I am really asking in general, because I don't know what particular fish yet, I would just rather know for the future. Thanks for the help! Huh, ok. I didn't realize that. I've had success doing that in about four hours, but it was on a slow drip to acclimate from 7.4ish to 7.8ish. I haven't...

Sorry for the confusing title, but I’m just wondering if I buy a fish from a store that has a pH of 6.5-7.0 and my water is 7.8-8.0, can I acclimate the fish without harming it on a slow drip acclimation throughout the entire day or longer? Would it shock the fish or invert if the pH changed...

Blue Anemone

Guppy face

3 bettas 8 wcmm 3 cories 7 amano shrimp 5-7 nerites 4 mystery snails like 45-50 guppies & endlers 5 ghost shrimp (hundreds of pest snails, but that doesn't really count) And I am thinking about setting up a low tech shrimp tank so that'll add to the number as well.

That's true.. I didn't notice it said 5 gallon. Could definitely be an ammonia spike

Did you acclimate them to the water before putting them in? Drip acclimation is best if they haven't been in the bag for too long.

Yeah, I agree. Thanks for thinking of torpedo, it really matches!

I was thinking of adding 'fire' before torpedo. So fire torpedo endlers. Sounds kinda cool

Awesome, can't wait to see them develop. Post updates here later on! Absolutely! If you aren't local, we'd have to be careful because a lot of packages are being stopped with covid, but I totally would love to work out a trade. They are very pretty looking. Again, post updates here when they...

Good plan, I am going to isolate a male endler and a female guppy to get some hybrids and then breed those hybrids. I can't tell when the females are hybrids so it makes it really tough to isolate them. So I first have to hope that both are pure bred and then get some 100% hybrids from them...

They are very beautiful. Good job! I hope you continue to breed them. I think people would really want those.

Thanks! They're really pretty looking, and they aren't fully mature yet. When they get a little bigger, I'll post some more photos, probably in a few weeks.

Yes!! That’s so good for the more yellow hybrid. This is also a very good one for the more bluish hybrids

That's what I think, too. Wondering if anyone has a cool name for these?

Hello Everyone, I have had japan blue double sword guppies and japan blue endlers in the same tank for like 5 months now and I'm getting some pretty cool-looking hybrids! Looking for anyone that can either put a name on them or help me name them... I am not certain that these aren't...

This is so frustrating!!! I am very sorry... I had a very close call with guppies and endlers in the mail at the very beginning of covid. They got stuck at a mail center that was thankfully close enough to home so that we could go and pick them up a day later! Learned my lesson about ordering...

I'm sort of in a similar situation as you, although I already had the population explosion... I think I am almost to the point that I need to give a lot of them away to a lfs...

Maybe a hillstream loach? Not only are they beautiful but they are hardy and eat afwuchs (algae, bacteria, diatoms etc) off of flat surfaces.

Sorry, I have just seen this now. It honestly couldn't be easier to set this up. I just use an extra thick layer of substrate (4-5 inches) made up of about 1 part fluval stratum and 1 part black sand. This makes it deep enough so the anaerobic bacteria can thrive consuming nitrates. They turn it...
