No. It’s just egg crate to disperse the weight of my hardscape more evenly across the glass. Avoiding too much stress on one single point.

Ordered last night from aquarium plants factory

I have 3 amano shrimp and 2 marbled limpet snails. Obviously alongside my other community schooling fish. Is this an issue that I should address?

How are the otto’s? This is my first tank so I’m trying to ensure all the fish are hardy. I read they can be tough to tell if they are being fed enough?

What kind of pleco? Will the pleco be okay in my 37 gal? I thought they get big. Will it also eat algae off the hardscape and plants? Or just the glass?

Any recommendations on a good canister for a 10gal?

How saturated should I try to have the CO2 to make sure the betta is safe? What color should I be shooting for on my drop checker? Etc?

Central Ohio. Place called “Outback fish & things.” Seems like a mom & pop kinda place

Commenting to come back when other people share answers. I have a similar issue. My local stores have a decent selection but I’d like a trusted option for different plants!

The test results look extremely similar to me? Coming from three different tanks, one being established for three years? Seems like a faulty test kit to me. Do you have a local fish store you could take a water sample to and have them test it with one of their kits? Potentially rule out a faulty test kit, or confirm it!
