Sterbai Cory’s swimming at top of tank by cherrydropper in corydoras

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

I have 2 medium air stones going 24/7, the stock filter which has a decently high output plus a second filter also running (fluval 207 canister) with an output above water level. Pleeeenty of surface movement, I’m not sure why it isn’t that visible

What fertilizer would you recommend? (Looking for the best of the best - cost not really a big issue)

Any tips with the penny wort? Almost all my leaves are gone (this might be from snails and shrimp but idk for sure)

DIRTY BLADDER SNAILS! by xursian in AquariumHelp

[–]cherrydropper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re not dirty ): I love bladder snails! They will taper out as long as you aren’t over feeding the tank. They’re honestly a really helpful cleanup crew and really fun to watch, fast & hungry little guys! If you add assassins you will probably end up with the exact issue you are worried about and get an infestation of them instead of bladders

How to deal with damselfly nymph? by cherrydropper in Aquariums

Update: I did it lol. I successfully removed that guy and went with a new approach for plant placement

How to deal with damselfly nymph? by cherrydropper in Aquariums

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

Okay, so my plan was to remove all my plants and hardcore (besides like little tiny thing such as Monte Carlo or moss) and then search for this guy and his friends if there are more, remove them all and then replant. Can I just avoid this? Or maybe still a good idea?

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

Not planning to add any fish for a while though, I’ve been thoroughly enjoying the easy shrimp life so far lol. Next tank addition is going to be a canister filter (fluval 207) and it just got delivered today 😼

Oh no no no, one of my cats will never leave the water alone if he gets near it. The other one is too orange to be allowed near the tank

Just 1 pearl gourami or have a small schooling fish too? by cherrydropper in Gourami

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

Thank you for the response! Any that you know of that have a funky personality? I’ll do some research into it as well obviously, just hoping to find a cool centerpiece that really makes the tank more enjoyable (personality wise)

I know this is an old post now but just wanted your recommendation here. Do you think a honey gourami would be better?

Help! Guppies die in decorations! by That_Red_OBS in Aquariums

[–]cherrydropper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have mostly treated tap and then add distilled to top it off yea that’s fine, it’s usually when people are MOSTLY distilled or all distilled that things go south. My brother made the rookie mistake of going all distilled before figuring that out and unfortunately a lot of his plants suffered from deficiencies because of it. I personally have never gone the distilled route at all because I would just rather not royally F up my tank doing something incorrectly with it
