cut down an hour or so off your photo period. You can also start treating sections of the algae by turning off water movement and spot treating with hydrogen peroxide, let it sit for 5-10 minutes...

I personally dont see the harm in it. if you notice in my vid the bettas are checking it out. yah the rummys are schooling a little but I kinda play with them all the time by moving my hand back and...

I do 50% once a month as well. Pretty heavily planted and medium to high bio load. I dont vacuum.

+1 check the hose connections to see if air is getting sucked in.

also since its been set up for a week, if its brand new set up it might take time for the biofilm to form on the inside of the...

I was thinking the same thing firefly.

that is a great photo. Its like they were flying in formation for you.

i agree... might be an algae bloom.

hope you feel better.

could it be green water?... I think algae in the water can make the appearance of being a little cloudy while not making the water noticeably green.

I have a 404 and a 405 both running with spraybars. No issues. They were purchased off e bay. I have also tried surface skimmer but found it unnecessary and kind of a pain when you need to feed the...

be careful with that inline co2 diffuser. I just recently replaced a glass diffuser on one of my tanks with this and my drop checker went yellow within a couple hours and killed a couple of my cories...

I am getting these custom made to fit my tanks. Both are Hagens so they are unique size and generic lids wont fit and i dont think Hagen makes glass lids for their tanks. There is no center brace and...

I have decided to do away with my stock canopy and upgrade my lighting on my planted tanks and i will be getting glass lids made. My lighting will be a 2x54w t5ho. I need lids in winter because its...

I would think it should be ok as long as you dont push the 306 to its full flow ability. I would imagine turning it all the way up with the slimmer pipes might cause some back pressure and cause the...

just a reminder to not feed the entire pea to him... 1 or 2 chunks the size of his eye ball. Bettas will eat and eat and plug themselves up.

Bettas do fine in larger tanks as long as there isnt too fast a current especially if he has a big tail and fins. I would move him with most of the current tank water then fill the rest of the way...

might just be the grumpy old guys...

I currently keep 3x 4 inch SAE with 10 corys in a 58G and there is minor chasing at feeding time. for the most part they get along and the corys handle themselves. The SAE are getting a bit too big...

looks awesome!

How big a tank is it? Yes single is fine but they are probably best kept in at least a pair if you want to see their neat behaviors. While they are a social fish, I think the general guideline that...

Hi

In case I missed it what size tank is your betta in? Adding so many things to your tank at once like the way you have been doing may be doing more harm than good if its a smaller tank. I would...

Looks good! I wish I could find some seiryu stone easily up here. Look forward to seeing how this turns out!

by the way forgot to mention I have 2 x fluval 405s on my tank as well ... I also started with 3 endlers (2F 1M) and now I have probably 40-50 in the tank even after fry losses. Just so you know what...

Welcome to the forum! Lots of great people, info and advice on here!

That is great, fingers crossed that the fry can make it! Makes me miss my rams. They were such awesome little characters and I miss watching them frantically tend to the cloud of fry flying about...

Endler fry tend to stay near the surface of the water especially if you have other fish in the tank so you dont need to worry about covering the intakes. Any stem plants left floating at the surface...
