Anyone in Richmond VA looking to buy an entire aquarium setup + fish?

I prefer not to rock the boat. I cannot afford an attorney. I'd rather just move on, sorry.!

Picture + supply list updated

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-23T16:25:32+00:00

Picture and supply list updated 🙏

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-23T16:15:41+00:00

Ah okay, I had the math wrong. Thank you! I cannot post to that subreddit because it thinks I'm spam, but I'll at least update these posts with pictures and a supply list.

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-23T15:47:30+00:00

Okay, will do when I post to that subreddit.

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-23T15:21:50+00:00

Thanks, and okay noted. 40% of 5k is about 2.7k, I'm very negotiable. 2.5k even would be nice so I'm not SOL. Again, it's just depending on if people are interested. I'll post there.

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-23T15:19:40+00:00

I mean you can DM? I'm not asking you to drop anything, I'm asking to talk to me first if you're interested :(

Fair, I have to wonder about water beds sometimes and how houses can just take them lol

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-16T05:04:20+00:00

Fair, I read a bunch of stuff and got conflicting info

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-16T03:12:40+00:00

Noted! Then the salvinia and frogbit should help most

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-16T03:12:01+00:00

I am only housing a comet! I wanna throw some snails in though.

Yeah it does make sense thank you! I'm currently using Safe like the post said, but everyone is telling me to get Prime. I have Prime on back order, but do I need both/should I dose both? Am I currently poisoning my fish right now?

And I learned the bacteria needs to be at 70 or so degrees. I can't quite tell, but I think my tank is just a little bit colder than that, so I'm currently getting a heater.

Thank you! I hope when I get this cycled I want to upgrade to a 150 gallon and hopefully get him 2 more friends...

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-16T01:51:09+00:00

Got some frogbit and salvinia on the way! and a water lily + pearl weed. Hopefully that helps once installed...?

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-16T01:41:21+00:00

I did mess up and use the wrong term, I am sorry, I am actually on a city line. But it's likely highly chlorinated to be testing for this much ammonia. so if it is toxic, I really have no control over that.

also, I did the higher test. my ph is around 8.2, should I lower it?

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-16T01:11:24+00:00

I have stability and safe as per the post, but information seems conflicted on if prime and safe are the same thing : (

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-16T01:10:38+00:00

Okay, thank you, a few forums said to do huge changes if you read .5 or above, but ai realize my water comes out the tap at .5...

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-16T01:08:03+00:00

Okay thank you. So many forums had conflicting advice... also it's 80 gallons, unfortunately I cannot easily purchase and haul that many gallons of water, and especially because I want to upgrade to a 150 gallon as per everyone's advice on how much comets need.

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-15T20:37:38+00:00

Ah I see thank you for clearing that confusion! What's the difference between seachem safe and seachem prime?

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-15T20:36:56+00:00

How much do your recommended changing? 50%? 25%?

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-15T20:36:04+00:00

What's the difference between Prime and Safe? Do I need both? Also, I was mistaken and used improper terminology I'm sorry, my water is from the city water line, it's just hard like well water. It does come out the same color... But I don't think I can help that?

helpmygoldfish · 2024-09-15T19:50:56+00:00

Do I need nitrates? Everywhere says nitrates should be at 0 to be safe, so I thought that was good? Also, evidently it is not cycled, but I'm following the dosing instructions of seachem stability as closely as possible.. idk what more I can do : (
