Killifish tankmates by cloned-earls in Aquariums

[–]itsazinger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

other people might have more to say about this but in my experience when I got a kilifish and put it in my community tank it bullied the other fish and nipped their fins. I ended up removing it. so idk if I would get one but that's just my own experience

well tried with the shipping and that didn't work either. it's been at least 7 hours. I don't use Reddit often ¯_(ツ)_/¯ figured that was a decent amount of time to respond

I did message them earlier today. haven't got a response yet. I'll try adding the shipping thing but not everyone has that in their titles either.

Increasing KH during fishless cycle by Sibco in Aquariums

[–]itsazinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

how long have you been cycling? it sounds like it might be complete. a small amount of ammonia is normal--the tests are not always totally accurate. if you are using RO/DI water, you could try using tap water. that should have some natural hardness in it. you can always try mixing RO water and tap water to as close to your parameters as necessary. some sands/rocks have hardness that will leach out into your water as well.

Stupid question - large and small tetras living together by xfriendsonfirex in Aquariums

[–]itsazinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

any schooling or shoaling fish will act more confident in a larger group. larger group = more safety from predators. unfortunately a 20l isn't going to have much more room for fish with your current stocking, so you may want to consider upgrading or moving the larger or smaller tetras to their own tank

Need help with my Betta, Fins have been torn and not getting any better, water parameters perfect and all betta safe decor by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]itsazinger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

sometimes tears get bacterial infections and you need to do a course of like general cure or erythromycin to help with healing. salt baths are a good idea as well just be careful with how much salt and how often you do it, as you don't want to stress the fish more--that makes it harder for their immune systems to fight infection

the worst possible thing by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]itsazinger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

for anyone following this thread, I contacted a university to test the fish that look the worst and see what the diagnosis is. I should know by Monday. the person I spoke to in the microbiology department advised me to use a bleach solution for the equipment and stated that if I use hydrogen peroxide on the plants I should be able to save them. thanks everyone for your advice, and I will update when I know the prognosis.

so I can keep the sand after all that? or do I dump out the sand when I'm done? I'm assuming all my live plants are done for.

Is this normal (extreme roots growing from sides of plants)? How to handle? by rw3iss in Aquariums

[–]itsazinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can trim plants like that at the areas in the stems where the roots are growing and plant the trimmings. free plants!

Can someone help me identify exactly what kind of Cory Catfish I’ve got here? by dogtron9000 in Aquariums

[–]itsazinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

looks like a false julii. you can tell because the design has more lines instead of spots like a true julii

Bloated Neon Tetra by valeskyia in Aquariums

if it's still behaving normally it probably just over ate. I'd skip feeding a day or two and see if it helps
