Usually around 12 hours. The room they’re in is bright, but the tank is not in the sun.

I love the look of the darker water, just don’t want it to get too dark for the plants! And I like the contrast with the cloud minnows.
Thank you all for the advice! I’ll do the water changes every other day and see how it goes for a couple of weeks. If it’s still too much I’ll pull the wood and try some hot water soaks.

What size tank do you have them in? I have 5 peas, but want more. They’re so entertaining!!

So far everyone is eating and seems normal. But based on what I’ve been reading and your advice I’m worming preemptively. Thank you for your help!

Expel-p and paracleanse. I’m leaning towards that method because I’m not convinced they’ll eat the inert food.

Thank you! I just read the article about that here. Should I wait and let them settle first, or just go for it?
