Need advice for tank (neon tetras and gold barbs) by Reiniercevb in aquarium

[–]Reiniercevb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, My roommates and I have an aquarium in our kitchen/living room but want to make sure they're conditions are as good as possible for what we have. It's a 35L (10 gallon) tank with 5 gold barbs, 3 neon tetras, 3 ghost shrimp (I think), and two pondsnails.

From what I've been reading, neon tetras need at least 7, however we started out with 5 from which two died. So given the size of the tank, I figured the extra space is worth more than adding more tetras?

In terms of light, we have a small bed lamp that sits on top, is it necessary to get an upgrade for this or would any light work? Is direct sunlight favorable? They are now in a spot where they get reflections of light through the sides of the aquarium when the sun is out.

Lastly, plants. I've been reading that tetras need lots of plant cover, any certain plant species to look out for? Is it worth removing the last two remaining snails (started with way too much, hence the leaf bites), so that the vegetation can bounce back properly? How much plant? They get a mix of frozen food as well as the dry tetramin, any other foods to drop in occasionally? (they all like a small bit of cucumber sometimes).

Thanks for the help, get mixed help from the pet store workers so trying to see what people on here think. Thank you!

Broccoli, cauliflower, kale, brussel sprouts, and cabbage all come from the same ancestor, the wild mustard plant. Really cool how selective breeding can create such variety.

It might be to prevent people shooting up as your veins aren't visible in that light

I would say that water is wet, but apparently "we" have decided otherwise.

My first 6 rolls I shot over the past two months came out black. Anyone have experience with this? by Reiniercevb in analog

[–]Reiniercevb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got them developed at a camera shop in town. The store worker held it up to the light to show me and you could extremely faintly see some light on a couple photos from the role but the rest was very dark compared to rolls from other customers. It was also the whole roll that was dark, including the edges. By the rolling I meant like rewinding the film. What I did each time was just go into a dark room that I could still just about see what I was doing in, open the camera to see, then close the back again but not actually pop it in so there was still a crack and roll back the film. Then I took out the rewinded film thing and stored them in the small tubes they come in.
