cory to seem lethargic. All my peppered were happy to have the light on, same with the rams. This one cory was on a green melon sword leaf just sitting there for an hour. So I netted him, he didn't resist the...

Well I only have one small 1 inch sunset honey it doesn't show any interest in other fish my rams even though the bottom has lots of wood both insist on ramming eachother for dominence the other sterbai is looking fatigued. He's all alone try's to hang with peppers but they tend to school separately

I use ten to twenty percent supplemented RO water the stuff I get from the ro machine at Von's, walmarts seven 11 its 100% pure of chemicals and additives has 07ppm of good minerals so yes when I use this the hardness and ph might drop some at max like .1ph and maybe 5-10ppm lower on the tds...

It sucks but that was one of the corys that would be getting donated they didn't look amazing healthy to begin with came from petco. does that water test look good to you guys? I haven't been doing them long but i think those shades are 0ppm

Its adjustable yes the bettas tank is big for a betta atleast 10g standard rectagular glass has a whipser 10 filter and the heater is a adjustable one so i can drop the heat as needed right now its warm enough here in CA that i havent been heating his water.       On to something else. One of...

Will do the Cory's are flourishing on Cory pellets and whatever Alegae they scavenge on their own. But I will feed Alegae too how much pellets/wafers/flake do you give daily I usually give the 7 Cory's a few pellets maybe 4 or 5 cause the rams want a taste usually plus a good pinch or two small...

I'll change plans then. i'll keep them stocked until I find a suitable store that has atleast 5-7 in stock so they can hopefully be bought with a decent school, then once that happens i'll get the ottos or nerite snail and some rasboras to add to the pack.

No matter where i go these sterbai aren't going to have a perfect home, they'll be "donated" to the local store where they have no population probably sold off at a discount quickly to someone unknowledgable and unsuspecting I'd find another few but these two were bought when i just got...

Currently have alittle alegae on some plants and fungus on one of the newer wood pieces the bolivians don't pay any attention to the other fish. Just eachother seems like one owns the hill and cave and the other owns the flat ground to the left of the tank. my honey plays in the watersprite and...

I have a 40USG tank thats 3ft long 20inches tall and 14 wide. So far it has 8 harlequin rasboras (was nine til one got too curious and sucked into a syphon he was a young one and didn't make it) 7 corys cats (two sterbai, five spotted) 2 bolivians rams (was three but donated one cause all three...

I know of two local fish stores that sell in house made tanks for a dollar per gallon. You should be able to acquire a 10g for ten bucks. Then get a filter and heater on amazon to save a few bucks compared to walmarts pricing. I set up my bettas ten gallon for about 30 bucks. Lighting is a...

Lol exploded? the tank broke? or the levels "Exploded" bolivian rams should be good with that setup. I had a ebr pair they're way more finicky about ph and softness and they did fine in my citys horrible water. I softened it with peat and stuff but it still was beyond hard. i love rams goodluck man!

Yeah i used some media and there's all live plants plus the tss bateria. Used the whole bottle as it recommended for a new tank and It's shown good results before. took the gourami i had out and donated him for an angelfish they gave me a cool golden marble angelfish for him he's a juvenile so...

Got the tank up today, started it with 15gallons of cycled water and 25 of treated water with tetra safe start and api stresscoat. I just transferred over the majority of my 20g setup. 9 harlequin rasboras, 7 corys, a rainbow shark Oh I used a fluval ecobright led lighting system its like 30...

Upgraded to a 50g truvu acrylic tank. This one's getting passed on to the family. I'm going to keep most of the fish i had in the 20g including the shark for now he's the least aggressive fish in the tank I've never seen him show any interest in anything but his caves and plants. Cory's and...

Oh and the fluro hood isn't powering on. So i'm gonna toss it cause it got corroded and geta nice led overhang light.   Here's pictures of the access holes in the top, and one of the tank itself. I know i can run a canister with it but can you run a plain old intank filter or hang on filter with it?

It's been cleaned well, going to see what i can get for a filters at petco and walmart. if i don't like what i see i'm going to get a fluval online. Pictures will be uploaded soon guys ^^ So far i'm moving my rainbow shark, rasboras, and corydoras in. might get another school to go with and call...

Paid 45 bucks for a TRUVU acrylic tank. Saw the tank retailed for 300+ when new for the same demensions. Holds water fine. Was really dirty when i picked it up but now after cleaning it doesn't look half bad. Don't know what i'm going to do with it yet. The length is 36inches width is a hair...

My walmart isn't as bad as most. The new tank need to be cleaned and i'm going to tank 10gallons of bacteria filled water from the 20g and 30 gallons of reverse osmosis water and start the new tank with a fresh fluval canister. i'll use some of my bio media from my current tanks in there too. It...

Water conditions are perfect fish are stressed but I got a 40gal plexi off craigslist to go get after work so that will help I can isolate the two female gouramis

So I have a 24x12x18 20gal and It has 3 dwarf gourami 2 fem 1 male along with some schools rasboras and Cory's. the male gourami is harassing the two females one spends most her day on the little dugout cave on the side of some driftwood. The other female still is active in swimming around the...

First pic is the male gourami seems to be pretty good shape. Most active of all three and definately has a appetite, second pic is the one i fear is closest to death. sitting at the bottom right now though has periods of good activity. Third pic is the other girl who doesn't sit on the bottom...

The only fish I'm worried about are the Gouramis all the tank mates seem fine. Not sure if my gouramis are stressed due to their new surroundings or if they are sick. They all have interest in food, but aren't extremely active maybe i need to add some floating plants. I heard that can ease...

I have a dwarf gourami that has been in my tank for about 6 days. Tanks water is good and everyone else seems fine one gourami is sitting on the bottom under the wood. The other has slight marks on the fins but looks to be fine the fins are still intact just has splotches on them alittle bit...

Walmart has them they also come with a 90 day warranty, if the fish don't make it just bring the receipt back and you get a full refund no fish needed. Added a background to the glass and java fern today ill take new pictures and let everyone see my progress. Tetra pride plant ferts are on the...

Whats ur price range fluval is the way to go. I can link you a canister that sit in the cabinet your tank is on that way it bumps up the stocking level of the 10g alittle or a fluval in tank filter is always good they both offer much more filtration then the standard filter.     Here's 4...
