If your feeding frozen bloodworm, or other frozen foods, that might be the source of your jellies

Fry of some type, likely shrimp. Congrats! You did good!

I’ve got a 40tall and a 55, with sororities in each. Occasionally there’s chasing, but so far it’s good. Granted tanks are well planted with lots of hiding spots.

I can remember my grandmothers poor bettas… the only good part of their life was the 3x weekly water changes… and the fancy guppies. My mom cussed neons a lot…I guess it’s been around 50+years? That doesn’t mean we did it right, but there is a learning curve!

Last year I had a female so gravid she was dropping eggs while she swam! It was disconcerting, and confused the other girls too!

I’m sure I’ll still have some when it warms up, lol

Mostly true- but I guarantee four frenchies produce more shed than you think. I vacuumed yesterday, and can see clouds under the sofa already!

Truth, lol. We had a Keeshond when I was young- I learned to card and spin wool from her sheds!

Almond leaves! I had an Alien, And you could tell just by his color whether or not the acidity of the water was high enough. He was paling in the central body areas-using almond leaves, in 24 hours he was just fine-and you could tell just by his color whether or not the acidity of the water was...

I hate to tell you this but unless you buy a hairless dog, you are going to deal with shedding in your entire life- I have for French bulldogs, no need for short hair. I pull dust bunny slaying sized hair balls out of the corners of rooms on a daily basis!

Some people prefer risk, some prefer calm. I think it very much depends on where your fish come from- I think a wild caught fish there’s a 50-50 chance of being content in an enclosed environment, and most trade bred fish have a 90% chance of being content in an enclosed environment.

Tell me there's hope… I got a screaming deal on this 55 gallon tank… after water changes, and just feeding the fish that came with the tank which by the way includes the largest female guppy I have ever seen she’s 4 inches!- I have an over abundance of snails. I have pink rams horn‘s I have...

I’ve noticed that after making some changes to a tank that came with shrimp, they are hiding out- also, I think they molted as the ones I’m seein are less colorful

Me too, lol

I’d say feed him regularly, he’s less likely to eat your fry if he’s had his regular feed- worked for me
