The tank I bought came with the light I have. Is the best option to get another light or to get floating plants to dim the light more?

I was always under the assumption too much light caused this. So originally tank was 26 and it was slowly bleaching like slightly at this point. I recently raised it to 28 and found my fish were out heaps more and doing their thing. Its a wisteria plant and my tall flowing plants that you can...

Yeah I wouldn't mind more plants just trying to get the right ones! I do have one though that is bleaching to the far left...maybe in the light too much? It's only on for 8 hours a day then I change it to the blue but still maybe that's too much? Thought?

Here the tank you so eagerly wanted to see 😊

Since this feed I took a step back. Everyone has an opinion on the fish hobby and not that I don't appreciate it, I take it with a pinch of salt. I've been researching and raised the temperature in my tank to 28. Much to everyone's advice I chose against it and added another 3 discus to my tank...

How can you tell it has excess mucus? Just so I know what to look out for. Will do a big food shop this weekend for them lol am I right in saying bloodworms are too high in protein and should only to be fed this a couple of times a week? I've read of people feeding pretty much only that with no...

I completely understand. As I've said I am a newbie so this is all a learning curve for me and I am trying to do what's best for the fish. I do have the turquoise discus it appears..dont know if this makes a difference. I have been told it's not until they get older their colours start to become...

I keep hearing this. At this stage I have a planted tank with ornaments all fish get on well and looking at getting a larger fish tank in time. They are all babies at this point the only issue is the discus. Nitrate is 0,,,ph is 7.6nwhich is high for discus I have now been told although they...

Appreciate the feedback. At this stage they all get along really well. When you say in this condition..do you mean my discus being solo? I have a gravel substrate but doesn't appear to be an issue as it hides in its castle. Catfish does hide in the same space as the BGK but getting more spaces...

I'm limited to the fish because of my BGK but I love him/her and will work around it.

Okay I am super new to this so please no judgement. I have had discussions with an aquarium expert who has been super honest from the get go since I purchased my tank but wasn't there for my purchase of my discus. Including the 2 discus I had there were 5 fish in total in a 240l tank. As...

About a month ago purchased my first fish tank ever! Always wanted one and finally after years of contemplating bought a 240L tank. Did all the right things stocked with live plants and ornaments. Beautiful! Anyway got to purchasing my first fish. We bought a black ghost knife fish (i know what...
