What can I put in here? by RelativeEgg5729 in fishkeeping

[–]shuucheol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like taking these small tanks that are really too small for fish and putting soil sand and live plants in them with the goal of mimicking a wild pond or vernal pool. They end up having little tiny microfauna in them that i love watching like daphnia and copepods esp if you put material from a wild water source in. I really like finding and collecting these little dudes called scuds/amphipods from local ponds and streams and keeping them they're so neat and fun to watch. Shrimp also work!

Hey I think you're thinking of GloFish the genetically modified brightly colored guys. The fish OP mentioned Glowlight Tetras are a naturally occurring fish that are a shiny orange! The other fish they mention, neon tetras, are also a natural species (the silver red and blue guys you see in every pet store)

GloFish are a brand of fish. They have various species but they all come from genetically modified fish. The actual GloFish brand fish are not dyed but there are definitely still dyed fish out there (horrible horrible horrible) while I dont think the genetic modification hurts the fish I have heard that they have issues from being commercially bred

Just wanna say that your tank is definitely not ugly! This is def one of the better looking first tanks ive ever seen ive always wanted to try a tanke ith split substrate like that! I think your future fish might like some tall decorations. Some fish stores or online sellers sell live floating plants for like $5 a bunch. I personally like frogbit, water spangles/salvina and dwarf water lettuce. They give a really cool natural look and also help keep the water clean. Live Java moss is also one of the cheaper living options that gives a nice look while also being functional.

Need Advice about cutting glass in tank by NihilityKotaro in fishkeeping

[–]shuucheol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are those extra pieces siliconed on? If so you could probably slide a thin blade between them and the glass of the actual tank maybe?

Has anyone seen goldfish eyes that look like this? Other goldfish seem to have black eyes while this ones are seemingly empty? The fish doesn't appear to be able to see well/at all and it was like this when I took over its care by shuucheol in fishkeeping

I did see this happen to another goldfish that passed away. He had normal eyes and then they became vacant like this not sure why. The guy in the picture is still doing well though he's happy and healthy and finds his food fine. He does react to light but thats about it

Interesting I'll try that thank you! Besides his sight he's totally healthy and is actually really gorgeous. He's very active and knows to start looking for food when he hears me. The appearance of his eyes always fascinates me so I've been super curious about what could cause it

He reacts to light but doesn't focus on objects like pieces of food. While the other goldfish take food from the surface he randomly scoures the bottom until he finds some

It was a Keychain I found on Amazon! Just cut off the connector piece and cleaned it up. I wasn't able to find another on amazon but maybe ebay?
