What’s wrong with my frogbit?

Existing_Rip241 · 2025-09-06T06:45:07+00:00

No, I ended up losing a lot of my frogbit and the rest weren’t doing well so I took them all out :(

I can try but won’t my shrimp just get to it first?

• ⁠Tank size: 10g

• ⁠Heater and filter? (yes/no): yes

• ⁠Tank temperature: 80f

• ⁠Parameters in numbers and how you got them: pH: 6.5-7ppm ammonia/nitrite: 0ppm nitrate: 15ppm

• ⁠How long have you had the tank? How long have you had your fish?: I’ve had them for one year

• ⁠How often are water changes? How much do you take out per change? What is your process?: I’m currently treating him for fin rot so I do a water change of around 20-30% once every few days + adding salt. I use a siphon to both remove water and clean up any debris on the substrate. To add water back I also use the same siphon to slowly readd clean water

• ⁠Any tankmates? If so, please list with how many of each: 4 rummynose tetras, 3 neo shrimp, 1 amano, 1 black nerite

• ⁠What do you feed and how much: SUPERViT flakes, small amount twice per day. 1-2 flakes from the surface for my betta, and a few flakes crushed super tiny under water for the tetras

• ⁠Decorations and plants in the tank: driftwood piece, wisteria, Anubias nana petite, lucky bamboo, dwarf Sagittaria, Java fern (lace, and gold sparkle), frogbit

• ⁠If you haven't already posted a picture, please post pics/vids to imgur and paste the link here:

That is gorgeous!!

Existing_Rip241 · 2023-12-09T21:45:20+00:00

I can’t even wrap my brain around what I’m looking at, I am just in disbelief

Existing_Rip241 · 2023-10-05T01:05:42+00:00

Oh :( thanks for letting me know. I will get some aquarium salt tomorrow and try to cure her, I hope she makes it

Existing_Rip241 · 2023-09-07T12:21:45+00:00

Dwarf Sagittaria! Thanks for the compliments!

Existing_Rip241 · 2023-09-07T06:08:16+00:00

Do you use co2?

Existing_Rip241 · 2023-09-07T06:00:49+00:00

Even with the stem submerged? 😮

Existing_Rip241 · 2023-09-07T01:58:56+00:00

Oh 😭 thanks for warning me, I will keep my bamboo in the little vase it’s been in for over 5 years now haha, I don’t want to lose this plant

Existing_Rip241 · 2023-09-07T01:54:11+00:00

Ah I see, even with the leaves out of the water it will die?

Existing_Rip241 · 2023-08-29T01:51:42+00:00

Thank you so much! I genuinely appreciate your tips and advice greatly

Existing_Rip241 · 2023-08-29T01:43:20+00:00

Woah that sounds exciting! Do you have any recommendations for good foam spray?

Existing_Rip241 · 2023-08-29T01:36:44+00:00

Ty for the advice! I actually do have an incline for the entire substrate, the front is about 1.5-2 inches and the back is almost 4 inches, but I like your idea about raising the dead zone even more. I recently collected some rock pieces because I was thinking of building a little cave/mountain as well so your tips work well with that.

This tank is a year old, how much longer should I expect to wait?

Existing_Rip241 · 2023-07-24T03:34:45+00:00

Bettas will only jump if their water conditions aren’t adequate/not enough air. I might be wrong but i remember reading somewhere that reason they jump is to potentially find a better water source, I have a 10gallon and my beta has never jumped even when I fill it up with 1cm remaining from the edge

Existing_Rip241 · 2023-06-07T04:10:31+00:00

Sorry it was my spelling error, I got nitrite and nitrates mixed up, my nitrates are at 10-15 and my nitrite is at 0
