A school of Scarlet Badis would be awesome! (with other nano fish as dithers) I would recommend Emerald Eye Rasboras or Exclamation Point Rasboras.

Of course everyone hides besides the rabbit snail. Established for about 2 years now. Faux Blackwater as I can’t keep my GH down due to my water source. Everyone is doing quite well despite the slight hardness. Parameters Ammonia: 0ppm Nitrate: 10ppm Nitrite: 0ppm Ph: 7.0 GH: 8–12°GH KH: 4–8°KH...

I have ramshorns in the tank. Would these leeches become a problem for their population?

Thank you! Do you think it’s a snail leech? Looking up pictures I’m not too sure

I recently added hornwort I got from Pwilly on here, and I haven’t fed live food for a week, only freeze dried. Is it harmful? I took it out of the tank and put it in a turkey baster to look at it more. What should I do about it?

Woke up to this little creature this morning. It’s definitely alive, and is sucking on the wall of my aquarium. I’ve never seen this before. Looks like some kind of slug honestly. It contracts from a small spade shape to having a longer tail. Is it harmful? What the heck is it? My tetras keep...

I am honestly unsure looking at some more pictures, it hasn’t spread anywhere else besides the spider wood. And my snails have put a big dent in it, so it seems like they are interested in eating it.

I think it is BBA, I’ll take a photo right now Here’s the photo

Title says it all, I’ve tried removing it manually, rinsing it off, my snails even ate a large portion of it but it keeps staying on this specific piece of spider wood. I really don’t want it to spread. Could it have to do with my lighting?

I posted a thread about a TikTok I saw which had misinformation on betta sororities, which was taken down. My question is, can members on the forum post about things they see from other online sources? I understand that this could have caused more online traffic to their account, or gotten them...

I usually just thaw out any slightly freezer burnt food and use it since my freezer is especially cold, and I’d hate to be constantly waste food. But that’s just me, my frogs and fish have all eaten it thawed out before.

Do you have a grow out tank you could use for the younger barbs? I feel like they would probably get gobbled up and a lucky few will survive if you put them in. I’ve had experience with tiger and cherry barbs living with tetras and they can be territorial but not necessarily aggressive in large...

I have the same kind of Java fern in my shrimp tank, it will start producing lots of little babies and perk up soon.

Here he is! I’m unsure if he is actually a she but for now I’m going to call him Mufasa. Mufasa is actually an imperial tiger, which I’m actually stoked about. Look at his colors! I had no idea he was yellow. He also is fully grown according to some research on their overall size, and I’d say...

Could the tanks filtration system that’s underneath of it be changing out enough water to lower the nitrates? There are no live plants or wood in the tank. I was expecting some dark colors from the tests.
