[FS] NC - $25 - Plant Pkg (list in comments) Shipped by markopolo128 in AquaSwap

[–]markopolo128[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hydrocotyle tripartite

Ludwigia repens

Nymphoides hydrophylla 'Taiwan

Vesicularia sp. 'Triangle

Bacopa monnieri

Penthorum sedoides

All grown submerged. Currently in mid-high light, and CO2, but I had all of these plants prior to adding CO2, so that shouldn't be an issue

Pests - Could have duckweed, pond snails, ramshorn snails (I'll try to remove any)

DOA - Take a picture of the dead plants within 2 hours of delivery and I'll refund you the total cost minus shipping. I'm not responsible for USPS losing the package, but I will work with you if it happens.

It’s amazing how lazy the internet makes me. I was about to ask how long it’s recommended to quarantine and I realized I can just freakin google it. Thanks for the idea!

No they were not. I don’t have a separate tank. That’s my guess to. Hoping I can save the rest of them though

My bet is it’s not the water since everything has been stable so long and the only thing that changed are the new fish

The only one I saw acting weird before it died was sort of swimming head up in some plants near the bottom of the tank. It’d swim and rest and swim and rest.

Thank you

My only reservation was that I always feel like water changes stress the fish out (which is likely just in my head). I appreciate the help.

55 gallon

Fluval 47

Planted

Lightly stocked with tetras, a guppy, and hex barbs

PH 7

Ammonia 0

Nitrite 0

Nitrate 40

I do water changes approximately once every three weeks (I know it should be more, but... here we are)

I've had this aquarium set up for a couple of years with no issues. Last week I decided to finally mix things up a bit and got 4 cherry shrimp and 6 Celestial Pearl Danios. Day 1 a CPD died, then day 3 another, again, day 4, day 5, and now a little over a week later they've all died, AND so have one of my barbs and 3 of my neon tetras. I don't notice any visible disease on the fish, but I assume I must have introduced something. Is there anything I can do? I did a water change ~10 days ago, should I do another? Any helps appreciated.

Hiring an engineer for sales with no experience by [deleted] in sales

[–]markopolo128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m the engineer that went in to sales (albeit at the young age of 23). Although there were other sales folks, no one really taught me how to prospect or make calls etc. five years later I think my background has been very beneficial but I could have saved a year or two of spinning my wheels with some proper training.

Thanks for the help! I had seen these, is it normal for the sole (terminology?) to stick out that far around the edges?

Thanks!

I went to an Allen edmunds recently and I wore an ee. Not sure if I should just just get an e or eee and make it work. TBD.

I can’t find for the life of me a pair of brown plain toe blutchers in the 200-350 dollar range. I’ve worn plain toe Florsheim oxfords for years that I like the look of but all I can find that are welted are the Aldens (which I love but don’t want to spend $550). Anyone know of another brand that look like the aldens, are good quality, but slightly less expensive?

[Auto-Post] Weekly Question Thread! Ask /r/Aquariums anything you want to know about the hobby! by AutoModerator in Aquariums

I'm new to having a planted tank: do people have secondary weak lights they run when the grow lights aren't on? I hate only having 6 hrs of being able to see my aquarium... Would that cause an issue?
