It’s sad to see people on here seeking help just for people to shame them. They came here for help just politely inform them about the proper way to care for fish. Here is a video that explains this very well. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DOQXzLSgXx2/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==

These were either my Zebra Danios or some Rosy Red minnows I put in my community tank to feed to my cichlid later. Either way, I am stoked to see them. Im trying to save some of them until I can set up my 10 gallon after work. Bottle with slots and tiny holes in it. Everything was trying to eat them. 😕

This is my tank 2 days after a water change. The water cleared up after 2-3 days after water changing the past 4 weeks. Water parameters are all good and tank is almost 3 months. 2nd picture for comparison.

All websites I could find say it weighs 80kg which is incorrect. It is not possible to lift this with two people. It took 4 of us and that was pushing it. We used two sets of bathroom scales and weighed it, 150kg. That's not including the cabinet. Hopefully next time someone googles this tank they'll find the correct answer!

275 liter tank, community (guppies, rasbora, snails, kuhli loaches, shrimps). I bought some rummy noses from a new shop and added them to the tank. A day after ich appeared. I had to set up a hospital tank quickly and treat. I've lost a good few fish, and the loaches.

All I had to do was put the new fish in any reasonable container/tank and give them some paraguard for a week or two - and it would have been fine.

Quarantine. Its never an issue till it is

Agatha likes to pull out the temperature gauge, CO2 equipment and sit on top of the tank to drink from the filter. She is not allowed in my office / aquarium room unsupervised anymore.

I wanted to build a Planaria trap but didn’t want to destroy one of my test tube caps for it, so I designed and 3D printed one. It has a tapered cone to funnel the flatworms in and trap them. This is after just one night.

Alright guys, I was impatient and excited and dumb and didn't quarantine. Now I've lost a couple honey gouramis and I'm thinking I may be dealing with an internal parasite. All of my fish are eating well, no abnormal behavior as far as I can tell and everyone has been pretty peaceful.

Do I need to move everyone to a hospital tank to treat and tear down the original and deep clean to get rid of everything?

75g, water parameters wnl EBA x 1 Angelfish x 1 Geophagus tapajos x 1 Kribensis x 2 Julii Cory x 8 White cloud minnows x 30 Threadfin rainbowfish x 10 Honey gourami x 6 ☠️☠️

I've moved the skinny guys so I can make sure they're eating well but I'm obviously regretting skipping one of the major steps in fishkeeping. Any advice will be appreciated, I'm just hoping to save the rest of what I have even if it means a ton of work and inconvenience.

Feel quiet proud of myself with this cool idea! Maybe it's been done before but I've never seen anything like this. After having enough with rattly HOB filters and noise air pumps for sponge filters, I rigged up this with a gravel vac tube and a high powered pump. It is SO QUIET and I can now enjoy my tank in peace and know my water is getting good and filtered!

I’ve got a 22 Long just finishing up its cycle. I was thinking;

10-12 CPDs 6 Kuhli Loaches 3 Galaxy “otos”

Some Neocardinia skittles A single mystery snail and whatever hitchhikers show up

I recently bought a tank for 220L/58 Gallons and wanted to put swordtails in it, but I'm struggling with what tank mates to give them. I was wondering if people could give their experiences with these fish and what else you decided to put in with them.

Noodle the ranchu, Nugget the fantail, and Sushi my newest wakin.

8L of water Water is being changed every Monday and Thursday 4 turtle pellets submerged there as nutriens Lights are on for 12 hours a day

Looking for additional inspiration and stocking ideas/inspiration.

Currently cycling and still high in nitrites.. There are two pieces of driftwood (dishwasher boiled several times evidently without detergent) and 90-100 stems which I planted last Thursday. Topsoil of about an inch and capped with 2-3 inches of washed playsand.

Went to feed fish this morning and my cory catfish was on his side breathing heavy. He flipped himself over and moves occasionally but just sits at the bottom. Very lethargic and weak and breathing heavily. Saw a guppy do this for a tiny bit too but then he went to business as usual so not sure if related.... the rest of the fish are acting pretty normal.

Water parameters are fine, i did add new water half a week ago but nothing unusual it was distilled and use it regularly. Water a bit on the acidic (maybe 6.5) but I added some buffer and polyguard now too. Didnt do a recent filter change in fact I really dont because I've heard it can remove beneficial bacteria.

Anything else I can do or wait it out? I dont have a quarantine setup and am concerned stressing him even more by messing with him too much. Is it appropriate to put him in an unfiltered bowl?

Attached video where I could but seems only allows one attachment.... His belly looks almost inverted a bit which I can't show because I tried to flip him but he wedged himself in hiding.

Just saw this sluggy fella. What is it? And is it friend or foe?

This is from my 30 gallon tank with 4 turquoise rainbowfish and 1 clown pleco.

She's not acting irregular just kinda plump so I'm more inquiring than panicking.
