    Is there something wrong with my platy?

    Ye angel makes it hard to add more. That takes up a ton of space. Filter is sponge with ceramic rings and activated carbon. Hope it is just pregnant. No one likes poorly fish. ?

    Hygrophila Siamensis 53B

    What I received looked ok but I was unable to move anything without it falling apart. Tissue and roots was very knotted but stems and leafs just disintegrated when I touched them. It was like the stems/box was crushed during transport. I’ll keep in mind about floating them first to help get them...

    Is there something wrong with my platy?

    Ye I never checked a website for stocking. I just sort of looked and guessed. I asked on here the other day and someone said it was full. Just some soft and hard water mixed I needed to sort out. I have a fluval flex planted 57ltr 12 gal. Filter is the back section. I change 20 litres every 7-9...

    Is there something wrong with my platy?

    she might just be totally chilled about everything then. If it fits I would go get another if you can. I couldn’t deal with the fry. I thought it would overloaded the tank way to quick. (That was when I first started with the hobby to be fair). Will be interested to see if anyone else has an...

    Is there something wrong with my platy?

    When I had the male with them, the 2 females would hide at spawning time. 1 Male 1 female could also induce stress to the female. I was told with live spawning fish you should keep a ratio 2F to 1M to help reduce stress on the female. Yes both mine atm hide/stay behind decorations, I have...

    Is there something wrong with my platy?

    Hello. I’ll be totally honest I have no idea. I do have 2X female platys one is the same as yours the other is blue/orange. Both fat round things and always have been. I never thought anything was wrong. There used to be a male with them and I thought they was pregnant but they have not changed...

    Hygrophila Siamensis 53B

    They was only planted last night so not much to show. It’s the small things below the platy. Tanks been set up with star grass, Java moss and another plant for about 10-11 months all growing really well (cut and re-scapped about 4 days ago). I added the plant in question, cryptocoryne X willisii...

    Hygrophila Siamensis 53B

    Hello. I have just got some hygrophila siamensis 53B from tropica 1-2 grow. When I removed them from the packaging all the stems and leaves had gone a dark green slime like. After removing the tissue thing from the bottom I was left with just the roots and a tiny bit of stem left so I have...

    Have I overstocked?

    I think I would have to keep it running just for those fish. I was always thinking to just use it for a quarantine tank but know I now about the different hardness fish like I will have todo for the fish’s well-being. Thanks.

    Have I overstocked?

    The water suppliers website says Typical water hardness is soft Hardness Clarke is 2.31. other information is about where it is from and other stuff. Above makes no sense to me tbh. Does it make any difference that the fish in my tank a all from my LFS that’s about 2 miles away so tap waters...

    Have I overstocked?

    Ok thanks, I didn’t think danios was my mine priority tbh I thought it would have been the angel. Daughter got a small 10 ltr tank for Christmas last year as a present from her uncle with 2X danios and a platy. I felt super uncomfortable with them in such a small tank so went out and got this...

It looks like roots) it is planted with a lot of Java moss on the wood, a small amount of star grass...
