    Wow, welcome and that is a beautiful betta.
  2. redfish
    Kinda looks like the root tab gel after it breaks down and floats.

    Testing is the only way I know to help validate if the tank is "cycled and balanced" without waiting weeks. What do you have in the QT right now for filtration and substrate?
  4. redfish
    Testing the water parameters would be a helpful start to check if the tank is safe or not.
  5. redfish
    Sounds like you need to do a side by side test if you really want gain more insight into your question based on your water conditions.

    I saw that but I was trying to avoid being a big spender on a shrimp net.... 🤣 I also wasn't sure of the quality. Seems like it would be fine for light duty.

    Thanks for the replies. I agree, getting both will be ideal. I'll probably start with one and see how it goes. Next question : Which size opening? Most I see are 2 inch and 3 inch. @TheSwissAquarist I expect to get some blue neo's soon and have a few ghost shrimp right now. If I can't find the blue's locally, maybe I'll reach out to @JettsPapa.

    What are some opinions on shrimp nets. What works better, round or square? I wish we had a poll function for some questions.

    I’m having mixed results with stem plants. Pogo seems to fade away over a few weeks in a couple different tanks. I have another round of Pogo now, hoping a more seasoned tank will help it grow. Water sprite is hanging around both planted and floating but not exploding with new growth. Hornwort is doing the best so far for a floater. Swords seems to be growing well along with the anubias.

    We are setting up a 10 gal for shrimp. Kids want blue neos. I used Fluval Stratum for substrate. It was really hard to get the water clear using Stratum. I’m currently look for some rocks to help scape the tank. We have some cholla wood and driftwood. Will add some moss and other plants too. I picked up 6 ghost shrimp for our community tank today as an impulse buy.
  11. redfish
    That's a big piece of wood. Looks like it would need a really large tank to support anything else in the tank.
  12. redfish
    Yes. We have had a bad run with pregnant female guppies. It feels bad but it happens sometimes. Completely unexpected too.

    How does Jungle Fizz fit in with the recommended med trio? Is it a replacement to anything (Maracyn, Ich-X, ParaCleanse) or is it another med to add as needed?
  14. redfish
    @nabokovfan87 Is Ich-X similar to Jungle fizz for treatment?
  15. redfish
    The vent on theses rams seems to be one of the best ways to tell.
  16. redfish
    I agree. Our betta would not leave neo shrimp alone but does not mess the nerite snails.
  17. redfish
    You too? So many bushes just had to be that deer I’ve been waiting on all day. 🤣
  18. redfish
    We have thought about getting an axolotl but don’t have a good way to keep the tank cool year round right now.
  19. redfish
    Thanks y’all. I appreciate it.
  20. redfish
    Nice looking pair. I hope they work out for you.
  21. redfish
    I would recommend reading through the experiment or journal forums to see the other member tubs too.
  22. redfish
    Well done. It looks nice! I’ve been looking for some nice rocks like that too.
  23. redfish
    What a great journey.
  24. redfish
    That’s my goal if we can get a colony going. I want to add them to each tank possible.
  25. redfish
    Awesome!!!! I put a few Cherry’s in with our betta. They didn’t last long as the betta stalked them constantly. I picked up a new 10 gal just for shrimp. The kids want blue ones so I’ll be looking for some in a couple months.
