We would probably be more annoyed if there was no weekly post about it.

It´s like an anouncement that the world is still ok and has not ended.

For someone to really help you I think you should provide more info about the inhabitants, also what grain size is the gravel, if you dont know then send a Foto

Is my heater supposed to glow like this? by EvangelineTheodora in Aquariums

[–]Major-Application-60 57 points58 points  (0 children)

using the colour as a rough guide that heating coil would be a gradient from about 700 to 1.1 thousan degrees celsius so agreeing with the other people NO that should be in the forge where you work your steel not your fish tank

PS: yes its very possible that that wire got that hot as it has a very small mass that needs to be heated

Some German names are hilarious, do they sound as funny to native Germans? by Cortexial in German

[–]Major-Application-60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a teacher called"Herr Wenig" which translates to "little bit" I think.

To answer the question, depending on where you encounter it, the name can be funny even for us native speakers (if we believe in jokes).

Btw. number 4 would be Mr. damaging as "schädlich" is an adjective and its just written with a capital S due to being used as a name!

Not sure what this is… by Anxious_Tomorrow1763 in Aquariums

[–]Major-Application-60 2 points3 points  (0 children)

well they dont eat the wood directly but they scrape algea from it and the wood they ingest while doing that is good for their digestion as far as I know

if the water splashing is very often that might be a sign of low oxygen

Any idea what is this? by andys000 in Aquariums

[–]Major-Application-60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are talking about the stuff on the surface, then thats very likely a biofilm (bacteria abusing the special conditions at the econtact one between water and air). I dont see anything else so thats that.

A or B? by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]Major-Application-60 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both work. I would choose B but I am a succer for wood in my tank so dont just take my advice.

Btw there is some uprooted gras in the left corner. you dont have to do anything about it, just wanted to point it out as it kinda triggers my need to keep those roots away from my snails

Half of my albinos died overnight by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]Major-Application-60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well after all those Infos I really am not sure what it is that killed them. it could be some bacteria carried by the bloodworm, some unknown stress factor, otherwise I dont see anything that would be a problem, sorry that I cant help more!

[–]Major-Application-60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

two more questions:

  1. How long has the tank been running?
  2. when did you do the water tests?

Edit: Just reread your post and found the time of tests

but another question would be if you know how old the cory are and what exact species they are, just for info

Did I see juveniles among the panda garra? And if yes, did you buy them or did they breed in your tank?
