[Moving an Anubias]

Thanks... 

 

If you don't mind me picking your brain... Lower in the photo.. behind the roots and on the lower section of wood.. there is another anubias that was put there at the same time as the HUGE one on top.  The lower one has never done a thing.  It doesn't grow... doesn't extend.. nothing.. Do you think it's a light thing??  Like it's too low or not enough light, therefore stumping it's growth?  I could move them both if need be.  Move the huge one as far right as possible and let it continue to grow to the left .. covering the upper section.  Or move the lower one up to the right side and higher so it would get more light>?

 

thoughts?

It also seems that is where all of the algae in the tank grows.  I have a Siamese algae eater in there... and there were a couple of snails.  However, the snails have passed into snail heaven.. and the Siamese algae eater is somewhere between 3.5 - 4" long ... he doesn't seem interested in that algae.  

 

Any thoughts on what to put in the tank to help clean the plants leaves of algae??

I left the light off for 3 days and my anubias grew more leaves. If that is helpful 

[Water change device?]

I have been using a cheap siphon and a 5 gallon bucket to fill up and drain my tanks for about 3 years and need a change. I have seen the cool thing md fiahtanks has and was wondering if anyone else has made something like that. I have a canister filter that isnt in use if that could be useful.

Thanks!

Amano shrimp...

[Getting closer]

That cholla wood will be amazing for your shrimp!

[Which fish should I get]

If you could i would get a weather loach they are so elegant and beautiful when they swim and arent aggressive.

[dither fish for 29 gallon]

I have 8 giant danios in a 55 right now and would not recommend it to anyone they are mean.

[Substrate opinions?]

I do a layer if fluval stratum then some gravel and finally a top layer of inert sand. The stratum gives the plants nutrients, the gravel holds them in place and gives the benificial bacteria a place to live and grow. The sand is for looks. Hope that helps!

[How to get Clear Water]

I would add some live stem plants like pearl weed or elodia to pick up excess nutrients.

[What was your first tank and your newest tank?]

What was your first tank, plant (etc.) compared to your newest scape?

I really need inspiration for my 75g...

Thanks so much!

My first tank was a 20 gallon with a tetra filter an air pump and a weird marble substrate. its inhbitant was an electric blue crayfish.(i moved him to a 55.) My newest tank is a 5 gallon shrimp tank with s repens and floaters!

Thanks @Jennifer V, I do have plants. Lots of betta safe fake plants to use a filler too. Appreciate any and all tips on keeping pest snails. You have no idea how careful I've been to keep them out of my house... until now 🙂

I asked my daughter if she wanted to try something like that @Mydonkeyfish. She's creeped out by my cherry shrimp so that was a fast pass. It came down to a puffer or an african dwarf frog. I'm liking her choice but I'm sure the frog would've been great too.

Inverts are my favorite!

My dwarf crayfish also eat bladder snails!

[20g apisto breeding tank?]

This is going to be my first time trying to breed fish! I have had guppies breed in a 55 gallon and i bought a dwarf crayfish not knowing it would be berried the next day. What plants do you recommend and do they like a lot or a little bit of flow?

[20g apisto breeding tank?]

I am working on my 75 gallon tetra tank and have an extra 20 gallon laying around. I love apistogramma cacatoides but have never had them before. How would i go about setting up a breeding tank for them?

 

Thanks so much!

[What kind of moss is this]
