  1. Algae growing fast

    fish don't need lights, its for our pleasure. You don't even have to turn them on until you get home for the day. especially if no one is home. It will save on electricity as well. Or you can get timers for your lights. Walmart has them for as low as $5.00
  2. ID “Brown shark”

    Yeah, like I said, I couldnt see the other pictures on my app and from only the first picture it looked similar. After posting I could see the other pictures and its clearly not the same.
  3. ID “Brown shark”

    I think it looks like this... Cyprinus carpio Edit: never mind. The app has been messing up on me lately and on this thread I could only see the first picture until I posted something.
  4. White patch on lip

    Ok so I went with a guess of Brooklynella. I went to my LFS (independently owned) and asked for his advice. He said to give them a fresh water dip (which I’ve heard COULD cause more harm than good) and to raise the water to 1.026. I keep mine at 1.021 so I was like....woah. Is this even ok? He...
  5. Fish has a yellow spot? And staying at the bottom of the tank.

    That’s what I was afraid of. Honestly, it looks like dwarf gourami iridovirus. I had it run through my tank and killed all 3 of my dg’s in three days. This is exactly how it started in my tank. It was a yellow spot in the morning. By afternoon it had doubled in size. By that evening it covered...
  6. Fish has a yellow spot? And staying at the bottom of the tank.

    What kind of fish is this? The top pic looks kinda like a gourami but it’s not quite right in the other.

  8. White patch on lip

    Ok, so the patch on his lip is gone but it looks like it’s moved to the rest of his body. This fish is super camera shy so they aren’t great pics.
  9. White patch on lip

    My yellow tail blue damsel has a white patch in its lip. It didn’t have it when I first put it into my quarantine tank but it’s been there for about 4 or 5 days. I’ve tried to get a clear picture but it’s pretty camera shy. From a distance it looks bright white and fuzzy but when you get up...
  10. Clownfish diet?

    My clowns (and other fish) go absolutely NUTS for the Fluval Bug Bites betta formula. I found out by accident when I wasn’t paying attention while talking and fed the betta tank first and then went straight to the salt tank and shook some in.
  11. How to acclimate a fish properly

    Also to add to Salem’s post, instead of tying a knot in the tube, I use a regulator from my air hose. You can adjust the drip rate with that and there is no fear of the hose accidentally loosening from vibrations or pressure from the water or even the hose naturally straightening by itself and...
  12. 10 Gallon Tank My first salt tank

    SUPER low tech, old school setup. No coral, I don’t think I can care properly for that right now. No inverts yet. Shrimp will come with the bigger tank. MAYBE an anemone eventually but idk. I’m just starting and making a WHOLE bunch of mistakes. I got very forgiving fish to start with. Making...

    Welcome! I can't wait to see your tank!
  14. Hospital tank - how to keep biofilter in main tank>

    I keep guppies and 1 shrimp and 1 otto in mine. If I have a really serious problem I move them out and the sick fish goes in.
  15. How much should I pay for this tank? Or should I pass??

    As I said...Maybe its deeper than it looks to me. It was established that its a 112g when the OP answered my question with the measurements.
  16. What you do for work

    I manage a hotel.
  17. How much should I pay for this tank? Or should I pass??

    That doesn't look like a 100+ gal to me? I could be wrong though but it looks like 55 to 75. Maybe its deeper than it looks to me. What are the measurements? Edit: also, check facebook marketplace. They have tanks for great deals all the time.
  18. Parrot's Feather - how do i.... everything.

    SO it looks to me like its gonna root anywhere. If you leave it floating it might help to slow its growth cause otherwise its going to grow like crazy if you plant the roots? IDK, I have a black thumb when it comes to water gardening so I love to see everyone elses' stuff. When you trim it just...
  19. Fish dying after tank clean

    Thanks for clarifying! I would test your water. If you're using "wild water" then there is honestly no telling what has leached into the soil and therefore the water table changing the chemistry before it makes it to your home. Even times of rain or lack of rain can change the chemistry of your...
