Poor little guy. I lost one of my adult spotted corys this week too. Unknown cause of death

This is my first time viewing this thread. In a word...WOW! Impressive to say the least. I’m in the beginning phases of planning a high tech tank for this time next year (don’t tell my wife) and was getting ready to start a “high tech planted tank with unlimited budget” thread. I just want to...

I once skydived from 10,000’ and landed into a 40 gal breeder...Er wait, that didn’t happen :cool:

I’d say put it in a pot, bring water to a boil. Let boil for 5 minutes then turn off heat and cover with a lid. Allow to steep in hot water until it’s cool. If water looks to have a bit of tannins in it, repeat the process with clean water. I just did this process with two pieces of new...

Don’t take my word for it. I’m just an amateur hobbyist...what do I know? :)

Particle board and aquariums don’t mix IMO. This probably won’t end well

The AQ has slots where the basket clicks into the frame of the HOB. It stops the basket from rising. I recently put some polyfil in mine and it’s a game changer

I feed once per day, unless fasting the fish or if I’m feeding fry, which I’ll typically feed small amounts, 2-3 times per day

Wondering if the larger plant is hogging up all the nutrients

Yes sorry, I meant Juwel tanks. Nice that you have 3. I’m salivating over the 450L lol

Neat-O. I’ve never seen these before, but they look pretty classy. Wonder if they’re available in the States?

Welcome to the forum! Looks pregnant to me as well. Beautiful tank my friend.

I usually fast mine for 48 hours following a WC/vac session. It causes my fish to further clean the tank in search of food, so they pick at rocks, wood, glass and plant leaves. I think where overfeeding gets us in trouble is not so much the amount of food (although too much isn’t great...

They’re actually a little different. 10ppm is a dark orange (darker than 5ppm), whereas 20ppm is more of an orange-red. As mentioned above , doesn’t help if you’re color blind lol. Glenn’s test result looks to be 10ppm

Wow, that is a steal. Might be a Red Melon Sword

Nice looking tank. I’ve been thinking about some Hornwort for my community tank. OP, what lighting system are you using?

Welcome to the forum. Sweet setups!

Not this time around, but I had a few when I was a youngin’. I’ve been thinking about getting one or maybe starting a sorority eventually

Welcome to the forum. Nice looking betta crew ya got there.

I had my Aqua Clear unplugged and emptied for about an hour yesterday. I took a toothbrush to the inside of the intake tubes, serviced the impeller, tossed the original carbon filter that came with it and added a course sponge for the bottom and some PolyFil for above the sponge. What I like to...
