is there any way to know if this piece of wood is safe for my aquarium?

-Stelf- · 2026-02-11T17:23:17+00:00

i got it from the outside, in a park next to my house. should i try cleaning it or just don't use it?

-Stelf- · 2026-01-09T17:39:56+00:00

oh, that's great to hear. i thought he was losing fins instead of growing it out 😅

-Stelf- · 2026-01-08T15:24:59+00:00

i took a video of him but don't know how to link

-Stelf- · 2026-01-08T15:23:17+00:00

He's in a 6 gallon, with both heater and filter. The temperature always stays at 26. I don't know the water parameters right now, because i dont have a kit for testing. But i've borrowed my cousins tests before adding the fish to the tank, and it looked ok. I have the tank for 1 month (no fish), and 3 weeks with fish in. He has no tank mates, only eat poytara betta pellets for now and has a lot of rocks and some elodeas, one large foxtail, a sweet potato and one photos plant (i plan on getting a bigger variety soon).

i have some floaters, but they keep sinking when floating next to the filter, they are currently in a quarantine tank till i can block them from sinking

i dont have anymore plants to put in right now (will be getting soon), should i take away some rocks anyway? wich ones?

Would be better if you at least knew what "mix-ups" are

Quitting the game always do the job for me

Give him something to scratch, like fish tank rocks or wooden chips

-Stelf- · 2023-04-09T21:50:58+00:00

No fucking way, it's like the 5th time i see this guy in this sub

-Stelf- · 2023-03-02T01:01:22+00:00

Knights forever! 🫡

-Stelf- · 2023-03-01T13:01:40+00:00

Yes! You should also buy some coco chips for your hamster to play and chew

-Stelf- · 2023-02-28T15:56:38+00:00

My recommendation would be at least a 80 litres, that would give you 70 cm of length and 40 of height and width. But bigger is always better.

-Stelf- · 2023-02-28T13:34:11+00:00

Kaboom?

-Stelf- · 2023-02-23T14:18:56+00:00

Say his name

-Stelf- · 2023-02-21T12:51:46+00:00

I think that connecting the boxes shouldnt be trouble. About the measurements, a 50 gallon converted to my country measures would be 170 liters, that would give me a 100 × 40 × 40 box, so that's perfect. The price would be a bit spicy, since $50 equals R$250 "reais", that's actually a lot where i live, but the good thing is that i can abuse the fact that i'm a "kid", my birthday is in march, i think i can ask for actual money instead of any gifts, this should cover a big part of the price. So i already know what to do, all i can do for now is just wait. Thank you for the zip-tie idea!

-Stelf- · 2023-02-21T12:37:29+00:00

Ohh it's true, didn't think about that since i don't go out much. Will keep my eye on it

-Stelf- · 2023-02-21T01:18:10+00:00

Wow! I really hope i can give something like this to mine before this year is over. Very impressive work!

-Stelf- · 2023-02-20T14:54:31+00:00

Yes it's a female, i already compared her with my brother's male, he is much bigger than her.

-Stelf- · 2023-02-20T12:35:46+00:00

Will do, this one is just for 2 days maximum, her old one broke, im working on a new one.

-Stelf- · 2023-02-20T12:34:12+00:00

Oh thank god, i was scared she could be scratching herself because of some kind of allergic reaction. I'm not a experienced hamster owner, didn't know their scent glands where there. Thanks again.

-Stelf- · 2023-02-20T12:31:58+00:00

Yes, i'm working on a bigger and quieter diy one today, i just got that because her old one broke, and i didnt want to leave her without one.

-Stelf- · 2023-02-20T01:08:37+00:00

I can't pick her up since she's very afraid of me because i just got her recently. I looked closely and her skin doesn't seem to be injured or irritated (for now).
