So my CO2 tank unexpectedly ran out while I was away for a few days (think something came loss) and now my dwarf hairgrass has becomes riddled with BBA :swear: sigh. and the tank was doing so well too. I don't really know how to treat this one. I guess I can trim the stuff down to almost the...

I've used it to get rid of BBA. You can put it directly into the tank. I usually wait until I do a water change so that I can apply the H2O2 to the portions that become exposed when I take the water out (more effective that way). I've put it into the tank, though, with no adverse on the fish...

such as? there are apparently a whole bunch. and how many? a pair?

I have a 15gallon planted whose fish inhabitant population is dwindling (had most of these fish for about 1.5yrs now, neons and cardinals mostly). Besides the ABN pleco there is maybe 2 neons left. So before I just restock with more neons / cardinals / guppies or something I figured I'd see if...

pm sent about hairgrass

crypt spirals and retrospiralis both get rather tall

periodically MG will have some in stock: http://bobstropicalplants.com/plantlist.html none there right now, but he had some not too long ago (I got mine from him). very reasonably priced and plants in good condition

by the way, how long should a 2.5lb tank last? it's been about 3 months on this tank

alright, i'll call them up and see if they can refill it on site. if not i'll just have them order a new tank. thanks :grinyes:

from my understanding Chytrid doesn't do much to fish, just to amphibians (has something to do with the material that makes up their skin / scales). but it didn't look like Chytrid at all, at least not at the end. my tank is at 80F anyway (not the one the frog is currently in, but my main tank).

i know that's an option but i'm a broke college student so paying $70 for another tank seems a bit excessive

I have a pressurized CO2 system on my 15 gallon that is using a 2.5lb tank. The place I get my tanks from, though, doesn't usually carry 2.5lb tanks (they randomly had 2 when I was looking for one when I set up the tank; when I needed to get a filled tank they gave me the other of the pair), so...

she didn't make it :cry: I had to go back home for the weekend and came back to find her pretty much consumed by whatever fungus it was. i really thought she was taking a turn for the better, but there definitely was a lot of damage already. apparently it was just too much :( I still have...

So the fungus seems to be going away but the poor frog's leg is a mess. the webbing in her foot seems to be completely destroyed and it looks like the fungus ate away a lot of the flesh (to the point that it looks like some of the small bones in her leg are exposed). is there anything I can...

Thanks for the info. I've read about that treatment in the past and it apparently does have some success associated with it (again, did a lot of research on Chytrid when I lost those 2 frogs before). That being said, I'm rather wary of calling it Chytrid. Yes it does look like what some...

there isn't a heater in the tank so the temp is already in the low 70s (hadn't planned on having them in the separate tank this long but had some issues with my 15g). I did a large water change last night when I saw it wasn't going away. I'll keep up with the wc's and add some salt to the...

The only other animals in the tank is another ADF. They're in my 10g that I was using when I had to cycle my 15gallon I had 2 frogs in the past (probably about 1.5yr ago) that I think died from Chytid fungus. Never confirmed it, but all the signs were there. That being said, I was under the...

I noticed this afternoon that my female ADF had this odd whitish substance stuck to her foot. Figuring it was just her shedding, I left it alone. But tonight it's still there so I'm a big concerned. This is what it looks like: Any ideas? It still might be shedding but it got stuck on...

she's not discolored. I had 2 frogs die of a bacterial infection about 1.5yrs ago and she isn't showing any signs of that (one of the symptoms associated with this type of bacterial infection was the frog would try and get out of the tank). she's been in the tank for almost 2 weeks. the tank...

Generally the frogs stay around the bottom of the tank (I've had these 2 for over a year now). They do their little pop up to the surface for air thing, but they never spend any time floating around up there. yesterday, though, she was not only just floating around up there but was actively...
