I do a 50% water water change once a week. I've been thinking about adding some distilled water to see if it would work.
If its not cost prohibitive, it might be worth a try. It worked for our 5 gallon pretty well.

Not sure how often you are doing water changes, but in smaller tanks you could try distilled water to reduce hardness.

Definitely Fred. I love all our aquababies, but Fredthulu is a sight to behold.

One guy I do remember from my youth was a little freshwater flounder. I want to say it was about 2 - 2.5 inches long. I'm not even sure if those are around these days at all.

I wish I could remember the hodge podge of stuff I had in my 10 gallon tank as a kid, needless to say it was a "oooh one of those and one of those and one of those" aquariums.
Getting back into the hobby our Betta has been our gateway drug to more tanks.-

Another one you can do is the Dwarf Aquarium Lily. It’s a bulb and you can place it on the surface of the substrate and let it do it’s thing. That’s what I did here in my new planted tank. You can see it on the front right hand side.
All of the plants that are green are glued into place on rocks and the spider wood. The only stem plants are the red ones lol
Here is a link to the journal of setting up this tank…
Great tank! We have a dwarf lily that has been in about a week, it's showing nice growth so far!

We don't have the full kit, as we are just starting in the hobby. We rely on the coop strips
And I've tested with tetra strips.

We've also tried with Co-Op Strips and Tetra Strips and they are matching up on all parameters.

We've had this same experience (or similar) with a couple of tanks now. Now we do keep smaller tanks, but even a 50% water change tends to barely make a difference in the best cases.

If I'm not mistaken (and I hope I'm not because I'm ordering some for this purpose) Nerite Snails are great at eating hair algae. They are also really pretty. 🙂

Keeping this updated. We planted 2 Amazon Swords, and the CPDs and Shrimp seem to approve.
Dealing with a bit of a nitrite spike with Prime and more quick start. We also added more floaters temporarily to help pull some of the nitrites/nitrates.
The debris on the ground is what's left of an algae wafer, something I will probably avoid using in the future!-

OH... update to the update. Been thinking about names... If it's hopefully going to be a trio, I was thinking maybe naming them after a famous love triangle from history or literary fiction.
Lysander, Hermia, and Helena from "A Midsummer Night's Dream" is the first that springs to mind, but I'd love to hear other ideas.-

Just a little over a week's growth. Super pleased with this beauty.
