  1. Ok. I would recommend a quick forum search on the nitrogen cycle. Or someone that has the link handy can send it to you. Unless you put one of your filters from another tank you don't have a cycled aquarium.
  2. What do you have in your tank? You may not need to worry about the heat.
  3. What are your parameters and stocking on that 29? If it's new and not cycled for your stock level you could be changing out your bacterial bloom you need. And with any ammonia in your tap water you're going to want to do few water changes as possible.
  4. That tall one on the right looks like my Argentine sword I got from a Petco.
  5. I let them go crazy, keeps the fish poop cleaned off of everything. How does that geo like living with discus?
  6. I use bdbs on my 100 gal planted tank. With my bioload I don't use liquid fert but have inserted 20 plus root tabs. My giant amazon sword is still showing deficiency so still adding tabs. Thinking I may try dosing macros soon.
  7. Looks like I'll be pulling Otos out. I'm glad noone thinks fungus or bacterial.
  8. Had to break out the API kit, didn't have time last night. 0 ammonia, and I found that my CO2 is bringing my pH down to 7.6 during the day. I just found a dead oto that looks like he had been chewed on too. So I think you are right HH Morant they're abrasions. I have the others in my quarantine tank but I've had trouble treating catfish in the past. They are sensitive to some meds. Does anyone have experience with a blue eye lemon pleco being super aggressive? That's the other catfish I left off the list and the only thing that I have that I would think is capable of doing this.
  9. 100 gal discus community tank. 5 small discus, tetras, bumblebee cats, salt n pepper Cory's, giant oto, and regular Otos. One of the oto is missing its tail, the attached pic shows another oto with something I need help identifying. 40 nitrate 0 nitrite 8 pH 85 degrees CO2 injection 2 bps Airstone How much salt can I put in a 100 gal planted tank? I have the 2 Otos in my 10 gal quarantine with ERYTHROMYCIN now.
  10. So my 2 year old poured some bubble solution in my 25 gal patio pond. Dosed 10 mil of prime and water changing till there's no more bubbles tonight. I'll update if there's any losses. All endlers. Trying to use nutgrass as a bog filter and working so far. I have to dose easy green to get nitrates to even register. Crazy hard water so I use dehumidifier water for topoffs.
  11. Can you post a full tank shot? What's your water parameters? What was your fertilizer schedule? Are your lights on a timer? Crypts will melt when put in new water. Are you getting new leaves?
