    VETO!

    As long as it's 100% silicone without mold inhibitors it should be the same.

    Do you have a picture of them? I don't know of a golden siamese algae eater. I know of Golden Chinese algae eaters which are very different fish. Golden Chinese algae eaters can be very territorial and get to like 10 inches. I'd use lots of caution with that pairing.

    Yeah, there was a bug with the conversion website we were using and had to find a different one and uploaded the full one later in the day.

    I think getting the ones you have now healthy is the right start before adding more. If you think about it logically, If you had 3 dogs who were sick, would you get 3 more, and quarantine them all to try and get 6 pets healthy? That's just harder than getting the initial 3 healthy, then doing it again later, if something goes wrong you have more time to dedicate to it. As for adding more fish, make sure you are aware that the fish you have now will already be quite the load for a 40 gallon pond. Adding more will require more work. You could remove all the plants and use salt at 1 tablespoon per gallon to treat any external bacterial and fungal infections. Then change water and do the trio. Or you can just wait for meds to arrive.

    It pulls the first picture from the thread, otherwise a mod is filling it in.

    I'd try the daphnia and brine shrimp as the shells are high in fiber. The faster for a couple of days likely helped, have you see him poop at all?

    Reducing stress has been the only thing I've seen that can help reduce the size. Do you have any other pictures from say the side to get a better look at it?

    I personally wouldn't only every do bulkheads, when the DIY ones lose siphons, it's just a flood.

    I use Fluval 3.0 lights on my 800g, which is 40 inches tall. Should work well for you as well.

    I need to finish moving so I can get some of those albino haplo catfish.

    I've got money that says, that pepsi is from Costco 😛

    For farms that raise fish, the goal is 2% of body weight every day as far as "scientifically" goes.

    Carnivore pellets would work, so would frozen blood worms, repashy, flakes, pellets etc. As to amount that's pretty hard to explain over the internet. Make sure the belly doesn't sink in and it should be getting enough over time.

    I can't wait to be setting up tanks again and using these in more of a capacity than testing.

    Outside almost done. More electrical done inside putting in plugs, 2 more cargo containers delivered today. Moving along.

    Use a camlink4k and then choose a camera. I believe the Sony zv1 is incredible value for most. I still consider using it for streaming. It’s my main filming camera, it’s basically a much more expensive camera on the cheap. Holds its own just fine.

    Dechlorinators don't kill ammonia. They bind it up for 24 hours. After that it's back in the tank hurting things. I don't recommend any anti ammonia stuff. Just water changes, dechlor to remove chlorine and salt to heal them. When things are dying and uneaten food, it can go up very quickly. I would change water again and get it to 0, and not feed, and monitor with salt in the water of 1 tablespoon per gallon and let these guys heal up.

    If you change water less often the crushed coral will take the place of having to add baking soda.

    All plants can get some nutrients from their roots. Scarlet temple gets alot of it from the water column as well.
  21. Cory
    Did you quarantine or put any meds through them? Typically small comets like that are just barely a step above feeder fish and can run rampant with disease.
  22. Cory
    Likely not using any dechlor killed all your bacteria and burned the gills on your first. I'll fast forward to how I would get through this. Heat the tank to roughly 78 to reduce stress and speed up ich life cycle. use ich x once daily with a 50% water change each day. I'd start that today, and I wouldn't be feeding until ammonia and nitrites return to zero.
  23. Cory
    Fungal and bacterial infections are running rampant it looks like. I would pull the plants and do 1 tablespoon of salt per gallon. Or dose ich x/maracyn to stop the damage.

    Found another turtle egg today so I had to setup my incubator.

    We joined the nerm life when we removed a love seat from the living room to setup another tank. I used logic of, I’ll use that tank every day. The loveseat only get used when we have guests... that was like 12 years ago. The rest is history.
