Do you have a strategy for where you place your filter intake,  heater, thermometer, etc.  in the tank?   What's your first priority with that;   water movement?  visibility? etc.   I'd like to know…Continue

green fire tetras and no more plants, oh my

Wow, can't wait to find a new home for these guys.   I picked up "something hardier" than the rummies I lost,  to put in my newly replanted tank.  SO MUCH for that.   These guys destroyed my temple plant, green foxtail, and really chewed up my pennywort.   What a mess.   Just posted them on craigslist.  Pretty little things but WOW. 

damn it.. fish tragedies.

I found a store with rummies and I've been adding them 3 at a time to not overstock the tank all at once.  UGH.   My fish from that store had been great so far.   The last 3 I added all my rummies broke out with ich a week after I got them.   Treated with salt and heat,  but all 11 of my rummies were dead in 3 days.  

The rest of my fish were fine.   After 2 weeks treating I did a big cleaning and water change, then did something STUPID.    All of the fish left in the…

Feature Fish Suggestion for 30 gal.

Posted on February 18, 2013 at 1:41pm 0 Comments

I started with red honey gourami, 3, as my larger feature fish in the 30 gal, but they have all been sickly and faded,  when everyone else is doing great (and from different stores).    So I'm looking for something different to add to the tank. 

This is a planted tank,  around 78F,  pH 7.0-7.5,  fairly soft water. 

Current residents:  7 rummy nose tetra,  1 siamensis, 2 false bandit cory cats. 

Looking for something between the 2-3" range,…

Apple snail- Zamboni

Posted on February 15, 2013 at 7:30am 8 Comments

I put an apple snail in my 10 gallon last Sunday, and I can't believe what a great job he's done.   The glass and rocks are spotless,  even the rocks with bits of starter plants tied to them.   He cleaned all around and over them without touching the healthy green stuff.   Now he's started on the plants, going up and down each one, and they seem to appreciate having…

Hey HeatherS about the pennywort, mine is pretty sad looking too but has new small leaves. I read that if you cut off a leaf with a little stem on it and let it float it will root and grow into a new plant. Yay!
Ill post pics in the future to show my plants progression
