    Transitioning tiny fish fry from infusoria

    Have you tried either making the hikari first bites sink or float. I transitioned my danio fry by putting hikari in every day until they realized that it was good.

    I have turned down the amount of hours of light to remove algae and I have a hood light at the top but I dont know how many watts. I use thrive all in one fertilizer.

    Egg hatching problems

    Well I do my hatching in like a 1/2 gallon or 1 gallon tub so it needs to be changed often but it just depends on how big your hatching container is.

    Egg hatching problems

    i have a small male and have no problem hatching the eggs out. It could be because either you are not getting rid of all of the fungus eggs, you are not doing water changes 3 times a day on container or the temp change during the water changes is too drastic.

    Amazon swords

    I have some amazon sword questions. Do mine look like they are doing well? The tips are dark because the plants used to be blocking them from getting light but I rearranged the plants so it shouldent happen again. Also how do I get mine to send out runners? I read that you can leave the light...

    cory fry floating

    I have seen mine which are about 2 months old sometimes swim around at the top I dont know if they are trying to swim down or what but I think that they are just trying to get air from the surface. Could there be too much current which makes it hard for them to reach the surface?

    10 Gallon stocking ideas.

    I would probably do 1 gourami in a 10 gallon or instead like 6 danios. I wouldent mix them seing as gouramis can be aggressive.

    Any way to get rid of this?

    I have my light on for 12 hours and I do dose fertlizer. But it is only on some of my plants. Mostly my anacharis and hygrophila and hornwort. It is not on any of my other plants for some reason.

    Help on a new tank

    To fit a heater in their you would probably need to remove some of the filter media. Most people put heaters into filters that are big so like a canister filter or something. How big is the tank? How deep is the water in the filter because it looks shallow and the filter would need to be submerged?

    Methylene blue for Cory eggs

    I use my finger to get them off of my plants and I rub them of into the container and they all seperate that way when one gets fungus they all dont. But if you use a credit card or razor blade they will stick together.

    Ya the eggs that I get never get that dark but it is probably because I have albinos.

    Methylene blue for Cory eggs

    I use methyline blue and the day before mine hatch I do 2 50% water changes on the container and then when they hatch make sure to do alot of water changes because I have had trouble keeping them alive.

    corydora fry questions

    But I dont think that is the reason that some died. I did have danio fry in the tank could they have eaten them because the first day I was missing a bunch but I just thought that they were hiding. I dident think that they would be able to eat them but just incase I moved them anyway.

    corydora fry questions

    I have noticed that I am missing most of the fry is it because the water is too high and they cant get to the surface because I saw one trying hard to get to the surface. I have been doing weekly water changes on the 10 gallon because it has alot of plants could that be the problem.
