  1. 75g updates:
    -I caught most of the guppies in my 75g and paludarium and took them to my LFS. I ended up getting enough store credit for two three spot gourami and a gold roseline shark.
    -I added two three spot gourami and an electric blue acara to replace the hoard of guppies.

    -I removed the monte carlo that was on the left. I never liked how it looked so I finally gave up on it. I moved more Eriocaulon over to the front and added anubias to the cave.20230909_174154.jpg.1f02e6bccfdc70cc7ebd62d64adf4160.jpg

  3. I usually dose twice a week with your same schedule. I have no issues keeping my nitrates up.

    Theoretically as long as your nitrates never drop to 0, it shouldn't matter if they are at 5-10ppm or 20ppm. If you do want your nitrates to increase I would dose more often. You could probably add an extra pump or two once a day on the other 5 days of the week and see where things go from there.

  4. I've had success with Maracyn, Maracyn 2 and API fin and body cure. I know that most fin rot cases are caused by gram negative bacteria, so it makes the most logical sense to use an antibiotic like maracyn 2 (this is also what Fritz recommended when I contact them). However, aquarium coop recommends Maracyn and it seems to work in my experience, so that is my go to (even though it makes NO logical sense).

  5. I can usually fix this by cleaning off the top of the diffuser, emptying it of water and then reconnecting it + securing it with zip ties. However, I've had to replace the diffuser to get it to stop before. Not sure exactly why it happens.
