Thanks!

Thank you. Was having a hard time finding a clear answer. Any idea how to get it off if decorations without taking them all out of the tank? Gravel vac was useless trying to remove it.

Why was my thread moved to a pest section? I don’t have snails or anything in this tank.

The reddish color is a reflection. I’m talking about the dust looking stuff on the rocks.

Can anyone tell what this is all over the tank? Mainly on a few plants and some wood. I just did a water change 2 days ago as well cleaned 2 of the filters. Wouldn’t suck up off if the rocks and the filters aren’t clearing as expected. Thanks in advance.

Thanks.

Ok. Thanks. What about cucumber? I know they are in the meatier side but it’s tough to tell if they are even eating that. 2 days ago I put some blood worms in a syringe and brought it down to make sure it made it to them. I honestly have no idea if they are it. Maybe it’s just me but I...

That’s what I did last night. I had the lights off for about 20 minutes before I put the food in. Forgot to check this morning but afternoon... still wasn’t touched

Hey guys. In a seemingly never ending string of new frustrations I’ve got a new concern. A few weeks ago, I added (2) L201 Snowball Plecos to my 55 gallon tank. They hang near each other but never move much during the day. It’s been hard to tell if they are actually eating anything. They...

Haha! I don’t use the blue light specifically for that reason. It’s a shame too cause it looks nice.

My apologies. The first thing I saw on diatoms was “Kill it before it kills!” Doesn’t seem to be that big of a problem. I’ve been trying to figure out which light was enough for this tank, at times running them both thinking neither are enough. So I’m sure that problem will get sorted out.

Ok guys. So, after coming home I’m now seeing what looks like Brown Algae all over the glass of the Ram tank. Looking it up, it sounds like this can be a massive problem for my fish. First question, should I remove the Rams and set up the quarantine tank? Second.... what do I do?

Thank you.

Thanks.

That’s what I was thinking. But other than that I don’t see any signs of ick on them. I just bought Ich X and was going to treat the tank as such. Can I hurt them by treating the tank if it ends up not being that? This is really stressing me out. I feel like I should be doing something more...
