Will christmas moss work? That’s the only moss I could find at LFS

Oh lmao I’m going to see how it works out... I put some gravel on top of the plant to hopefully weight it down a bit. XD the gourami got a little annoyed with my arm in the tank so he bit me. Guess I’ll have to make do with a stick or something when the HC floats up again. In the meantime can...

Thing is the light is very strong and technically CO2 should be going strong as I probably just barely overstocked the tank, need to wait a couple more days to see if it’s successful or not but is there a way to get the HC to stay on the substrate? It’s annoying to see the corydoras dig it up...

help... I’m not complaining much this 18gallon tank has my two Dwarf gouramis(third one of mine died last week due to illness, he had dropsy and when I dissected the body, which isn’t easy for me I found out he had organ failure, organs had yellow and white patches, lucky for me I spotted it...

It’s not eating( still in quarantine) I recall he ate a bit when in the larger tank I’m kinda worried that he will starve himself to death. What do you guys think should I put him back or should I leave him in quarantine and hope that he gets better? (Symptoms: lose of colour, inactivity, loss...

Oh the kit can only measure ammonia and nitrites. And the tank is 15 gallon?(didn’t measure just an estimate from when I do water changes. I asked my friend who owns a couple of good looking successful aquariums and he said depending on the nature 3 DGs can be kept together. Just have plenty of...

Is it some infection, injury or could it be iridovirus?!(please please please not be the last I really liked this fish)

i bought 3 dwarf gourami last month they were relatively healthy with not much violence together. The most they did was flash and chase each other no actual nipping etc. in contrast to other’s belief they are peaceful most of the time except when feeding then they start chasing. But 2 weeks ago...

i have java ferns marimo moss ball but I have no idea what this is can someone help identify?

It’s a new addition and I can’t remember the readings as I got the tank water tested at my local fish shop and the guy said it was properly cycled

It’s side fins and anal fins are blue and it’s the only one out of three that has this color

Albino corydora has a shiny white blue fin im Worried that it’s fin rot or some other issue is it normal?

Thanks for the support! My three shrimp is alive after this period of time and even has molted. Feeling better and having the water tested by a local near my home fish shop I am glad to say the cycle has been established. It took only a short period of time cause the tank had props that were in...

last casualty. RIP buddy. I’m going to wait quite a bit before I restock the tank with fish probs a dwarf gourami. For now it’s just the shrimp

Anyways thanks for the help... I think it was too much metal in the tap water. I changed the water but sadly two didn’t make it and the last one which is my longest surviving cherry named buddy(other two were bought recently) is looking like it’s on its last legs of life. I inspected the two...

I’m also obliged to mention that the fish were jumping right after I introduced them to the tank which is rare cause I never saw them do that before. I’m guessing some other bacteria/fungi was present or water perimeter was off from the start. I also used anti chlorine

I do not posess a testing kit but in my opinion I do not think it is ammonia poisoning as the water was put in like 2 hours ago unless ammonia built up too quickly(does ammonia built up this quickly[stock 3 yamato shrimp 3 cherry barb couple of plants and Marimo moss ball]. It’s under stocked so...

Can it be that the water flow is too strong?

they used to live in a very small tank but they were fine. However many people told me to get a bigger tank and I did, putting in some plants gravel and 3 Yamato shrimp together with my 3 cherry barbs. However now they show clamped fins and regularly stop swimming to float to the bottom or be...
