So I'm thinking of using this bowl as a shrimp tank or a terrium. Originally I was hoping to possibly put a betta or something similar or smaller. But after guesimating the capacity, I believe it's somewhere around 2G and too small. It was used for a Christmas arrangement, but will be washed...

Looking to get some Betta Albimarginata and saw this seller on Aquabid. I'm just curious to see if anyone has used them and possible advice on transhippers for someone that lives in the West Coast. I've been waiting for a while to get these guys and am super nervous about buying from out of the...

Ultimately it depends on how willing you to keep up on water changes. And if they grow enough, do you have the room to upgrade or are willing to rehome? But if you are willing to upgrade, keep up on water changes, over filter the heck on the tank, you can easily doing 3 small fancies in a...

Did you ever QT them?

Honestly, I would probably just up the ammonia to around 8 ppm providing it's a fishless cycle. Sure, it'll be more a pain in the rear to get the nitrates out, but it's been proven that high ammonia cycles a tank quicker than keeping a lower ppm, if you can keep your KH, GH and in turn your pH up.

Better yet would be to net the fish in question and just feed it from there.

Nope, although the lily tends to have leaves seemingly vanish overnight. But it's crypts that worry in the background. Not very good pics and I am sorry for that.

No. I did add some more RCS , but that was months ago, September I believe. Valleywren

Has anyone else dealt with this before? All my crypts are dying, no rhyme or reason in one particular tank. The crypts in my other tanks are doing just fine. I first noticed it about three weeks ago. I figured it was right about time to add some new root tabs, which I did. The last time I...

I've seen that if you use metal mesh, it will hold it down and grow through it. I personally have never tried it. I have a hard enough time growing stem plants. Different plant species, but same concept. -

Depends on your goldies tastes also, I have one that is not huge on plants so. But go for it. Elodea is another good choice if you went with the cage idea.

Amazon.com They work well as I have to use them due to my skin hating excess time in the water for my larger tanks and I have them over a year later still. 36g and 55g

There's no way to guarantee it. Do a bleach dip, but because you are dealing with more delicate plants, there's no way to know if you'll end up killing the floaters

No problem. I'm also more of the boat that 20g is good for 2 fancies. I had two, but unfortunately died. He was always smaller and had some genetic issues I think.

Completely possible, just depends on how much it grows if it doesn't grow at all, that would be its permeant tank. And since you are willing to put the work in, you could technical add a small buddy.

I was asking about this a few weeks ago. Depending on your budget, Twinstar seems to be a really brand, I got the EA and am waiting for a few other things to get here.

Yup... You would be surprised. Do you have any experience with UNS contisoil, or Fluval stratum?

Carpet is generally made with synthetic materials, which most of the time does not break down immediately like fruit or other organics which is good compost. If and when it breaks down, it's much like plastic in terms of the length of time. And I find it very annoying when I find bits of...

That is also what I was thinking. Probably tell my parents to using it for potting soil, but not in the garden. On that note, since I don't have any soil for my tank. What option would be easier and better, given that I'm not going to be able to set my tank up till Friday. Order some UNS...

I figured as much. A waste. Thanks.
