Hey all, I just set up a twenty gallon a few weeks ago and I also have a ten gallon that I've had for about 3 years. I consider myself a newbie because I am still pretty ignorant.
My questions:
I noticed when I vaccuumed the other day that I have some little babies in my tank. They are hiding under a big mushroom and there's about 5 or so of them. I vacuumed up about four dead babies as well. :-(
1) What can I do to make sure they are getting food and how can I ensure that they will live to adulthood?
Also-
I separated one of my new fish from the rest in the 20 gallon because she was being a bully and chasing a couple others away from the food. I put her in my ten gallon with my tetras and she is now behaving herself.
2)Was this mean of me? Is this just normal fish behavior and I overreacted?
Before I moved her she would often just hang out in the middle and wag back and forth for a very long time.
3) Why? What does this mean?
Okay, 3 questions. Sorry!
