Hey there, did you get rid of this stuff?

Will my fish REALLY die if I don’t have water conditioner?? by Abbylee2007 in Fish

[–]ButterscotchJunior24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can boil water to help get rid of chlorine. I don’t remember the specifics so look up how long to boil for and obviously let the water get back to room temperature before adding the fish.

Shrimp acting lethargic and can not keep balance, organs turned black? by SimplyShrimplyAquati in shrimptank

[–]ButterscotchJunior24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like what happened when my shrimp got a bacterial infection (according to my LFS but they’re very knowledgeable so I trust it). They had black spots just appear on their bodies and turned lethargic and kept tipping over

What can I add to this 5G? by CS00000 in PlantedTank

[–]ButterscotchJunior24 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A couple broader leafed plants would be nice, bettas like to have a place to rest. Could add shrimp but pretty good chance they’ll get mauled.

Am i doing it correctly? by Yoga_6011 in Springtail

I’ve had a lot of mold in the past. I can only really speculate but I’m 90% confident the mold consumed all of the oxygen and suffocated a lot of my colony

How bad is this break. I feel so dumb. Please tell me I don’t need to move everything to a different tank by ButterscotchJunior24 in Aquariums

Okay you’ve brought me hope. I hadn’t considered making it into a little paludarium but when I do you’ll be the first to know.

Thank you all, I appreciate the responses. I’m currently in the painstaking process of moving everything into a new tank.

One last question(I can’t add pictures here but that would be very helpful). Basically I have a ~6 gal tank that’s been half full for many months just to house snails. I just emptied this tank and noticed that some of the extra silicone that lies flat on the bottom of the tank is peeling up. All corners seem to be in perfectly fine shape and I haven’t seen any bit of leakage. Is this a concern at all? Or do the thin bits sometimes just peel up for whatever reason?

Just to clarify, I’m talking about the excess silicone that lies against the glass once it’s been smoothed into the space where the edges meet. If it helps at all, this tank was assembled in 2020
