Hey every one, I have just set up my 20 gal long for some Panther crabs. There is some chicken bone stone and some sand for them but I want to make this tank look better. I know that they will eat plants so I wanted to put i water lettuce in. But what can I do to make this tank look less bare?

I don’t have any other stands for the light and it does not dim

Yeah, the light I had on this tank was finnex clip on light and it was way too low. So I put on a twin star led light to try and help and so the algae has risen lately. But would floating plants and algae eaters help too.

Ok! Thanks for the tip!

Will I need to dig up the plants to put in the seltzer water?

I have this algae in my new 5 gallon tank that is about 1 month old almost 2 and is cycling. I can’t seem to identify it but it grows fast and I need to get rid of it. Any one know what type of ages it is? how can I remove it?

The tank is about 1 month old and cycling and I added some new pearl weed about 3 weeks ago to it. Other wise there is not much mulm in the substrate.

For flow all I’m during is a sponge filter and I’m doing 2 weekly water changes and the tank is new.

Not too long ago the Lights to my tank came on and I noticed small little white worms moving on the glass. I’ve never had this problem or have ever seen them in my tank. This tank is still growing out with plants so there is no fish or shrimp in it yet. Can they be harmful to plants or fish? What can I do to get rid of them as fast as possible?

Thinking on getting a figure 8 puffer and have done a lot of research on them. Any one have personal experience with these fish? Could I keep 2 figure puffers with some bumblebee goby‘s in a 29 gallon tank? Thanks

The sponge filter is being run off by a separate air pump. I live in Kansas so probably August through early September.

Wow, very nice betta you got!

Wow love your tanks and pond. I’ve got a tiny pond of my own but would love to have a pond that bug some time!

I found it on Amazon for $10. here: https://www.amazon.com/HOMMAND-Fountain-Battery-Cycling-Decoration/dp/B08TMCD7HG/ref=mp_s_a_1_14_sspa?crid=33QOXKPC77EPR&keywords=solar+power+pond+pump&qid=1655860282&sprefix=solar+power+p%2Caps%2C121&sr=8-14-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUExUEkxVU4zV0ZLNDBSJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwMDE5NzIwRUhBSTNTSThOUEc0JmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTA0MDgzNjUyOVpCNkhOQ0VIUTJOJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfcGhvbmVfc2VhcmNoX210ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=

Red! These are dwarf red coral platys. That I have had for about a year and been breeding them like crazy

Started this small 12 Gal pond in may and it’s doing great! Lots of platys and lots of new fry. Also with the fun solar powered pump with a sponge filter. The water hyacinth in there has grow a lot and is making more. Hope it flowers.

I will, thanks.

The light is a twin star B- line and it is on for 7 hours.

I have had this 3 gallon shrimp breeding tank for about six months now. And I’ve been doing regular weekly water changes about 30%. The tank has so much debris in the substrate. Is that a bad thing? How can I clean it up and make it look nicer? Also I have a continuous blue green algae. I have scrubbed it off plants, rocks and glass And it keeps coming back. How can I get rid of it?

Awesome, I will have to look into the figure 8 puffers.

Thanks for the fish recommendations. And I will have to watch that video. Would a green spotted puffer work in a 29?

Great, thanks for the tip. I will look into it.

Thanks, I have been watching his videos!

Very cool, thanks I was really interested in a green spotted puffer!
