Live plants and CO2 injection worked for me, along withe the aforementioned manual removal and water changes.

Still only one fish in my 65 Gallon.

You will certainly get better info here than from ChatGPT or any other LLM. All those AI bots do is aggregate whatever it scrapes off any old website. Not fish related, but I recently asked what biplane was flown in Brendan Fraser’s 1999 The Mummy. ChatGPT assured me it was a Sopwith Camel...

Sorry for your loss. I do hope you don’t bail from the hobby for long. One suggestion when you return is a slightly bigger tank if possible. Small tanks have a small margin for error. I am not suggesting a huge tank, but maybe 10 to 20 gallons.

For ich, bumping up the temp 5° was always more effective than any medications in my experience. With an 80 gallon tank such as yours, the temp increase would be gradual. Good luck! We have all been there.

Danica is GORGEOUS.

We have two collies and they are the best dogs we ever had. Quiet, yet protective. Taking care of her was money well spent.

Dropped $2.7k at the vet for a collie with a skin condition the past two weeks. Probably what I spent the past decade for my aquarium.

Not looking for an argument, but IMHO a canister paired with an HOB does a fine job. Pair them so that each, per the manufacturer, would be adequate individually and you are doubly covered.

Multiple filters are key. I have for decades used a canister paired with an HOB. Currently I use a Fluval 307 paired with a Tetra Whisper EX70 for my 65 gallon tank. Works well. Assuming I Iive to see the Fluval reach the end of its useful life, I will replace it with a canister of comparable...

Thanks. We are glad she remains healthy after these years.

I use Fluval 12694 Shrimp and Plant Stratum. I chose this because it is readily available from Amazon. I prefer to shop locally but there are no decent aquarium stores within a 2 hour (each way) drive. I only added this to my tank six weeks ago but now plants are beginning to flourish though...

Thank, you! I am looking forward to being on this forum.

Hi All, I am a longtime aquarist having had my first tank 62 years ago. Right now I have a single 65-gallon tank with just one fish: a 6” kissing gourami that is about ten years old. We nursed this tank and fish through Hurricane Helene with no electricity for a month or fresh water for 7...
