    Pygmy Corydoras tail issue.

    Will do. Did about 30% today and will do that the rest of the week. Out of curiosity, how long did it take for your guys tails to grow back?

    Pygmy Corydoras tail issue.

    Okay great, we've been pretty anal about testing the water and have it stable and are happy with the readings. We have sand and we clean that when we do our changes. We have 4 pygmy Cory's but are going to get more this week as the shop only had 4 left last week.

    Pygmy Corydoras tail issue.

    Sorry to hear you had a similar issue but it's great the tails grew back! Did you use any medicine at all, or just frequent water changes? Thank you.

    Pygmy Corydoras tail issue.

    Hi folks, 1 of my pygmy Cory's has a strange tail issue. It appears he doesnt have any fins on it. We've only had him since Thursday just passed and only noticed this now. Any ideas what this could be and how we go about helping to regrow the fins? Please see pic for details. Thank you.

    Chlorine in water.

    Hi guys, So I'm in the middle of cycling my tank and doing water tests when required. I have not changed any water in 3 days at which time I added water conditioner. My test showed 0 chlorine. Now today, its showing some chlorine. Why would this be? Thank you.

    Cycling a second hand tank.

    Of course, I know 9 times out of 10 that they are just staff and know very little about fish. Luckily the guy I talk with is extremely knowledgeable and has kept fish for a long, long time. I trust him. Thank you for the advice, I do appreciate all input. We have also been doing a huge amount...

    Cycling a second hand tank.

    Hi Byron, Thank you for your input. Yes the tank and equipment was from another hobbyist. We do not currently have any fish and have used the sponges and rings that were used prior to start our cycle. Our local fish store said this would be fine. Should we replace the sponges and rings at this...

    Hi Naughts, Thank you for your input. Yes the chlorine has gone up in the last day or 2 so we have added some more dechlorinator. I will get an ammonia tester tomorrow and see what the levels are like. We are not in any rush to get fish in the tank and want conditions to be ideal before we...
