    Fry of some type, likely shrimp. Congrats! You did good!
  3. Do female betta communities actually work?

    I’ve got a 40tall and a 55, with sororities in each. Occasionally there’s chasing, but so far it’s good. Granted tanks are well planted with lots of hiding spots.
  4. How old were you when you started keeping fish?

    I can remember my grandmothers poor bettas… the only good part of their life was the 3x weekly water changes… and the fancy guppies. My mom cussed neons a lot…I guess it’s been around 50+years? That doesn’t mean we did it right, but there is a learning curve!
  5. Female Betta intrigued by filter bubbles

  10. Favorite Types Of Dogs

    I hate to tell you this but unless you buy a hairless dog, you are going to deal with shedding in your entire life- I have for French bulldogs, no need for short hair. I pull dust bunny slaying sized hair balls out of the corners of rooms on a daily basis!
  11. Are fish just as content being in a tank as they are being in the wild?

    Some people prefer risk, some prefer calm. I think it very much depends on where your fish come from- I think a wild caught fish there’s a 50-50 chance of being content in an enclosed environment, and most trade bred fish have a 90% chance of being content in an enclosed environment.
  12. Snailpocalypse

    Tell me there's hope… I got a screaming deal on this 55 gallon tank… after water changes, and just feeding the fish that came with the tank which by the way includes the largest female guppy I have ever seen she’s 4 inches!- I have an over abundance of snails. I have pink rams horn‘s I have...
  13. Cool shrimp

    I’ve noticed that after making some changes to a tank that came with shrimp, they are hiding out- also, I think they molted as the ones I’m seein are less colorful

  15. When to feed betta after mating

    I’d say feed him regularly, he’s less likely to eat your fry if he’s had his regular feed- worked for me
  16. Surprise! Java sword making babies!

    Ooh, I think they do OK with the sorority of Betta in there?
  17. Surprise! Java sword making babies!

    holy smokes, I think my java is making babies! Yes, I know I’ve got hair algae, but strict use of a timer is diminishing it. Look at the Java rootless! Oh, and six assasins are on the snail population.

    Maybe he felt 84 was a vacation, lol
  20. How Does Treating Fish With Aquarium Salt Affect Plantings?

    Yup, I use Epsom salts for my tomatoes There’s the conundrum, treatment recommendations is 1tsp per gallon, I figure about five water changes at 50% to clear it. Does that seem reasonable?
