i agree with what the others said- scrubbing down your whole aquarium is not good, and if you do that whole ordeal every single time you clean your tank, that’s gonna stress your fish out if you need to clean it i recommend using a razor blade to scrap algae away and a gravel vacuum to do water...

yesterday i purchased 2 more shrimp, and one of them had died this afternoon yes i acclimated them it doesnf appear to have any bodily damage and i have other shrimp that are doing well so i’m confused on what killed it? here’s a pic: perhaps this something to do with it- when i woke up many...

would endlers livebearers be suitable for a 5 gallon?

oh i just meant- if longfins are generally less active that would mean they require less space right? so it would be good to keep them in a 5

oh- i’ve don’t know much about see through algae when i thought of a coat of algae, i was thinking more of spot algae (which isn’t that pretty) if that’s what you wanna do with your aquarium- by all means do it! we’re all in this hobby for enjoyment right?

i have a 5 gallon (not set up rn) and i was wondering what are some easy to care for animals you could put in it? also; when measuring gallons if the whole thing was 5 doesnt that mean with substrate added, decoration like wood & rock, heater, filter, all that- it would be less than 5? also if...

100% moss. if you got a big carpet of algae it’s probably also gonna be on your rocks, wood, and other plants to have a good carpet going yk what i mean? i recommend christmas moss or java moss if you wanna go that route

if your water parameters are good and he’s happy, honestly i think you don’t have anything to worry about. lots of bettas color changes, i’m pretty it’s just something that some bettas have and some bettas don’t. he also might be stressed from moving and that’s why his colors are changing- but...

i already have cherry shrimp 00-00 is that bad?

hm, do you think perhaps bc its a bigger tank they wont run into each other as much and therefore the cherry shrimp wont really get killed? maybe i can get a betta that somebody didnt want so they know their personality?

Is there any way to tell if a betta is going to be chill or not?

ive had a 20 gallon high up and running for about 4 months and 2 weeks, and i was wondering if i could stock it with these (i have cherry shrimp) 1 female betta 10 pygmy corydoras that would be all, is that overstocked? would there be a problem with the cherry shrimp and betta, or the betta and...

i’ve had shrimp for like 3 weeks and no one has died, molts look good as well, i go to sleep and when i wake up i see this what the heck? did i do something wrong? could it be an infection? or did she die of old age? i did get them as adults but that doesn’t look like age. parts of its body is...

they looked like mostly the same color, some a little dark and some a bit lighter, though she might've gotten berried at the actual breeder where the store got them from bc i got her already berried and idk how long they were held before being sold, if at all
