  1. Bender is perfect and beautiful! I hope he perks up for you. There has to be some other treat he might like to have? I don't have a puffer myself so grain of salt here but what about freeze dried krill? Or maybe you'll have to go as far as getting some earthworms and cutting pieces for him? Feed via tweezers? Also I hear a lot of people try frozen seafood from the supermarket. I can say I have experience with overgrown teeth from keeping rodents and lagomorphs. Getting them somthing soft until their teeth can be filed or fixed helps a lot.
  2. What is that plant that looks like small lily pads in the back left , top tank?
  3. They look really nice! I always enjoy seeing your planted tanks they're beautiful!
  4. Hi Texas! Welcome to the forum!
  5. This is a great video by Aquarium Co-op if you haven't seen it, will go over a variety of possible common illnesses
  6. @Lexibee3 I'm sorry to hear about your betta. How old is he? Can you post any pics, do you see any other visible signs of illness?
  7. It has been my experience that they don't really mess with it much when it's totally out of control or maybe since it was I couldn't tell if there was progress, I had to manually remove it then. I had that issue for a little bit in my 20 gallon tall- no longer thankfully I have it in balance. I have 2 nerites in that tank that help me as well. Both are males apparently because no eggs have been left behind. The one in this 3 gallon is a female but I actually don't mind the eggs, they're not that hard to remove from glass and eggs on the decor doesn't bother me. So there is that to consider since it's not like they sex them at the LFS. The hair algae I had growing in the 3 was less than a quarter of an inch, she had it mowed down in less than a couple of hours. I think if you add them soon enough they can keep it from getting out of control.
  8. I totally get it, I would like my betta to have more space, originally my 3 gallon was for quarantine but I have other things for that now. It's a nice little cube and actually performs really well for me- but you're right a space that small gets cramped rather easy. The light it came with is actually pretty good for a kit and tiny LEDs. I've had a little hair algae but I added a nerite this last week and it's pretty much gone (was on the pagoda roof).
  9. What a very nice set up you have! Can't wait to see your nano tanks! 🙂
  10. They look really nice! I bet they will appreciate it. I have mine in a 3 gallon for now- weirdly enough as much as people say smaller tanks are harder to maintain and stabilize that tank has been running for 8 months with super stable water tests and the temperature is perfect for my Betta without at heater so I hesitate to move her to a bigger tank.
  11. What is included in the tank besides the snails?
  12. @Fish Folk see, I was right. 🙂 It's how I imagine your tanks.
  13. ....could be a temperature change too. I can't imagine @Fish Folk has too many parameter issues.
  14. Oh whoa! Did they move to the top after the water change? Is there something not to their liking?
  15. I feel like some topics are posted just so they can tell others what they believe works doesn't actually work (meaning the person posting already has an opinion they won't be swayed from). I'm not really sure that's productive conversation.
  16. On the left June 30th, on the right June 27th. Gosh they grow fast, and even changing color- difference in antenae is very apparent.
  17. Awww. I guess I didn't realize they were so small. What a cool fish!
  18. They're very pretty!! 😍 I like that they're lurking, lol.
  19. ....almost there @Frank, hang in there!
  20. Thanks. I actually GOT Otos because I didn't WANT to breed anything. So, careful what you wish for, Nature has other ideas!!
  21. Can't speak to the eggs but you can likely sell or trade them back to your fish store if you keep getting new ones! How cool is that!? I'm waiting for my baby Otocinclus to grow up so I can trade them for a Hillstream Loach myself!
