  1. Aquarium plants, fish, and snails Updated List

    Hello! I'm interested in all 3 4" water wisteria stems and a tennis ball portion of Java moss if that's all still available.
  2. Platy Dead at 5 Days

    Temp is 74, drip acclimated for about an hour. As to the tank at the store, they were the only ones left in the tank and I didn't see any dead ones or anything.
  3. Platy Dead at 5 Days

    I guess it's possible that it was too many at once, but I already had a fully established cycle, so that seems strange to me. Anything is possible though. I knew I was forgetting to mention something...they were all female, so not a ratio issue.
  4. Platy Dead at 5 Days

    So we got some new fish on Saturday for our 10 gallon tank. After much debate and "no, that's too big for our tank" the kid decided on some platys. She picked out 4 (3 adult and 1 baby) and they seemed to acclimate just fine. But today (Wednesday) I saw one was just chilling at the top of the...
  5. Upgraded Betta Tank to a 5.5 gallon

    Since you don't have anything to test the water at the moment, I'd say yes. Extra water changes certainly won't hurt anything. It seems like you're on the right track now though. I would get a filter and a heater. The heater will also help keep the temperature steady, which most fish prefer...
  6. Persistent Cloud/murky Water

    Hmm...definitely strange then. Can you take a pic of the tank? And how long has it been running?
  7. Persistent Cloud/murky Water

    I agree with bizaliz. You may have lost your cycle completely (or at least mostly) and it's causing you trouble. However, for the cloudy water, I keep purigen in my filter and it cleared up the water when I first had issues within a day. I think it's more important to keep an eye on water...
  8. 5 Gallon Tank New Tank Diary & Planning

    As of today there are FOUR berried shrimp! One has been berried about 2 weeks now, one for 1 week, and the other two just popped up in the last couple of days. I've been trying to get pics, but the only are in a good spot for pics when I don't have my phone with me to take any! lol
  9. Koi Betta Breeding Journal

    I think B1 is my favorite. Pretty sure it's the same one from some other pics that I thought was cool, since the eye looks like it's 1/2 blue, 1/2 black.
  10. Hamster Cage Cleaning Question

    When I had hamsters, we always dumped the whole thing. They never seemed bothered by it, but everything else stayed the same.
  11. Game Of Thrones Fans?

    Wasn't the second instance in the show also in the books? I haven't read them, so I don't know.
  12. Game Of Thrones Fans?

    Only the special ones are, like Danaerys. Her brother wasn't, and whether or not Jon is is still questionable. I believe it was said somewhere along the way that they needed to be pure-blood though to even be possible, so Jon wouldn't be.
  13. Not My Trees!!

    Sounds like things around here. I went to Chicago for the weekend and it was 80*, and when I came home to Michigan, there was a frost warning for my area. Apparently they got snow up north somewhere though. Even for MI's crazy weather, this is on the more unusual side. We keep going back and...
  14. Game Of Thrones Fans?

    Definitely a disappointing end. I like that they actually took the time to "close out" the endings for all the characters, but I also feel like I have more questions still. Jon was banished to the night's watch then goes north with the wildlings. Is he going to help them rebuild then coming...
  15. Cycling tank - About To Give Up

    I'm going to agree with everyone else. Just do a big water change to get nitrates down and you should be good to go!
