I replied to someone else on this thread with my paremeters if you want to check that out. 👍🏻 I also just took a video for you, but I can't figure out how to post it. It's only giving me the option to share a photo.
The ammonia test is 0.
My other test is
GH: about 30
KH: about 40
PH: Between 6.5 and 7.0
Nitrite is 0 and Nitrate is 0
I do 30% water changes every week and only put spring water into the tank.
All the fish look wonderful and plump, no signs of other illness. They also eat very well.
I have a bubble wall in my aquarium and I was wondering how to get MORE oxygen in my tank, other than live plants. Should I put in another bubbler, like an air-stone and have them run at the same time?
My little cories just don't seem to be getting enough oxygen. I also keep my filter running...
I just tested the water with my ammonia tester kit, and everything came back fine. Still unsure what is causing her to be stressed, but I would like to thank you again for telling me to get the ammonia tester. It's nice to know if my water is safe for them or not and it's already brought me...
I change about 25% to 30% of their water every Sunday. She's kept in a 10 gallon with two other corydoras.
No new fish, and nothing new has been added to the tank, other than a new filter cartridge. I did leave the old filter cartridge in the tank as well, until the new one grows some good...
Thanks so much! I just ordered an ammonia tester, though I don't know when it will arrive. All the stores in my area were out of stock so I ordered one from Chewy. Fingers crossed it gets here fast.
I have a heater and a completely separate thermometer already. My thermostat stays at 71 F. in my house, so that may be too cold for them? I can't seem to find an affordable heater that stays at 75 F.
I'm not sure of my ammonia levels, because I only have a test kit that tells me the GH, KH, PH, Nitrate and Nitrite. But I did just do a 30% water change and her gill movement hasn't slowed down at all.
I also have one other bronze cory and a panda cory in with her- which makes a total of 3...
How low can I
How low do corydoras like the tempt to be? I've seen some conflicting answers when I google what temperature they thrive in. I also can't find a heater that keeps the temp at 75, which is what I want it to be. The heaters I have tried always say they will keep the water at 75 and...
I noticed a couple of days ago that my big female bronze cory was panting. Normally they move their mouth/gills when eating food, but she does this constantly now and has never shown this behavior before. Other than her mouth/gills moving rapidly, she also goes up for air a bit more than usual-...
