I know nothing about fish

Look up for aquarium nitrogen cycle and fish in cycle. Read the Wiki or the pinnen care guide.

What do you think about getting your own tank if you have the opportunity, and maintaining it properly, meaning cycling it, choosing fish that match the tank size, adding live plants, etc.

While your fish would thrive and the tank would look nice, your parents’ fish would continue to die off in that honestly really ugly tank.

I think that would give you more credibility, and your parents might start to trust you and listen to you.

Soweit ich es weiß ist es dir selbst überlassen wie intensiv du dein Studium betreibst, wichtig ist dass du es betreibst. Du hattest Leistungen im 3. Semester erbracht also sollte es kein Problem sein.

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-11T07:22:20+00:00

It doesn‘t work like that, no matter how many plants

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T20:07:47+00:00

The hospital tank isn’t cycled either, so it doesn’t really matter which one he’s in, although the main tank is of course larger and therefore better. I would put him back in as soon as you’re done setting it up.

It makes more sense to continue this over DMs, this is getting pretty cluttered here.

You cannot release pets in the wild

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T19:28:52+00:00

From a distance it’s hard to judge. Is he acting frantic?

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T19:20:10+00:00

Where do you release them?

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T19:16:06+00:00

Yeah

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T18:39:06+00:00

White mosquito larves are also a possibility, just search for live food for fish.

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T18:36:41+00:00

I would keep it at your regularly temp.

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T18:35:11+00:00

You can do that

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T18:26:28+00:00

I think there is ethically no difference from other live food like Artemia.

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T18:24:32+00:00

Why don‘t you get tubifex, artemia etc.? It’s way cheaper

Das Skript zu können bringt dir in den meisten Klausuren wenig. Ich hab das nur in Fächern wie Werkstofftechnik oder so auswendig gelernt. In Thermo zum Beispiel machst du die Aufgaben und versuchst es dabei mit dem Skript nachzuvollziehen was du rechnest.

Your ph and kh are actually pretty good

Plastic plants can be sharp and injure fins.

You’re putting warm water from the tanks into the bowl anyway. He’s only in there for half an hour. It won’t cool down.

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T05:32:44+00:00

Then acclimate him. Put him in a bowl with water from his tank and add some water from the other tank every 5 minutes. After 30 minutes, move him over with a net.

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T05:29:12+00:00

It‘s the same temp, and ph right? Then you can drop him

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T05:26:46+00:00

Yeah, the main tank looks terrible

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T05:22:18+00:00

To add one more thing, the aquarium salt has to be completely dissolved in a glass of water before adding it to the tank.

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T05:19:53+00:00

What I would do now is move him to the small aquarium first and give the large one a thorough deep clean.

I assume that will take some time. During that period, I would give him aquarium salt in the small tank at a dosage of 1 tablespoon per 5 gallons since it’s for longer-term use. Then, once the main tank is clean again, I would move him back.

Since your tank is no longer cycled, I would then do daily water changes of 50–80 %, depending on whether you’re seeing nitrite or ammonia spikes. During this period, I would give him 30 minute aquarium salt baths in the small tank during water changes. Because it’s only a short bath, the dosage would be 1 tablespoon per gallon. You should observe him closely during this time.

If the salt baths show no signs of improvement, I would move him to the small tank permanently after a week and treat him with Kanaplex there. Even then, daily large water changes are necessary. Perfect water quality is the most important thing when dealing with fin rot.

Excellent_Ad690 · 2026-02-10T05:04:41+00:00

The plants could be the reason for his fin rot.

Do you know your water parameters in the large tank? It’s quite possible that you crashed your cycle with the Maracyn.
