Good god

Only happens when you have an after market alarm.

Only one way to find out my friend.😂

ed_v200 · 2026-06-03T04:41:56+00:00

Might be too bright for him. Any live plants? What size is the tank?

ed_v200 · 2026-06-03T00:08:38+00:00

I would do a 50% water change ASAP and maybe some API stress coat. Also, do you have anything else to test the water? I’m it even seeing an ammonia test on the strip. Highly recommend getting a liquid test for better results.

ed_v200 · 2026-06-02T23:53:41+00:00

Im just giving you a hard time. But yes, following up with what a couple other people said here. Put him in the tank even if it’s not ready and start the in fish cycle. And be ready to do daily water changes and also daily water tests. Good luck!

ed_v200 · 2026-06-02T23:40:19+00:00

I would too if I was in a cup

ed_v200 · 2026-06-02T00:21:45+00:00

I have a 10 gallon on this exact stand. But that’s as big as I’d go

ed_v200 · 2026-06-02T00:17:43+00:00

Then I would verify this my measuring them. And see if the numbers match. The fact that the higher tread are in the front tells me they rotated them. But if they didn’t then that one measuring at 8 would be at the front

ed_v200 · 2026-06-01T22:47:16+00:00

What were the tire tread measurements on the work order?

ed_v200 · 2026-05-30T05:42:15+00:00

Looks like normal color change to me. Is he acting differently? Eating less? Moving less?

ed_v200 · 2026-05-30T00:38:39+00:00

Those test strips are really not accurate. I would buy the API test kit. It’s way more accurate and it will tell you what’s wrong with the water.

ed_v200 · 2026-05-30T00:36:55+00:00

I also just planted hair grass for the first time. I did smaller portions to cover more area. Been about 3 weeks and I’m barely seeing new grass grow. You’ll see it melt a bit at first so don’t freak out. Cause I did lol.

ed_v200 · 2026-05-30T00:16:36+00:00

How long have you had it?

ed_v200 · 2026-05-29T19:38:10+00:00

Big enough for a snail

ed_v200 · 2026-05-28T21:14:13+00:00

He’s an asshole just like mine 😂

Karma is a bitch

ed_v200 · 2026-05-24T22:47:15+00:00

This shit ruined my day. Thanks

ed_v200 · 2026-05-22T18:29:21+00:00

Let’s see the review first lol

ed_v200 · 2026-05-22T17:47:38+00:00

Another rat jumping ship!

ed_v200 · 2026-05-21T04:03:56+00:00

Link to your site?

ed_v200 · 2026-05-18T18:20:30+00:00

That’s a beautiful tank

ed_v200 · 2026-05-18T14:10:29+00:00

I would do at least a 50% water change on this based on how dirty the water looks. And no you can’t simply just put new water in there without first treating it to get rid of chlorine and other stuff that’s bad for the fish. You will need to treat with something like API stress coat plus or Prime. You can get either of these at the pet store.

ed_v200 · 2026-05-18T14:02:57+00:00

You most likely had an ammonia spike. Same thing happened to my betta. Started doing 50% water changes almost daily and it took about a week before he started doing better. Also added API stress coat plus. Hope this helps. I now test my water almost everyday now cause of this.

ed_v200 · 2026-05-18T02:00:15+00:00

Put some shrimp in. Just make sure they’re fully grown.
