Hi. Have some problems with my 2 planted tanks. Both have Valisneria it grows like its dwarf but it is not. One has gravel and regular lighting (Fluval flex 18g w hood light). The other (20L) has sand and a Fluval Blue sky light. It also has some struggling Buce. Anytime I try to use a...

Thank you. I had it before and am worried it is sneaking back? This tank is also a 20L I suspect the air/agitation has been an issue? We have an Aquaclear 30 and sand on the bottom. It has been an issue at times with the water flow I suspect. I added an air stone on the other side, but...

Yes thanks! Still - I was just wondering, I worry about putting meds in the tank when the fish are not sick. Also, any idea? The packaging states do not put in sewers, soil, etc. So what do I do then once it's time for a water change? Is the time lapse the thing that makes it ok?

Yes. I have read this. I have limited light to 6 hours. I have cleaned the tank, but still have a lot of algae. *I am just more nervous about using the Maracyn w the frogs/snails/fish.*

So we have a tank with problems. Blue Algae/Cyano? appears to be forming? Algae isses on top of that? Unsure if it's beard or other. In the tank are 1 Honey Gourami, 1 Pagoda snail, 6 small Cherry Barbs, 2 Horned Nerite snails, 3 King Koopa snails, and 2 African Dwarf Frogs So my question is...

Hmmm...click the Fishlore links to both. It looks like the Diamond Tetra link has a video of a tank showing both together maybe? Maybe someone else can confirm?

Agree! Not sure if the fish are in this shot? Not natural cept a few live plants added. But we do love our Glow tank.

Hmm...yes no wood in tank. Again, it is back after last water change? Going to test parameters again and do another cleaning. Hopefully this will knock it out once and for all. Thanks again everyone!

Thanks for the perspective all. I am still dealing with foam on the top of the tank. Any ideas? What can I do? A w/c the other day helped some. But I worry about doing too much, as I had just cleaned the tank a few? 2? days before the w/c.

Thanks all! I have never heard that on API. Good to know. Maybe it's because I'm towards the end of one of my Ammonia bottles. Hm. Re foam: weird. I do have filter water breaking the surface and I had just done a w/c. Seems like the extra one I did last night cleared it up. Hopefully for...

Hi all, sometimes I test my water, often I don't. Recently I was testinf again. I noticed that All 3 tanks appear to have .25 Ammonia? 2 of the tanks are established a over a year or more. One is newer. All seem to read .25 ppm - I have been doing weekly w/c and condition with Prime? What...

Yes. Likely the issue here too.

Speaking of Camus... The Plague too.

Anything by Dostoyevsky! And they can be long too.

It may take time? :l We had them coming nicely past year or so. Was late this year setting it up & whether it was that or the weather? Don't know, but have only seen one so far. Usually constant visitors by now. If you add some nice red flowers or just some red anything that may help draw...

My hubby would Totally eat that! There is still some color to it and he would never pass up pork belly!

Goodness. Again still ph going up. Not sure what to do? And why? I have done w/c numerous times w no issues. Other tank had a recent w/c w No issues? Any help? LFS said remove decore thinks something got in causing it? All other tanks here normal pH. It just keeps rising. Afraid to mess...

yep

Thank you. Yes they are all hidden, much of today. But surprisingly about a bit at first. I am hoping in spite of hiding they are ok. Hard to tell. But they looked well before hiding. Hoping that is a good sign. Maybe if worse they would have been about more?

yes shifting later - this tank was started w a sponge from said tank they seem fine - but just wanted to ask in case something comes up - what to look for?
