    Nipping

    Thank you!!! CT That' is the only possibility I guess. We just separated male & female guppies due to increasing population around 2-3months ago. :) Two male guppies are usually actively swimming / chasing each other. But they don't bother tetras or rasboras. I do not want to put the injured...

    Nipping

    I just noticed one of my cardinal tetra lost 1/3 of his (her) tail fin. We just cleaned the tank on last Friday with 40% PWC. (0, 0, <10) It is hard to believe to have fin rot and/or fin nipping in our community tank. Size: 36G Bow Fishes: 2 Male Guppies, 9 Rasboras, 5 Neons, 2 Cardinals...

    Ding, Dong, the Ich is gone!

    :iagree: There might be some left in your tank. 3-5 more days treatment will be good enough. And slowly lower the temperature. (e.g. by 2 degree per day)

    Guppies in a shrimp tank?

    If you are located nearby our house, we are happy to give them to you. (Ouch!! NY to Portland) I don't think LFS will accept fries. All the remaining juveniles are female. Will the LFS usually accept only females?

    Guppies in a shrimp tank?

    We put 16 RCS with 3 albino cories & 80-100 guppy fries. (It's a 20G. Medium planted. 78F, PH: 7.2, Water parameter: 0,0,10) Our guppy fries vary from 3 weeks old to 3 months old. 3 months old juvenile are getting bigger. Should I consider relocate them to other tank to protect RCS? Well, I...

    Red Cherry shrimp growth rate

    We started RCS about a month ago. Probably, It's been too early for our case. We put 16 RCS with 3 albino cories & 80-100 guppy fries. Do you think we have a chance of increasing RCS population? (It's a 20G. Medium planted. 78F, PH: 7.2, Water parameter: 0,0,10)

    Filter upgrade question.

    I am running 325GPH + 200GPH = 525GPH on 36G tank without any problem. (Your will be 300GPH (AC70) + 160GPH (Whisper 30) = 460GPH on 29G.) I believe it depends on the couple of things. 1. Depends on your fish. Some fishes like quite flow. Your fishes might swim too actively or hard to escape...

    Filter upgrade question.

    From what I heard, you have to keep the media over 2 weeks. (I kept old filter media for 4 weeks and no nitrite or ammonia spike at all.) Why not running both filter if your current filter isn't too noisy? I am running 2 filters and use one filter whenever I have to setup QT tank.

    Topwater Schoolers

    Yes, most tetras are mid-lower schoolers. Real top dweller - hatchets (Your top should be completely sealed) Mid-Top dweller - Most rasboras & danios My pick is Rasbora espes or Harlequin.
