Yea so turns out that the battery was really dead. I connected the jumpers with another car and had to leave them for ~45mins in order for it to start. Been running just fine since, which means that the only reason it died was because it sat for too long.

Ah yes, I forgot to mention that. Only dwarf corys in a 10 gallon...thanks for the correction

Agreed. That was also the first thing that clicked in my head. I thought "hmm the fish is missing and the filter is off, so something must've happened between the fish and the filter". But the fish was neither in the filter space or the intake, and I highly doubt that a filter could shred a fish...

Yeah the battery is dead for sure, so I contacted the dealer and I'm waiting on their response.

Hey guys! I ran into somewhat of a weird issue yesterday. So my dad has a 20' Infiniti QX80 that we got a few months ago, but due to the current situation around the world, we haven't driven it that much. Usually, we start it up and take it for a little spin one or two times a week, but recently...

I am in the exact same situation. The Shark most likely jumped from the empty filter space and flopped away to a place where I haven't been able to find it. It's been a week now, but still no smell, trace, or hints of the fish.

Yea I checked the whole filter and even the intake but it was nowhere to be found...and I still haven't found it yet, so I'm completely clueless at this point.

I also thought that maybe the pleco ate it, but the pleco is only ~2", and I'd say that there were probably 6-7 hours between me going to sleep and checking on them in the morning. So I highly doubt that a 2" pleco can devour a 3" shark in 6-7 hours.

Nope...I don't have any other pets, just fish.

Hey Fishlore! So today I ran into a really weird situation. So, around 10 days ago I bought a rainbow shark and a butterfly pleco from my LFS and I housed them a quarantine tank. Everything was going all well until this morning. Last night I fed both and went to sleep. When I woke up today and...

It is true that a 10 gallon would be the better choice, but I believe that they can also be kept in a 5 gallon. Given that a 5 gallon is 16"x8"x10" and these guys max out at around 1", a school of them should do just fine in a 5 gallon.

A school of Pygmy Corys.

Have you checked the water parameters? I know that you haven't had fish in there for a while, but still check them to make sure that the water is ok for the addition of new fish. My suggestion would be that if you have another tank or decor/gravel from another tank, put it in the 30g. That...

Honestly, in the first few years of my fish-keeping I never used to quarantine my fish, but 2 years ago I bought a few cichlids and added them to my main tank without quarantining them, and that ended up with me losing all but one of my fish Since then I always quarantine my fish for a week or...

Good afternoon Fishlore! I had a quick question/opinion from y'all. So last Tuesday I bought a 3" Butterfly Pleco and 3" Rainbow Shark from my LFS and they've been in my 10 gallon quarantine tank since. It's a proper quarantine tank with all needed equipment and adequate parameters. It's been...
