  1. Happy Sunday there guys, I've been thinking about getting decapsulated BBS to feed to my tanks - as a change to continuously feeding live ones all the time. Has anyone tried it yet? Did it work out well? BR

    Sick Neon Tetra

    Thanks for both answers! Well, I don't know the active ingredient as well, I went with pictures to the shop where I usually buy everything I need. They advised me to use that product. It's mostly in Thai. Until now all the meds worked, I had an Ich outbreak beginning of the year and solved it really easy. The one from the picture turns the water completely green. Unfortunately I don't have access to have microscope. I don't think it was the puffer, I have lots of plants and cover and never saw even an attempted nip. All the other fish are fine as well. I will keep an eye on that, thanks 🙂 It could be caused by waterconditions. Apart from adding the pygmis, the only change to the tank was that I started to hatch and feed baby brine shrimp. Maybe I didn't rinse them properly? The parameters of the tank are all in the post above. Thanks for the answers, its much appreciated!

    Sick Neon Tetra

    Thanks a lot for the help, I wasnt able to find maracyn and started treatment with another product.
  4. Hi everyone, I have a community tank with 10 neon tetras. I noticed one of them has half of the tailfin covered in white with a part seeming to miss. I caught him and tried to take a good picture. I noticed another one with a tiny white part at it's side and a bloated belly and caught it as well, I placed both in another empty tank. I watched a few videos and just ordered General cure online. Any idea what it might be? If so, any kind of advice would be much appreciated! It's the first time they have any issue, the tank has amano and neoc. shrimp, Kuhli and Hillstream loaches, Otos, a pea puffer, danios. I added 6 pigmy corys on the weekend and think it might be the reason? Only thing I changed recently as well is feeding baby brine shrimp once a week. Temperature is always around 84, the tank has a lot of plants. I use CO2 as well. Ammonia at 0, N03 ~ 15, N02 at 0, GH between 6-8, KH at 3, PH ~6.5.
  5. Thanks a lot! I don't have a quarantine tank, so I will have to go with monitoring and treat If I see it gets more, I guess. Thanks for the help! I will try to set up a quarantine tank for the future soon.
  6. Hi there, Hope everyones having a great day. I hope you can help me out. One of 4 hillstream loaches in my 45 gallon has "white stuff" at one eye. I saw it just now, all the other fish in the community tank are fine. It looks like a fungus to me on first sight, but I am literally just guessing. Didn't find anything with a quick online research. Anyone else with an idea what it could be - and what I could do? Thanks a lot in advance! Ammonia at 0, N03 ~ 15, N02 at 0, GH between 6-8, KH at 3, PH ~6.5.
  7. Wow, thanks a lot for the welcome, this already helps me out a lot! I ordered the tank a while ago and got it just today, but I plan a heavily planted tank with co2. I've been saving a lot and bought as per recommendations from the shop, which was not that easy (I'm living in Thailand). I have a canister filter from Atman which they also use for bigger tanks here, so I think/hope the filtration should be fine. Until now I only used hob filters for my other tanks. I wasnt sure if adding more fish might be too much, but neon tetras were on the list. 🙂 Thanks a bunch!
  8. Hi, I own 3 smaller 5 gallon tanks since 6 months and bought a fourth one just now - a 45 Gallon. I binge watched a ton of informative vids in the last couple of months, but I'd like to have an opionion from you guys with way more experience regarding my stocking ideas. 1 Betta 3 Kuhli loaches 2 Hillstream loaches 6 Corys 8 Celestial Pearl danio ~30 Shrimp A Feedback would be much appreciated (too many? Other problems?) Greetings, Tim
