    Oh, yeah good idea, I am sure if you can get them from the pond he was in he would eat them. Also shrimp might work as well @JS Fish.

    Np, sorry that was a steal of a deal, but out of these 2 choices of “not taking a risk costing 0 dollars or “took the chance and it cost me 100+ dollars (prob 200+). Good decision @NikkiRae. Sorry about it tho.

    Hmmm… I would fill it with water (if you want to, that is a big tank there) and see if it leaks, it looks super scetchy to me, so I advise caution @NikkiRae. Besides that there is no further damage correct @NikkiRae?
  4. Whitecloud09
    The plant is new yes, like 3 weeks old, the tank is almost half a year old, cycled and thriving @MattyM, any suggestions?
  5. Whitecloud09
    I see a tiny hole in there, might be a problem, u could fill the tank up with water and see if it leaks @NikkiRae. It looks pretty damaged.

    Test strips are for kh and gh for me and test kit for the essentials (ammonia nitrite nitrates etc.) I ordered a new ammonia test kit because mine had lots of junk around the cap and wasn’t reading right. It’s weird…. @Airborne 82nd is right as well, that is a way for u to 100% know your water quality.

    My moneywort is turning to “mush” if you will and idk why. My nitrates sit at 10 ppm constantly and ph is kinda on the harder side of things with 7.6. I put in AC easy tabs + a weekly dose of fertilizer from AC as well. Very odd. Here are some pics, any help will be great! Thanks This last picture is the part that broke off of the plant and I left it as a floater, the roots are like basically rotting and I have no clue why 😐

    Yeah kinda is confusing for sure, i just use a 5g bucket, dechloranite my water in it, then add it back into jugs by using a a funnel. I am a little bit confused on your Q tho to @Airborne 82nd. I apoligize if i caused some confusion. Like @TOtrees said, i am confused as well lol.

    4 to 6 weeks useally @Gideyon. I would buy some all in one ferts from AC.

    Wow, you could feed him some small insects, algae, shrimp, and bloodworms, and they also can be taught to eat flakes or pellets. That’s what I have read. @JS Fish, interesting he doesn’t like the blood worms 🤔.

    Welcome to the forum! Cool fish there! Hope you can share some pics of your tank soon!!!!
  12. Whitecloud09
    Wierd, i would add more decor and hiding places for them and tall plants so they can dodge each other @Mikon77. So odd......
  13. Whitecloud09
    Not sure about that but i can say, welcome to the forum!!!! Somebody will chime in here and answer prob tho @Foss0191! There is a chance of snails eating eggs i have read, but idk if they will.
  14. Whitecloud09
    @Mikon77, that can be a sign of overcrowding or even they are all males and they are super aggressive. What other fish are in the tank? Or are they the only ones?
  15. Whitecloud09
    It has been from .50 to .25 ppm, idk why. I continue doing water changes when I see it, about to test again @Tony s. So odd….
  16. Whitecloud09
    Yep, looks like your done. One more dose of ammonia, after that if it goes to 0 within 24 hours, I would do a water change and do a 30-50% water change, any size of a water change is fine, and then I wait a couple of days then go and get fish, and remember, make sure you check ammonia still after adding fish for a couple of days, then test every week @Mon.
  17. Whitecloud09
    I dose it for the whole amount of the tank, which is 10 gallons, but you can do that too if you want. Like @AllFishNoBrakes said, you can dose it up to 5x. And most water conditioners can not be overdosed easily as well @Airborne 82nd.
  18. Whitecloud09
    Same, can’t wait @johnnyxxl, good luck!!
  19. Whitecloud09
    Nice. What are you planning to get @johnnyxxl? If I may ask.
  20. Whitecloud09
    Yes it does, sorry for bad pics, so is it diatoms @Mmiller2001?
  21. Whitecloud09
    Seachem prime is a decholranater for water, detoxifys ammonia and nitrite. I would get that.
  22. Whitecloud09
    Got a Q for you @Mmiller2001, what is this algae on my plants? Why and how do I stop it? My light is on with a timer from 10 AM to 6:30 ish PM. Since the time change I have not changed the schedule for the lights. Thanks and any questions I will try to answer.
  23. Whitecloud09
    Yes, agreed, artificial plants can be dangerous and can hurt the fish, and the tank mates might be an issue if they are aggressive to this fish. Fungal or bacterial, but I am going with the fungal like @Max W. mentioned. I see a Mickey Mouse platy in the picture but what else if I may ask @Pleasetrythefish?
  24. Whitecloud09
    Before anything, get that nitrite out of the tank, any at all can cause quick diseases to a fish, a 30-50% water change with seachem prime added after. Also any way to test ammonia in the tank? Very important to test that. @Pleasetrythefish Yep, I say under .25 even but definitely should be the nitrites
