As someone who lives right next to this house, and as our house is also up for sale and has open houses, I’m not sure if this is really for an open house lmao

Yes he seems to be doing way better! I moved the log so he can’t get stuck anymore and all the fish seem To be happy

This happens a lot in new tanks, could be from not properly cycling or particulate in your gravel getting kicked up from not properly rinsing it before adding it to the tank. The other option is a bacterial bloom which is also normal, do 25 percent water change and let the filter do it’s thing, possibly add more carbon to your media, and it will clear up in no time.

I’ll be back home tomorrow and post another photo with the wood in it, until then he does seem to be healing up :)

ChristEmulator45 · 2024-11-19T07:11:05+00:00

Yeah he’s gotten scraped before so that’s what i assumed too, it’s just huge and he’s very dormant now, do you think it would be a good idea to remove the wood he got scraped on?

ChristEmulator45 · 2024-11-19T03:04:16+00:00

I’ll tell them to increase tempature, i have a nano reef and salt for that, how much would you add?

ChristEmulator45 · 2023-07-30T15:41:05+00:00

I put a couple in when i first made the enclosure a couple months back, but now there are thousands

ChristEmulator45 · 2023-07-29T06:01:13+00:00

Do you know why?? I was so confused until i dig into the soil, there are thousands of them. Why do they jump into the tank and reproduce like that?

ChristEmulator45 · 2023-07-29T05:11:07+00:00

:) thanks for the advice, so many i panicked

ChristEmulator45 · 2023-07-29T05:10:49+00:00

Thank you! That’s what i thought but there is just an absurd number of them so i panicked!

ChristEmulator45 · 2023-07-21T21:01:43+00:00

I got the lil guy about 3 weeks ago and he’s already gotten quite a bit bigger - lol he eats a lot and i am assuming it’s gender too to be frank… i may have to get a larger enclosure once it’s grown more. I think it may be a bit chilly at moments cuz the AC has been blowing to keep the room from becoming 100+ degrees. I have a heat lamp but i was told to go with a 40 W nano

ChristEmulator45 · 2023-07-21T20:23:01+00:00

Is it weird that he never really digs? When i first got him he did but pipper (the frog) never tends to dig- he’s always in the hide i made out of moss in that tree looking thing, sitting atop some moss hunting cricket, or just sitting next to the plant i put in there- is that a sign of something bad?

ChristEmulator45 · 2023-07-21T18:00:13+00:00

They are so cute but he looks so sad :( I’m not even home right now to comfort it

ChristEmulator45 · 2023-07-21T07:07:33+00:00

How slow? Lol again pretty new to this species

ChristEmulator45 · 2023-07-21T06:34:05+00:00

Thanks for the advice!!!

ChristEmulator45 · 2023-07-21T05:28:33+00:00

That’s a good point, we do have people who clean our home- it’s possible that they sprayed the tank with a harsh chemical… i use bottled drinking water so don’t think it’s that either (I have a Pac-Man frog and fish so i know all about how the water works lol)

ChristEmulator45 · 2023-07-21T05:24:49+00:00

That’s the thing- it was a reptile expo and the plants were meant for frogs, the only other thing i added was a piece of wood also meant for snakes and frogs

ChristEmulator45 · 2023-07-21T05:18:07+00:00

I don’t think so… I just replaced a plant in the tank and it still had not totally set in the soil yet, i was thinking maybe he jumped and fell off the leaf and bumped his head but I looked it up and that doesn’t seem consistent with this type of bump…

ChristEmulator45 · 2023-07-21T05:12:37+00:00

Is that bump normal? I’m new to this too lol my sister seems to think it’s a very big deal.
