  1. I placed an order on Aquatic Arts for two juvenile bristlenose plecos and I'm going to be picking them up instead of having them shipped since I'm fairly local to them and will be passing through there next week. My issue is that I wont be returning home until 48 hours after the pickup time. So what should I do to ensure they stay alive? Just leave them in the bags and maybe kinda package them as if they where going to be shipped or take a bucket and a battery operated bubbler to transfer them into along with maybe some seachem safe in case I need to add any more water. Any thoughts on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
  2. Yes, I'm pretty sure that's what's going on with mine as well. Like I said, after the water change today I didnt see any spots on them. Then an hour or so later I went over looked again and one of them close to the front glass had a spot. I tapped the glass to see what happened and then the spot was gone like he shook it off when fleeing. I dont believe ich would suddenly appear within an hour and then fall off shortly after.
  3. I have a group of 5 peppered corydoras in my 10 gallon QT tank for 10 days now. Ran the med trio last week. Yesterday I seen what appeared to possibly be ich on one of them so I immediately did a water change and added ich x. Today when I woke up, all five looked fine with no white spots on any of them so I decided to feed them before doing a water change and redosing the ich x. Shortly after feeding Hikari sinking wafers I looked them all over again to find one of them has two or three spots like before, not the same cory that had them initially, I can tell by their size. So my question is with them eating the way they do and stiring small particles of food up into the water column could that be what it is sticking to them? I'm thinking it is because after the water change I just did they are all clear of spots again. Strange
  4. Picked up three pieces of driftwood at a mom and pop shop today. Can anyone identify? Owner wasn't in and employee said it's a wood from the United States but couldn't remember what it was.
  5. Picked up five of these corydoras at pet supplies plus labeled mixed corydoras. Anyone ID exactly what they are? In my research I came up with Paleatus but I'm no expert. Lol
  6. Lol. Do they really make a mess with the wood eating?
  7. Not really besides I was thinking about getting another piece and wanted them to be the same.
  8. Can anyone identify this type of wood? I bought it a long time ago and now have a clown pleco and reason to use it.
  9. I bought a clown pleco yesterday with only doing limited research, not a mistake I usually make, so here I am. Lol. I picked up 4 salt and pepper corydoras on Friday and then went back to get more on Saturday. They had one left so I got it and a clown pleco. All of these are in my QT tank and all day yesterday the clown pleco just hid under my sponge filter which I know they are hiders. But last night after the lights had been off for awhile I went over with a light and looked in. The clown pleco was out and very active while the corydoras where just laying around on the bottom. So my question, is this gonna be an issue with him being so active at night and disturbing the corys? Also, could the clown get very aggressive about territory on the bottom of the tank?
  10. I run 1 tablespoon per 5 gallons in my mollies/platies/variatus tank. Would a small group of corydoras be ok with that low of a salt level?
  11. Yeah. My only issue with that is my quarantine tank is only a 10g. And my local fish store has them at probably around 3 inch size and it seems like they only get around 3 or 4 at a time.
  12. I have a 125g tank with 50 mollies/platies/variatus, one bristlenose pleco and three mystery snails. After seeing electric blue acaras at the pet store today I've been researching if I can add maybe 5-7 of these over time to my tank. Haven't really seen a list mixing these fish but I did come across a video on YouTube where someone has electric blue acaras with mollies and platies. I believe the video was by multi tank addiction. Thoughts??
  13. It's a 125g with two fx4s that's been running for over 4 years. I use seachem safe.
  14. Has anyone else experienced cloudy water after using ich x? I started treatment on Friday for ich using ich x. I had already done a water change on Thursday and noticed the ich on Friday so I immediately turned the heat up a couple degrees from 78 to 80 and added ich x. Saturday I did the 30% wc and redosed the ich x. Today I did the 30% wc about 6 hours ago and I'm noticing the water is looking kinda cloudy/milky. Which is very out of the ordinary for this tank which is normally crystal clear. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Also I just tested Ammonia and Nitrite. Both 0
