  1. Not sure, he/she is obviously smaller and.. dumpy-her?(Compact?) Than the other ones the same age. I do see a bit of a curve backtail at times but I'm not sure if its just me or what. Either way it does not seem to have impacted it negatively so...? If I can catch a good picture of it I will post it here. Its just been a day so we will have to see but from what I could see this morning everything looked well.
  2. Oh....Well nevermind all that. It seems he got out of the breederbox and is just chilling with his brethren now. Alrighty then. I wanted to make sure he was well feed before this but hey.
  3. Will try to move him slowly via a breeding box first. Make sure he;s adjusted with the water, feed him a little ect. By the way, here are some pics of him, the waters a bit dirty but that was because I just moved him from the shrimp tank and trying to catch him made a LOT of movement.
  4. What Guppysnail said. They need a partner. Must just be a "late birth".
  5. Alright, just wanted some second opinion since I'm afraid of losing the little guys.
  6. Alright I will put thee male in the 7 Gal. Thank you all for the help.
  7. About a year-ish ago I had some of my Cory's lay eggs and to keep them safe I decided to have one grow up in my Shrimp tank. But now I'm just wondering if after a year if I should move him back since I'm afraid I might be stunting its growth. It had some strange white blotches on his "skin" but after a year and no side effects I'm assuming he must have just been a hybrid of the albino and bronze cory. But yeah, what do you guys think? Do you think it would be a good move to switch him from a 10 gallon to a 20? He would be with his family and more of his kind. I'm just afraid the change might kill him after so long in the shrimp 10 Gal. Will try to find a better photo of him if you guys need it since you can't really see all that much of him here.
  8. Ok, that's good to know, wanted to not have to remake another aquarium but if its better this way then I guess I will have no choice. By the way who would be better in the 20 Gallon? The male or female? I think Males have territories so I think it would be better to keep him in the big one but what do you guys think?
  9. They are Blue cherry shrimps. Mmm so should I set up a another new aquarium for one of the m the,? The Female looks young, small and did not develop her colors yet. Don't know if that can help with something.
  10. Hello, so a few weeks ago I bought a female Betta for my 20 gallon, but then a week after my mother wanted to get me a surprise and she got me a really beautiful Male Betta. Obviously I could not refuse such a nice gift from my mother, but the problem now is, can I put them in the same tank with little drawbacks? I have a 10 Gallon shrimp Tank that I could put one in if it is ever a problem, the only thing is I've heard that you can have a better live happily in a shrimp but one day just develop a taste for said shrimp and end up eating them all... Give me a bit and I will get you some pictures of both tanks and Betta's if you guys want to see them.
  11. Those are blader snail, totally armless. Though if they are comfortable they might end up spawning babies. Its your call if you want to keep it. If you have another aquarium i would suggest putting it in that one if you want to keep your betta tank ""pretty"".
  12. Should i try some meds on him? I have a small 5 gallon that ive been medicating so that my guppy frys and new corys are all healthy. Should i try putting him in with them? Would that help the healing process?
  13. Sorry for the late reply, it seems like a white lump. it looks to be part of its ""skin"". Will try to get better pics later. Though i'm wondering. Can the spawn of a albino strain bronze cory and normal bronze cory make fry with white patches? I have a albino cory in my tank, maybe it was a bronze and it mated with my normal male?
  14. I found this on my cory fry and i'm wondering what it could be and if i need to be worried. Its with my blue cherry shrimps if that can help pH : 7.6 normal ph and High range PH 7.8 to 8.0 Nitrates: 0 ppm Nitrite: 0 ppm Ammonia: 0 ppm to 0.25 at most Water Temperature is 24 C : 74 F
  15. Sad news, the original shrimp tank cory (not the new one i put in) died yesterday. My dad said that the shrimps were eating it alive. But that cant be right. Shrimps only eat dead and dying fish correct? If anyone as an idea as to why this happen i would be really greatful. Was the water hardness too high? Was i not feeding it enough? Did i just get a case of bad luck and it got sick?
  16. Hey congrats, like the gay said above its always fun seeing your fish breed nomatter how ""easy"" it is. Its shows that you are doing a good job.
  17. Was thinking of putting him in my shrimp tank.I already have one that got in that tank by accident and it seems to be ok. I'm only afraid the two might eat up all the cool bio diversity i got in that tank. Question can fry cage stunt the growth of a fish? think its been a couple of weeks since it hatch in that thing. Is that bad?
  18. Are they going to be alright with seaching for food? Also i got a angel fish at what i think is full adult size, how big does a cory need to be to not be eaten by him? 1 cm, 2?
  19. These look great, I dont think i've ever seen a guppy like that.
  20. Anyone know how long i should keep my cory fry in a fry cage? How big should they be before i let it go in my tank?
  21. oh yeah that might work. By the way does anyone know if snails need to be temperature regulated?
  22. You got any tips on how to attrack snails to one spot? I want to move them but most are still too small and i'm afraid i might kill some.
  23. So i was keeping one blader snail in my 10 G shrimp tank but now its started to reproduce. Usually i dont have a problem with them but im afraid both might compete for food and calcium. what should i do? Also just a side question but anyone know a good snail or shrimp mate that can deal with green spot algae?
  24. Yea usually but i remember someone saying epton salt or something name like that could be used too.
