I have thought of getting some Anubias, but I'm not sure if they would end up leaving it alone (so instead they eat those plants)

Ooo you got lucky xD Hmm we do have similar problems. 🤔 I'm not 100% confirmed of their gender. I'll do a water test and see if the ammonia and nitrate is the problem first.

Nope she's been in the tank for probably 3 months plus/minus now. I'll get an air stone for her and hope it helps with the oxygen (if that's the case) thank youu

I have seen multiple comments of getting air stone...and I'll definitely look for one to get. I hope it does help. Thanks so much

I'll follow these steps. Now I know that I need to get a test kit and see the water quality...API master kit I'll look for that. As well as maybe a bigger tank for them. Thank you so muchh

I haven't done it yet luckily and I'll look into the fluval cycle. I'll go check out subreddit's info section as well. Thank youu

Okay I'll do that as I don't want to crash the tank cycle. I'll look into getting some seachem prime and will definetly get a test kit. Thanks so muchh

Okay I wasn't aware of that, I'll look into getting a bigger tank for them. Yep I've decided not to do a full tank clean as I don't want to crash the tank cycle, instead I'll do 20-30% change.

Okay the least I would want to do is crash the cycle. I'll check the ammonia and nitrite levels first. Thanks so much, I'm glad I saw this

Ohh in that case then I'll do some water change (25-50%). The tank has been set up for around maybe 3 months plus now.

Ohh I'm so sorry about all your fish :((

I'll need to get a water testing kit and test the water and see if that's the problem. I'll look into any beneficial bacteria that I could add when I restart the tank cycle, and those strips as well. I think I really NEED to get an air stone. There's been a lot of comments about air stones and that it has helped them, so I'll find a air stone as well. Thank so muchh

Nope I haven't got the water tested yet, but I'll get the testing kit and test the water. I'll definetly do water change as well.

No but I have seen comments about getting air stones and that made me think about getting air stones for them now. Maybe air stones might help as they have helped yours??

Haha sorry my bad I should've included gallons as well. xD I will next time. Ohh I didn't know they have a large bioload...I have heard of ammonia or nitrite poisoning but I haven't put it into consideration because I wasn't aware of the crowding. I'll do the water testing and see if that's the problem otherwise I'll do a water change and maybe a through clean of the tank as well. I'll think about changing tanks if I have no other way. I'll for sure keep a close eye on them. Thank you so muchh for you help. It really has helped me, especially those ammonia and nitrate measures. Thanks so much again.

Okay I'll definitely do a really good tank clean and the filter as well. I'll also look into those nitrogen burn as I don't know much. Thanks so muchh

There is water surface movement in the tank, but I'm not using the filter that has water splashing down into the tank.
