I'm just telling you what the test results say about thr Ph levels. And yet I feel accused. Yes I know it needs to have ammonia. Lately I don't feel like I'm getting any help. Just being told what I'm doing wrong. That doesn't help me at all. Now I remember why I don't like forums so much...

I know the bacteria starter is gone with all the water changes we've done since. Since (not by choice, grr) were doing fish-in cycling now one thing I put my foot down on is the bacteria starter. --> How often and how much of a WC do suggest? The low & high Ph varies so the I'm checking I...

I have 1 female blue (white skirt Tetra glofish,) And 2 males. And the female Tetra likes to dart at the Male Tetra's a lot I noticed. One time the female and Male went nose to nose but otherwise she goes fast after them. Does anyone else's Tetras do that? I've had them for just over 3 weeks...

What's been your favorite fish keeping memory so far?

I'm not creative when it comes to usernames also. My question is if you have a Schooling of fish have you noticed different personalities, or do they seem to be the same so far?

If you could re-scape your tank once a month how would you do so?

Yesterday we did a 50% WC. And I added to capfuls of Seachem prime because the Ammonia wasn't going below .25 for just over a week. Went to check water parameters and Ammonia was at 0 for the first time since using Seachem prime. No nitrites yet but so happy to get the ammonia back down to 0!

If you get a female and put it in last shouldn't have a problem. Also if you do that I suggest getting a female Betta from a sorority tank. (I didnt know Petco had one until I asked a worker their. I love our Petco fish staff! And a female Betta around the same size. I originally wanted to get...

Hi. First time fish keeper. Started 1 month. So I have a female crowntail Betta and 3 Blue Tetra glofish. The Betta came from a sorority tank at Petco. It's like the Betta and the Tetra ignore each other now. After having then together for two weeks. We got the Betta last. Even at first they...

Morpheus1967 Been testing for Ammonia and Nitrites daily. Now I know to say what all I'm testing from now on. WC every other day at 25%. Unless Ammonia gets to .50 then its 50% WC. I've been using Secham Prime now. Ammonia hasn't gone below .25 since I started using it Prime. 6/14/19 Ammonia...

I have 3 blue tetras glofish. None of there eyes are blue. They have black eyes.

Betta's are my favorite.

It's been just over a month. (Started May 3rd) And still no Nitrites.

Definitely don't want to do a planted tank even though I have a few plants. Mainly want to change for color. Many articles say some of the beneficial bacteria is in the substrate so was curious. I have no desire to change the filter anytime soon. Especially since it's not completely cycled...

Currently I have a gravel mix of white, blue and green that I mixed together since it didnt turn out how I wanted it too. So a month later I already want to change the substrate but I'm in the middle of cycling the tank. So I'm conflicted what tI do and would like advice please?!
