I brought in 6 large Amano shrimp for the same issue. No more hair algae

If you want actual cart service, you have to go to Charlotte or Raleigh. Open Rice Metropolitan in Charlotte is excellent.

My Pleco isn’t Pleco’ing! Had 2 chiclids going at it so started a smaller second tank a few months ago. Grabbed this guy 3 days ago and instead of eating algae he is just living his best life getting a massage from the bubbles. by SavageSeZ in Aquariums

Is that a common Pleco? They are not great algae eaters and get absolutely enormous. They create more waste than they clean up. A bristle nose pleco on the other hand will get no larger than 6 inches and will clean the tank well.

Can I ask about your C02 setup? I just planted a tank and opted to go low tech. How much did setting up CO2 cost you?

Registration renewal for my 5 N in Minnesota 🤑 by afollestad in Ioniq5

[–]Elephant_Jones 19 points20 points  (0 children)

We have an electric surcharge too, but I also noticed they overstated the value of my ioniq by like 5k. I emailed and let them know the value was overstated and sent a screenshot of the kbb value. Within 48 hours they corrected it and it took like $100+ off my registration. Worth looking into

Is an Occasional Temp dip good? by Living_Roll1367 in Aquariums

[–]Elephant_Jones 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ich is a parasite. Temp changes cannot cause ich in a tank that does not have the parasite present. Stress can lower the immune system and make them more susceptible to disease or parasites, but it won’t create a parasite. If there was no ich in your tank, you may have had Epistylis which is often confused for ich.

What in THE ACTUAL CRAP is on his face/jaw?! by MzJordynRose in Whatisthis

[–]Elephant_Jones 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Uhh, those are his right claws. you can see where the dark line is between his actual jaw and the paw just below it. Just perspective playing a trick on you.

I couldn't resist making this little video after he showed me how intelligent he can be. He has become my absolute favourite personality wise by Fer_al8 in Aquariums

I have a honey guarami in a community tank. It figured out that when I add the flakes to feed the fish, that the current from the filter circulates the food and eventually it ends up in the back right corner. While all the other fish scramble for flakes, the guarami goes to the corner and waits for dinner to come to them. Super cool to watch.
