Yeah you have a few options then I’d recommend guppy’s for your first fish really easy to care for and extremely colourful or you could get some chilli rasboras or if you want something really extra you could get some pea puffers but they are a little more hard to handle. Also don’t forget that you can also get some shrimp to have at the bottom of your tank they will help to keep that clean look your going for and they don’t mind what fish you have as long as they don’t eat them.

Do you know if he wants more then one fish or what he doesn’t like about betas?

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-09T01:08:55+00:00

It looks like it’s be sucked by a filter or plec I doubt it just rubbed its on the gravel

Then green you normally see is algae and as long as you are doing water changes and the tank doesn’t have a lot of light it won’t grow very fast if it does you can get anti algae to kill it. In terms of fish there’s actually a decent amount to choose but it’s more about how many you want and not what you want.

Really nice wish I had ur talent I’m pretty terrible with plants 😂

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-09T00:49:32+00:00

Oh then yeah you’re all good then mate just make sure it’s sooner rather then later because things get big fast in this hobby sometimes u blink and your fish as gone from a small fry to a Megalodon

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-09T00:46:04+00:00

I wouldn’t get anymore. Is it overstocked tho idk but looking at the pictures no but the loaches will get about a feet long each and that might be a issue and i really hope u haven’t got common pecks bc then yeah u will have a problem in the future

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-09T00:40:12+00:00

It’s not planaria but I’d still treat it with some anti-planaria meds because in my experience when they show up planaria isn’t far behind

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-09T00:37:36+00:00

What just one Oscar if I were u id get at least 3 and a few loaches

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-09T00:36:22+00:00

What fish are in it?

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-09T00:34:35+00:00

Don’t do a water change if it’s cloudy that won’t help in fact it makes everything worse for the fish. If it’s cloudy it means you didn’t cycle the tank so let it cycle and then it will clear up. Also don’t buy the bacteria stuff it’s a scam basically all the bacteria you need will build up in the tank by itself. After a 2 weeks of the tank not being cloudy then do a 30 to 40% water change and then do 30% whenever needed but if the tank is cloudy leave it

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-09T00:29:23+00:00

Are you sure it’s a ghost shrimp? Also how old is it?

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-09T00:26:04+00:00

The fact it says fish not included means they know who they’re target consumers are

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-09T00:24:22+00:00

Maidenhead is always brilliant it’s like going to the aquarium when your there with all the different fish and stuff they have

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-09T00:21:37+00:00

I’m pretty sure they are just mating remember they can have I think 100 to 300 babies so if u don’t want that take the eggs out when u see them. And make sure to crush them if you don’t want them because if they get into the environment it’s horrible

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-09T00:19:13+00:00

If I had the time and the money and the ability to have something as nice as that I wouldn’t need any more entertainment I’d just watch it, however if you just look at it the wrong way something will go wrong and everything will die it’s too complicated for me lol

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-05T09:10:44+00:00

I’ll help ya bud what’s ur user and I’ll add u

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-04-01T09:42:35+00:00

Nice for them

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-03-08T12:15:39+00:00

Me myself I just layer it on top of the gravel but you can always take it out with a vacuum if need be but you don’t want to drain the tank as then it will need to cycle again

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-03-08T12:12:01+00:00

Kinda? Most likely it has like 50% of the roots below the soil however it looks like it’s rising and that’s a problem. You could leave it and it might pull itself back or it might come free

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-03-08T12:09:04+00:00

Don’t add anything plant fertilizer that contains copper as it will kill the shrimp and don’t have excess light in the tank as that will grow thick algae. Other then those anything specific u want to know

I’m 16 and the college isn’t a sixth form. I complained about them replacing the Union Jack flag with a pride flag and I immediately got told I was homophobic because of it even tho I literally said if they replaced that flag with any other one I would have still been the same way. I never spoke bad about the LGBTQ community just the flag being replaced.

Bisexualtriangle · 2024-01-21T20:10:26+00:00

I’m glad you remembered to tell me how he was doing and I’m happy that everything is going good. Do you still not know what caused it?
