  1. Glass Catfish Concern - Rearranged Plants

    Thanks and . This is great information. As of now all 5 of them are still hanging in the same spot. Seems to be happy there!
  2. Is this too ambitious?

    Thanks RDcompton03 , jinjerJOSH22 and Barrylfc Dojo will reach 12 inches? Forgive me, but I was under the impression its only in wild. In Aquariums its more like 6 inches? Mine is probably 4.5-5 inches at this point. Bolivians, I thought the water params and tankmates should be compatible...
  3. Is this too ambitious?

    I have a Fluval Flex 32 gallon. Its reasonably well planted - with more planting planned. Filtration is rated at 214GpH. Here is my current stocking: -- Mid Level-- 1. 6x Neon Tetra 2. 2x Angel - 50% juvenile (Mid - Upper level) 3. 5x Glass Catfish (Pretty much sticking to one position during...
  4. Glass Catfish Concern - Rearranged Plants

    Hello Experts- I have 5 glass catfishes in planted aquarium. Have had them for over 2 months now. They were all good, mostly hanging out in one part of the tank under some big Anubias leaves. Then one fine day, I had the "brilliant" idea of rearranging my decor and plants. Now my glass catfishes...
  5. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Quick update: As of 3 days ago, I moved Dojo back to the main tank. She seems to be happy and enjoying her time there so far! Also I noticed that the temp in the main tank is now close to 77-78, now that winter weather is over and things are warming up. Makes me concerned again! Will have to...
  6. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Great information. Do you feed this variety of food every day? I am just using one kind a day. Different one the next day. Wonder what the best practice is. Also my aggressive Angel will always be a problem when it comes to feeding time. He has to be fed separately first on one side and I drop...
  7. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Thanks. Agree. No wasting all this progress . She can stay in the hospital for as long as she wants. . I'll keep this thread updated. Main tank is about 75 degrees. I know its a little low for Angel and high for Dojo. Hopefully not too damaging for either. Somehow ended up buying both these...
  8. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Thanks PascalKrypt and scarface I think there is some encouraging development from this morning. It appears she ate the small pellets I dropped for her last night. To test it out again, I dropped 3 more of the same pellets this morning. And they have disappeared! Taking that as good news. I...
  9. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Thanks PascalKrypt yeti79 scarface for all the help so far. I don’t have any new updates. Still not able to go buy Prazi pro or garlic guard because of the Covid-19 situation. Hopefully will be able to go get it tomorrow. Getting out when LFS is open has been a challenge. I hope everyone else...
  10. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Yeah. Will try that as well when I get a chance to step outside. You may be correct. Nothing to lose except a few $$.
  11. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Nothing new to report. Unfortunately she’s still not eating. I tried bloodworms, and some garlicky pellets too. She’s not interested in any of it. She’s just laying at the bottom of the hospital tank all the time. With some minor movement to different parts of the tank few times a day. I don’t...
  12. New Algae problem in my tank

    Thank you kallililly1973 What’s the best way to remove this. I took some of it out by hand. But there a lot growing in smaller leaves.
  13. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Once again thanks PascalKrypt and yeti79 Moved Dojo to hospital tank again. Is she looking way too skinny? She didn’t resist much when I caught her in the net. Likely very weak. Have to try bloodworms today. Unfortunately no live ones or Garlic guard yet. If needed will venture out for it...
  14. New Algae problem in my tank

    I have been seeing this new Algae variety in my tank. Is this green hair algae? Can someone help me ID this? I have a few plants that are high light ones, because of which I am running the lights about 10-11 hours. I have pressurized CO2 injection as well. I was deliberately not removing algae...
  15. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Agree I can move her to the hospital tank for the time being. But I wonder what a long term solution could be, if the temperature is going to be a problem. She used to be fine until a couple of weeks ago. Daily 50% water change should not be a problem at this time. At home anyway because of the...
  16. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Ah Girl Dojo! Good to know. Don’t have to call her a he. She spend about 3 days in the hospital tank. I may have made the mistake of not being patient enough. I moved her back to the main tank. She looked better to me, and that played a role in the decision. Was moving not a lot, but atleast...
  17. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Thanks for checking in. And appreciate all the inputs from everyone! I did reduce the CO2 to almost half. From 1.25 bubbles per sec to 0.66. So hopefully that will help. Also added about 3/4 cup of crushed coral as an additional filter media. So far not seeing any impact. Been about 18 hours...
  18. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Thanks. My pH continues to be very low at 6.0. I stopped by my LFS today, and the suggested using Crushed Coral to bring the Ph up to a more acceptable level (probably what killed my Rasboras). Really worried about the constant fluctuations. About the Dojo, I moved him to a smaller 5G hospital...
  19. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Yes. You are correct. The Dojo was the second batch. So was exposed to hgher Ammonia (the highest it went was upto 0.5 ppm) Water changes are weekly - 7-8 gallons - so about 22-25%. Whats the solution when I have such different water? Less %, more frequent?
  20. Is my Dojo Loach ok?

    Thanks again. Feeding: I feed them once a day. Normally I see him eating fine. Angels and Cory's don't get in the way much. Usually its the sinking pellets and flakes (which eventually sink). There is always some extra. Not that good removing the extas, but I occationally do. Stocking: Agree...
