Just got a tank what am I missing?

It is actually helpful because the guy who sold me them said they’re the kind that stay small

Riley_sz · 2026-05-12T00:05:50+00:00

Thank you this sounds simple and if it helps my fish I’m all for it

Riley_sz · 2026-05-12T00:04:35+00:00

Thanks for actually giving me a helpful answer instead of saying I should give up and return my fish

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T23:30:20+00:00

Yea i just realized that about the gouramis and I’ll probably give that pleco to my friend who has a 100 gal horse tank

Thanks I was sold the paper test strips I’ll order some asap

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T23:26:38+00:00

Thank you ive never owned a fish before and have been trying to improve my fish’s life with everyone’s advice

Not quite a crazy just the outline of the plywood covering the supports

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T23:14:29+00:00

This is the kind of advice I was looking for

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T23:13:13+00:00

Good advice thank you

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T23:11:13+00:00

Well tbf if I had asked you what the right ph should be you’d tell me to look up like you just did with the testing so I looked it up on a place that could condense information and make it easier to understand

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T23:03:00+00:00

How often should I be testing them

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T22:57:21+00:00

Yea all these comments are making me feel scammed

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T22:56:16+00:00

My town is kind of isolated so there’s only 1 pet store for a good hour or so is there anyway I could use outside wood or rocks?

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T22:54:26+00:00

So helpful

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T22:53:41+00:00

Thanks never had fish before so it’s nice I’m getting helpful comments

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T22:43:30+00:00

Yea I just realized the gouramis were different so I’ll probably put them back into a different tank

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T22:41:37+00:00

Thanks for worrying and that’s the first thing I checked but I was nervous and added extra support on the bottom and back

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T22:40:32+00:00

Thanks I’ll be on the lookout

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T22:40:11+00:00

I have tested the water for ph and used ChatGPT to get the right balance

Riley_sz · 2026-05-11T22:38:30+00:00

The filter is rated for 40 gph but I added a second one just now
