Since 3 weeks now a biofilm formed on the surface of my Betta tank. It keeps growing shortly after a tank cleaning and water change. Any suggestions for a solution? Is it because of the food I give to him? I give tropical flakes by Tetra (Tetramin flakes) is it because of them?

Hello! Thanks for your reply! No, there are no other fish apart from the Betta. There are 3 nerite snails. Maybe I'm overreacting, but Casper (my Betta) is white with only some blue fades here n there on his fins, I don't think red is part of his pattern at all

Those res spots... I fear they are parasites. He seems healthy though... Opinions?

I give fertilizer weekly, what should I do next?

How often should I do WCs? Not heavily but almost

Actually nitrites and nitrates are 0 in the tank But the algae still flourish And there's even white film on the surface

Almost all day, it doesn't have a timer, and yes it gets indirect sunlight Yeah I do both once every month, or at least by now because I set the tank some weeks ago already

I just can't understand what's going on. I think I have an algae problem.. see the picture below. This is my 15 gallon Betta tank, with Casper (my Betta) and a nerite snail inside. I did a water change and a cleaning 3 days ago, and the tank was clear again, now again algae spread and I don't...

What about glowlight tetras?

I have a nerite snail with him in the tank and he doesn't bother it at all

But will the Betta eat them? I have a 31 gallon tank already with fish in there... So yeah, I have a back up plan basically I was thinking of cherry barbs or lambchop rasboras

I see, thanks!

I don't know, since I was opting out for rasboras (i love them) but maybe there are better options? Or cooler fish out there?

Hey! I don't know what to put tigheter with Casper (my white Betta). He's very funny to watch actually, but I think some other fish shall deserve to share their space with him! I was thinking of rasboras.. but I don't know actually. What do you suggest?

Maybe if I buy a Fluval u1? It would change something?

I have doubts in choosing these guys. I already have Harlequin rasboras in my 31 gallon tank, and they're gorgeous, but get large around 5 cm. Lately I saw the Espei rasbora, and they're pretty cool actually but there's no clear size chart that can make me choose them (some say that they get 2.5...

Ok thanks ☺️ Both but the gravel is kind of a thin layer

I fear these plants are dying... What do you think?

I've set up, finally, a 15 gallon tank to house a Betta. Since I bought a fluval u3 that I've never used i was wondering if it was good for the Betta or not, since Betta like slow flow environments. Or at least, is there a way to reduce the flow?
