  1. Are there any Pleco‘s that will stay small that can go in a 20 gallon?
  2. What you see in the picture is a temple plant and the roots are from a pothos growing out of the tank😁
  3. How do you guys buffer Seachems acid buffer and alkaline buffer together? I don’t understand their way of doing it.
  4. Just wondering if pothos can be fully submerged and what causes plants to melt and rot including the roots?
  5. Today I just did a water change and gravel vac for the most part I gravel vacuum when I do water changes so I’ll make sure I stay on top of it and the betta only goes after that one guy and nobody else hmm weird I read something about how fish will target a sick and weaker fish in this case he is the only one who is sick and weak maybe that has something to do with it?
  6. Lately I have been feeding shrimp pellets and algae wafers and it is only the one with completely missing barbels one started to loose his right side but I think I fixed that in the hospital tank I don’t have substrate in my hospital but I moved the one with no barbels back in the main tank and at least he is active and swimming with the others now my main tank has sand.
  7. My parameters are PH: 7.4-7.6 GH: 8.96 KH: 2.8 ammonia:0 nitrite:0 nitrate: 40-80 I'm doing a water change today
  8. So I have been going through so much Trying to figure out what is wrong with my fish and so much frustration and I have never dealt with sick fish before because I am new and my sick Cory Dora which a while ago I noticed he wasn’t eating hade missing barbels and was acting lethargic I put him in a hospital tank with the other 2 as a preventative and after a while I noticed he was doing a lot better and eating and stuff so I put all three of them back in the main tank and I noticed that the betta was still picking at him instead of giving it time I impulsively decided he wasn’t ready for the main tank and put him back in the hospital and I am already medicating a platy that has a bacteria lesion looking thing on his side and all I noticed doing this just seemed to make it worse and it seemed his healing went back to square one I’ve been doing medicating and stuff for a week now and haven’t noticed improvement so I decided to put him back in the main tank so I guess I will see how he does but I don’t really know what to do anymore and I am still medicating the main tank for parasites so yea I don’t really know what to do so far this hobby has just brought me stress and anxiety and really nothing else
  9. Any suggestions for external parasite treatment?
  10. Any advice how to cure sick fish one of my platies has some sort of bacterial lesion on his side and my Cory Dora which I thought he was ready to go back into the main tank still seems to want to scratch and my beta only targets him sigh* I don’t understand so I am treating these guys in a hospital and I am retreating my main tank
  11. What are your guises thoughts on bacterial infections growing immunity’s to medication? Should that be something I should worry about?
  12. Right now I am quarantining what do you think about 1 tablespoon per 2 gallons?
  13. Are golden wonder killifish salt tolerant???
  14. How many tablespoons per gallon of salt to treat sick platy in 10 gallon?
  15. So I had to emergency treat my Cory Doras and I started an emergency hospital tank and since of course it isn’t cycled (which I’m making sure all parameters are in check) I’m getting a bunch of bacterial bloom and very milky water and the meds are probably contributing to this milk water too so I just wanted to know if this murky water is harmful or not because I’m making sure the water parameters are in check and running a hang on back that came with the 10 gallon and I’ve been treating for like 2 weeks now and they are getting better so...🤷‍♂️
