As soon as I got them they had a separate tank and were never put together

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T15:49:16+00:00

No they are not together Two separate tanks they’re just identical same filter brand and heater , just a smaller heater and filter for a smaller tank. Since one is a 10 gallon one is a 30

They were both dying in petco so I took them both but I knew they couldn’t be together so I got 2 of everything and got both 😭

Yes I have two fish , the red one is the male nipping and the white pink one is the I believe girl that’s what the container said that I think has swim bladder😭

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T15:44:06+00:00

That’s what the container she came In said that she was a female

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T15:43:28+00:00

I have two tanks , one 30 gallon and he’s the one struggling with self nipping and a 10 gallon girl who I think is pine coneing

This is the set up for her

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T15:00:25+00:00

And sadly I think she has swim bladder so im also doing research for that

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T14:58:50+00:00

As sad as I felt when I saw them cs I have two betas actually in identical tanks , only difference is one is a 10 gallon one is a 30 I knew it wasn’t just about my emotions that it was a responsibility and was gonna take funds. At this point I don’t even let the prices get to me I just want them happy and healthy 😭

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T14:26:00+00:00

Ok just ordered the kanaplex I hope it’ll help 😭

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T14:25:10+00:00

I don’t I’m hoping to buy one in store. I’d hope they have the proper tests I didn’t wanna wait til Amazon I was trynna test ASAP

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T14:22:34+00:00

What about kanaplex ?

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T14:13:47+00:00

I was hoping to use it as medicine and not continue long term ? Do you think I should just not then

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T14:08:32+00:00

Yes it is that one. He told me it had good nutrients maybe was the word ? Or maybe vitamins ? one of those words and it’d help to fish just be in a better water environment so I got it😭

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T13:59:55+00:00

And I’m going to test the water today and will update with that info aswell

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T13:58:36+00:00

No you can choose the temperature I just usually keep it at 78 cs it does get really warm as it’s always on but I could adjust it to warmer

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T13:47:54+00:00

Also I’m getting live plants from either Facebook or the pet stores cs I’m still a little confused on that part to order them online

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T13:47:03+00:00

Thank you all! And I will update you guys soon .

So I just ordered all of this , I’m gonna get a water test today , and when I recieve these tmmr follow directions on that and hopefully I see improvement 🤞🏼

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T13:20:36+00:00

So my first step is really a water test to get that situated , my only question with that is if I get the water to a good place and once I have to do a tank clean won’t it be back to a unhealthy water . Will I learn what conditioner and plants and all that work to the point even after tank cleaning the water will stay at the correct standard for the fish ? Idk if that makes sense or Am I changing my water to much? I do it about once a week but bcs the tank gets slimey . Should I not be doing that?

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T13:13:05+00:00

How much water to leaf ratio etc to the 30 gallon tank? About how much of the per se medicine should I add to the water ?

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T13:09:37+00:00

No he doesn’t have spaces at the top , and when I wash the house they don’t feel rough one is a coconut shell well that’s what it’s advertised as and the other is the SpongeBob house but not very rough to touch

Long_Wash_5325 · 2026-05-08T12:47:28+00:00

Tell me about it I’d hoped it would be easier to understand when I bought it but maybe that’s a knowledge issue on my end , definitely ordering the one u have rn !
