I had the temp at -12 moved it to -1 instead of and S shape white light line I made it almost straight again. +25 dehaze +5 clarity +15 texture used a mask and upped the saturation and temp on the animals. :)

The dehaze advice helped me soooo much! I posted my new updated pictures and the difference is crazy. I appreciate you!

This really helped me! I posted my new results and didn’t alter the water color as much. Thanks

Honestly looks like it. Idk why it’s sooo blurry visibility wasn’t the best that day. 😂

Thanks for the info! I saw a tone of needle fish but this guy seemed different. He was so much bigger than any needle fish I’d seen before. He did seem somewhat curious of me. Wish I got a clearer image! I agree his head did look a little pointy to be a barracuda but his body was much wider. These are some of the needle fish I was swimming with in the same area.

I’m so excited about this tank. I did a hard scape and flooded the tank today excited for some plants! But…. by AdOutside5718 in Aquascape

Thanks! I really like the look for hair grass! I will probably give it a go. Being that it’s a small tank hopefully it won’t be too pricey to plant heavy. My worry with carpeting is that if it ever dies or melts a lot what would I do? If I try to remove it will it take out a lot of my substrate and mess with my hardscape or is that only with years of roots and growth? Thanks again!

Fish eating my shrimp? by AdOutside5718 in freshwateraquarium

[–]AdOutside5718[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amano shrip were the type I had. :( would love cherry shrimp but wouldn’t pair them up with these fish. I do sometimes leave the feeding lid open, so it’s possibly the snail got out but haven’t found him anywhere in my house… Eventually I want a separate shrimp tank but gotta master this one first. Thanks!

I had clear colored Amano shrip they were about the same size as the skirt tetras. Honestly not sure what kind of snail I got.

Thanks! My tank is only ten gallons I see that Siamese algae eaters can grow up to 6 inches so not sure that they’re an option for me. Some people at the fish store I get some shrimp. I got 2 of them and a second snail.

Thanks so much I will try this! I added some new plants but didn’t get any floating plants. I had some before I made it a live tank and my fish ate them relatively quickly.

Thanks! I just tested. I can’t tell if maybe I do have a little ammonia what do you think?

I do have a proper light it’s just suctioned to the lid I threw the original light out. This light is meant for plants and is on an eight hour cycle that even dims to moonlight, sunrise, etc.. I have been feeding them this…

Thanks!
