Thanks!

I can’t do HOBs because of the lid on my tank. Is there another filter that’s good and semi cheap?

Great. I normally do a 70% weekly because it’s easy and keeps my tank clean

i am remodelling my tank but am stuck on if I should get a new filter or keep my old one. If I do upgrade which filter should I choose? My tank is a 100L tank. I have an aqua flow 300 but it’s very loud and hasn’t got very good flow strength. I’ve heard the JBL e902 is good but it’s just so...

Rhino goby, I think it’s a beautiful fish and is really cute IMO

Lol

Update! I’m an idiot and it works fine. Thanks for all the help but I think I did solution 2 and then 1. I recommend this product. Thanks

Will do

Recently I’ve been looking at fish and found some beatiful or interesting fish that aren’t really talked about so I thought why not make a thread where everyone can share their finds and help fish keepers spice up their hobby.

I did add both but only shook for 5 seconds. I’ll try shaking for the proper amount of time tomorrow and see what happens. Thanks

So I have just received the API master test kit and was testing all the liquids on my water. While doing this I noticed even after 5 minutes the colour of the ammonia test hadn’t changed (completely clear, the colour of the water before test) I followed the instructions and I’m wondering if...

Thanks! Really helpful suggestions, I love moss balls, and so do my amano shrimp!

So aegis sand is fine?

On another forum someone said that Argos play sand was to fine and so want great for cleaning so is there a slightly larger grain sand that wind harm the corys or their barbles?

I’m using my 25G tank, it has a super fish aqua flow 300. I might buy a new one because of the “real estate” of where an internal filter would be. Also the end amount of fish and invertebrates should be 2 kribensis 12-15 rummy nose tetra 6 bronze corydoras 4 endler guppies 3 amano shrimp 1...

I think I’m going to get the root tabs and liquid fertiliser along with frog bit. Watching a care video they said frog bit likes slow moving water. Should I get a new filter like a sponge filter or keep the filter I have? I looked at canister filters but a 100L (25G) tank doesn’t need a canister...

Slight misunderstanding, I am not getting rid of wood I am just getting a new piece of manzanita wood that fits the tank better. The piece I have is to tall and thin, I want a lond and thick piece of wood with multiple hiding areas in and around it. Sorry for the confusion

I did I didn’t think of slate, I though smooth pebble/river rocks because I think they could become a very natural cave and the corys won’t hurt themselves on it. That a good suggestion thanks

I’m going to use my 100l and just remodel it, so taking out the soil substrate and using the Argos play sand along with some live plants. I might also try my luck with some floater plants because my fish like hiding and it may be due to my lighting intensity. I’m going to remove my bristle nosed...

I think what I’m going to do is remove everything from my 100L tank, move my fish into my quarantine tank for the day and rebuild.

is this the play sand that people mean

I might also move the otocinclus if I do move the corys to the 30L because I would use the water the otocinclus are already in (100L)

They love the filter side of the tank and they swim as a group. I wouldn’t mind buying 6 more. I might rehome the bristle nose because it produces a lot of poop and eats the kribenses food and never cleans the tank.

Ok

The 100L tank (LxWxH) 68x35x48

Well what is his tap waters pH and GH because that can change what fish you could get

Ohhhhh.

In the 100L I have 2 kribemsis, 2 ototcinclus ( I had 5 but 3 died, I’m planning on buying 6 more) I have 9 rummy nose tetra but want to increase it to 12 and have 1 male endler guppy (from a previous tank) and 1 bristlenose pleco. I wouldn’t be against remodelling the tank (taking out the...

@Pixburgh29 what is you GH,pH,nitrate,nitrite and ammonia testing as?

So what should I do about the corys and would there be another catfish I could go for (not a pleco)

Thank you. I may hold off on getting panda garras and may just increase my shoal of harlequin Rasboras.

Also what should I do for water movement? I have the filter that came with the tank (U4 fluval filter) and I have a few plant but I’m planning on buy A LOT more. What else do I need for water circulation? I don’t wNt the water circulation to affect any of my other fish and right now the filter...

Should I move my corydoras and get 4 panda garrra’s? I have already got hikari carnivore sinking pellets and I feel like I would notice if my tank had ammonia because my other fish would also be keeling over, right? Thanks for all help :)

Honestly don’t know. When I went to buy the soil thought I would buy fluval stratum but a friend of mine who worked there told me to buy pond soil because it was cheaper and bigger. I have cycled the tank and I know this because I’ve had 4 tanks and watched so many videos on how to and done...

Also do really think it’s the soil? I don’t think I’ll be able to remove it all out of tank without removing everything and I don’t think that would be great. Will my other fish get ill? I do weekly water changes of about 50-80% because they’re only weekly. Would it just be better if I remove...

A Also am I able to buy a GH lowering product to help my fish?

Should I buy an api master test kit instead of strips?

Also i the picture it shows nitrate readings at around 0, I was going to buy a API master test kit but may just buy ammonia test strips tmrw. Thanks

In my 100L I have fluval stratum
