[Can honey gouramis live alone?]

Thanks guys. I agree, with a shy fish having more fish of it's own kind will help it feel more comfortable. I have another question though. (Sorry) A 20 gal tank would be the ideal for a trio and for 4 a 29 gal, right? 

I would still do a trio in a 29

[My buce (bucephalandra) has been melting like CRAZY! What's going on?!]

I would think that this melt is pretty natural since the seller has different parameters than you... Just like the dwarf sag you have, I would give it some time an it will rebound.

Heyo guys! I was wondering, can a honey gourami live alone? Just 1, by itself? Thanks in advance!

Personally, I would go with no since they tend to be a fish that is more shy. A trio (1m, 2f) would most likely work well.

[HELP! My nerite snail has been out of water- will he survive?!]

As @Pakal said, nerites can survive up to a month out of water (in the wild, they live in intertidal zones so they are sometimes stuck out of water). I would assume that he is ok.

[What did you get done today?]

I was pretty lazy today... Only got done with a water change on my 29g.

[Do you dose more fertilizer as plants grow?]

Hey guys! So, I saw on one of aquarium co-op's blog posts by @Irene It said "Following the recommended fertilizer dosing instructions, but then four months later when the plants have grown to triple their original size, you’re still dosing the same amount. Just as you automatically feed more food if you add more fish to an aquarium or if they grow bigger over time, you need to feed your plants more as they get taller or propagate."

 

Is this true? Do you have to constanly up your fertilizer dosage? Am I doing it wrong? I have been dosing the same amount the whole time......

I don't think I am the best person to comment on this since I don't use ferts (I have dirted tanks), but I would aim for 20 ppm nitrates, but honestly, I find that most plants (ex: S. Repens, Pearlweed, Crypt Parva) grow fine in my tanks with out ferts.

Dark mode has been buggy. I'm asking the developers to create a theme that is just dark mode so people can select it. For now I have uninstalled the dark mode button as it was causing errors.

Do you know when dark mode will be back?

[S Repens Cut down - will it come back?]

Had a full carpet, and let it grow for too long. Finally cut it all the way back / down. Anyone have experience doing this? Think it will grow back - or should I remove all roots, etc?

I think it will grow back. Just give it some time.

Hi all!

I am new to this forum, but not to fish forums in general. You may know we from over at the Fishlore forum, but I decided to also join here to see what it was like. Thanks!
