I got 9 embers and 1 cherry shrimp who hitchiked (11 gallon cube decently planted) I have them for about 2 weeks, the first week the would come out when i wasnt at my room but hide when im in the room. I went on vacation for a week and let my parents feed them. I think they overfed them because...

I asked a question a couple nights ago on the planted chit chat part of the site about my plants and everyone was very helpful so I wanted to check with everyone about my stocking list for it. I already have three mystery snails in there, and plan to get three scarlet badis, and eleven ember...

Hello Everyone! Im new here. I've had my fish for quite a few months now and they've all been doing fine. I watch them daily so usually notice anything thats off or strange behaviour. One out of my six ember tetras has a little bulge under them and seems to be at the tops breathing radically...

I’ve got one fat looking ember tetra chasing other ember tetras away from the middle of the tank during feeding time. Everyone else is getting along fine, it’s just this one that’s being rude. It’s also quite fat and slightly larger than the others so I’m not sure if it’s a female about to lay...

I added some more Lemon Bacopa (Bacopa Carolinana) to my tetra tank along with 4 more amber tetra today. The amber tetra seem to like to hang out in the little forest of bacopa I made at that end of the tank. The glow light and neon tetra tend to hang out in the middle and the other end of the...

Hi All, I have a 15g tank that has 4 dario dario (I believe 2 male 2 female based on their behavior and coloration), 8 ember tetras a mystery snail and some RCS. Its been cycled and established for months now and so far everything is good. Its heavily planted with driftwood, floating plants...

Hi all, I currently have a 105 litre planted, community tank that houses 12 cardinal tetras, 7 ember tetras and one male betta. The tank looks a bit sparse so I was wondering if I could fit in any more fish (tetras if possible)? Thanks in advance!

Hello, I was wanting some stocking advice on my 37l aquarium, its a 40x40x25 aquarium, more of a cube shape. I have soft water. I currently have 6 ember tetras and 2 Bolivian tetras. I was wanting to maybe add some more ember tetras but I do not want to overstock. the water quality is always...

I was able to find a little more anacharis and decided to start another Anacharis forest for my ember tetra. I planted it yesterday and my ember tetra moved right in. All 5 of them were in it this morning. The last anacharis forest was at the other end of the tank before I lost most of it. I...

Hi guys, I’m completely new to the fish world and have been told to take aqadvisor calculator with a grain of salt so I’m looking for a second opinion on the plan for my first tank. I wanted this tank to be full of peaceful fish after seeing my sister struggles with aggressive female bettas...

Salutations hobbiest. After months of debating whether I should get a lizard or fish I chose (drum roll please) Fish. I now have a 10 gallon for my female standard veiltail betta. After changing and rearranging I found she did well with the 2 cherry barbs and 3 albino cherries, where as she was...

A few days ago I put my betta and 6 newly bought ember tetras into their 12 gallon tank.   All was well except just now after I fed them, I was watching them, and one of the tetras was following Kasai, my betta around, and nipping his tail Kasai seemed pretty flustered and flashed himself away...

Any thoughts on 1m, 3f sparkling gouramis and 12 ember tetras in a 20gallon tank?  Would the embers nip the gouramis? Would the gouramis be territorial (and the embers take any of the brunt).     If this would work, would there be space for a clean up crew? What would you recommend?   This is...
