Do you have any algae eaters in the tank? I find that my shrimp and snails clean the plants of algae very well. My Malaysian trumpet snails do a good job. You can also get a nerite snail. Or, you can lightly scrub the plants with a toothbrush to get rid of the algae.
Hi all! So I just wanted to share Tinty, our betta's, journey.
October 8: She got stuck in a hideout. I did not have much hope for her (Picture 1).
October 9: She was laying on the ground and did not have much energy.
October 10: She developed fungus and I moved her to a medicated tank.
October 12: Developed this weird thing on her back (Picture 2 and 3).
October 15: Fungus gone.
October 12-16: Starting to eat and get her personality back.
October 16: The raised thing on her back fell off.
October 17-now: Her wound is getting smaller and she is re-growing her fins. π
Hi, I just joined. I am a fish lover, with several different kinds of fish, 3 tanks, 2 QT/hospital tanks, and a pond outside. I have learned a lot about fish but I am still learning every day! I am already loving this forum! FishPlanet
I can't get a pic right now but she is starting to pinecone. I have snails and shrimp in all of my tanks so I don't really have another extra tank for her. She is in a tank with a few shrimp and bladder snails right now and the only other tank I have without anything in it is occupied by a betta that got stuck in a hideout.
And I just did a water change today in her tank so the water parameters are pretty low.
Chlorine: 0
Ammonia: 0
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate: 1 or so
Ph: 7.6-8.4 (I don't do anything to try to lower the Ph)
Hardness: 300
Alkalinity: 180
Hi all, I'm new here. My guppy, Chamomile, has what I believe to be early stages of dropsy. I was wondering if there is anything I can do for her so she can have a chance. π I love her. TIA
