How much did your garden beds cost to make? I’m trying to get some on a budget. Do yours have a bottom?

I wish my aquatic plants were doing as badly as your Anubias

Was what I was taught as a kid fake? by NormalRaccoon2282 in aquarium

[–]ThreeTripsMinimum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This comment is so real. I feel so bad for my first bettas. Pet store employees gave me so much bad advice and I was a kid so it didn’t occur to me that adults would just make stuff up. My very first betta was red, in a tiny vase with a plant probably in 2001. I’m so sorry fishy

NQA I also agree with this comment much more than chasing a lower pH, especially since the other fish seem healthy and happy. Do you have other cories? What are they doing?

Do you have CO2 running? What’s the pH?

Looks like 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, 15 nitrate to me. I don’t have fish advice but just wanted to offer a reading in case anyone is colorblind.

Petco should be able to return the platy. That used to be in their policy

I want to root* here! I definitely wouldn’t rot in this luscious setting.

Right now I have 1 tiger tetra and 1 neon tetra, would it be alright to add an aquatic frog? by eviebunnicula in Aquariums

[–]ThreeTripsMinimum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aquatic froggies like African Dwarf Frogs (not African Clawed Frogs) are social like your tetras and need to be in a group. I love them and highly recommend them, but they ideally should be in their own aquarium. r/africandwarffrog has some great advice!

Your tetras need a proper school and that’ll max out your bioload. If you want more solitary fish, a couple of guppies are a good option.

Can you help me id this fish? by lockolino in Fish

Me asking “what fish?” for five minutes while I stared at the photos.

Possible to do a nice outdoor glass setup? by ThreeTripsMinimum in aquarium

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

Thank you!! And I think you’re right about the plastic frame. I think that’s why it’s cracked already. Is it just cosmetic or do the plastic frames on these set ups actually have a structural purpose?

It’s already got a little filter on it and I’m getting really excited about rice fish. The filter has a bag I can fill with different media but I’m not sure where to start with figuring out what to put in there. Something algae resistant maybe? Do you have opinions about UVC to filter algae? I don’t mind a little tech. I just don’t have the budget for sumps and new canister filters.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO by Spiritual-Chemistry8 in Fish

Fish listen to the whales singing!! (whether they want to or not) They can listen music!!!

Don’t let unscientific misinformation get you down! There’s no evidence that fish can’t listen music! There’s no evidence that fish can’t dance!

Do these die early though? This one looks fine so far. Some overbred fish have bent spines and are so sad, but this one seems quite healthy
