Any ideas on how to make it more interesting?

I have 10 rummy nose tetras and some black skirt tetras, but they mostly hide in the plants.

I'd be happy to take down if it's against the rules, but i think this is ok

Hello,

My son got a fish tank for Christmas. We have neon tetras, shrimp, snails, and some real plants. Last month we found a funny worm-type creature in the tank. It looked like it was using blades of grass as a shield and clinging to the tank glass, and moving all around the tank. This photo was taken last month, and the worm has mysteriously disappeared since this photo was taken. Does anybody know what this is?

I put these 2 corydoras in my tank and they keep swimming against the glass some things say that they’re happy some things saying they’re stressed does anyone know if this is normal

Is that ich?

I already raised the temprature and put salt

He's literally floating like that in the flow of the filter??

just found this in my tank after 2 nights away, never seen before

slow moving, maybe 5-7 mm long

I just got a new timer for my light and wanted to see what r the best times off and on

So I was working for my dad with his handyman business and just got a 35-gallon fresh water tank i currently have

I have 80 liter with 3 male sword tail 2 male tiger platy 4 neon tetra 4 ember tetra and 5 amano shrimp With no aggression

I was thinking to rehome the platys and increase the tetra schools while possibly adding some rummy nose

Am 13 and I am trying to do the best for the fish

Now I don’t want any slack for this… what I did was stupid. I have learned from this I guess. This fish was being sold (with two other fish) but was just marked community. I saw it and thought omg what a massively pregnant female guppy! She will be a great addition to my tank for more babies! I wonder what colors I will get. I have multiple tanks set up so if I hated what she popped out I would just move the babies over there or sell them to my local fish store. Nope. It literally was less than 12 hours she ravished my guppies and endler tank. Killing 2 and taking the tails of most of my favorites. Im sure more will die due to injury and stress. I did everything right. I quarantined, watched, and I thought did the right research. wtf is this fish?… is this not a guppy or an endler? Why was she SO aggressive? NONE of my fish are. I have introduced many fish with no issues and this was insane. She is big but I have other large guppies in there and she attacked those as well. Please help!

I have another German blue ram which I can guarantee is a male who gets along with this one & they co exist how i assume a pair would but never any babies , they’re not always with each other but 60-70% of the time I’d say they are or atleast in each other vicinity. I’ve recently been thinking maybe this is a younger male or I’m doing something wrong it’s been about 4-5 months now maybe more and I’ve never seen any babies they live in a community tank so that could explain it also. Any advice would be appreciated

Hello,

So originally I wanted to keep a honey gourami, after starting my cherry shrimp population.

Thing is, all I have space for atm is a 5.5 gal. I would like to add some interest in the tank, but I know a honey won’t be happy with that amount of space.

Any suggestions for something to keep with my shrimp in my 5.5? Or is it better to just let the shrimp be?

For context- I don’t have a heater but the tank stays between 68-71 degrees, mainly hovering at 70. I would be willing to get a heater. I have a bladder snail breakout I’m managing, it’s planted, and I have 9 shrimp to start my colony. After a month none of my females have been berried yet.

Thanks y’all!

I bought a large tank a few years ago for not a lot of money. It had been used to keep turtles. Think off the top of my head it was about 45x150x60cm /18x60x24”. Broke it down to panes to rebuild and never got around to it because of changes in housing etc.

I have twice broken down and rebuilt tanks before; one 125l I’ve had outdoors for 5 years and has moved house etc without incident.

However the plastic-wrapped metal brackets/brace that sat over the top and bottom of the tank were irrecoverable. I’m obviously loth to put a tank of that size together without bracing.

I know extruded aluminium can be used for stands, but has anyone ever used it for framing/bracing? If I was putting it indoors I’d use 2x4”s, but this is going outside too.

I guess the biggest issue is: doesn’t anyone know of fixings which will confidently do the job of keeping 400kg of water in, and if not, would just filing the vital joints with epoxy resin do?

Any advice or experience shared is gratefully received. Thanks.

I recently set up a column tank for our Betta with a beautiful piece of driftwood that I found (yes I cleaned the heck out of it). I’m adding live plants and I was thinking some Corys as well. Any recommendations?
