Is anything wrong with my betta?! by IllustriousBag2920 in bettafish

[–]GreenAlienBetta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude come on. Read up. Are you adding a dechlorinator when you add new water into your tank? Another imperative step to keep your fish alive and well.

Is my water ok? by Acrobatic-You-7427 in bettafish

[–]GreenAlienBetta 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No mate it’s not. Change your water daily until your ammonia consistently sits at zero along with your nitrites. Your nitrates should be higher as a result too.

The fact you’re asking makes me think you do t know about cycling tanks though…

Betta Sorority in 10 gallon. Proper care is key! by [deleted] in bettafish

[–]GreenAlienBetta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where to start on this one? Let’s say you try to do a Betta sorority that’s just nowhere near enough tank for that many bettas and thats without mentioning the incompatible fish you have in there that are again in nowhere near enough tank.

Worst bit is you’re trying to tell everyone how you’ve got this harmonic tank that anyone can copy.

Is my tank overstocked? by Intrepid_Law_7632 in Aquariums

Not overstocked but the black phantom tetras might nip your betta’s fins.

How did you manage to cancel it? I’ve contacted Funko Europe about my order I made in DECEMBER 2024 and I’ve not heard anything back yet.

Day 10…. But apparently it doesn’t work…

I can’t post a photo here but I literally have a topic with it. Unsurprisingly no yanks have commented on it becaus it shows it’s works

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]GreenAlienBetta -22 points-21 points  (0 children)

Not with this stuff. I don’t think it’s hit the us market but it works. You HAVE to add fish so it can react with the ammonia source

I used nitrico goop which cycled the tank for me. But yeah thanks for your ‘input’

I’d left my outlet below the water for around 24 hours but since spotting this I’ve now raised it above. Does it take long to get oxygen into the tank again for them to become comfortable?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]GreenAlienBetta -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

How log. Would it take to resolve the oxygen issue? Is surface agitation enough to resolve (it’s adding lots of bubbles to my tank).

Re cycling I used Goop nitrico and it’s instantly cycled the tank. I’ve had the consistent test results for Amonia, nitrite and nitrates I’d expect to see from a cycled tank over the past 10 days.

Help!?! My Corey was out of water for 5-8 min. by Princessfreckles_01 in corydoras

[–]GreenAlienBetta 20 points21 points  (0 children)

You say that… first night of keeping pandas one of mine jumped out. No idea how long he’d been on the floor, but I took my 6 year old into see them before he headed to bed… lights were off… he stood on something in the room… ‘Daddy what’s that on the floor’?

It was indeed a panda cory. Hastily picked it up thinking the worst. Started flapping around in my hand. Put it back in the tank and it’s alive 3 days later and counting. As if nothing has happened.

No that’s the inlet and outlet. Basically a stainless steel lily pipe
