Hi @Guppysnail here we go with more pictures.
there is Java moss for sure (i hate Java moss as it’s growing in the middle and over my Grass) but do you think the algae is hair grass?
@JoeQ do you think it’s BBA? I have the feeling that BBA is more like Micro bushes now?
-
Do you guys think it’s is hair algae ? Do you prefer I take a better picture so you can help me to find out? Not sure if this pic is good enough
thank you so so so much

Hi Everyone,
My tank is very mature (3 or 4 years). Injected CO2 from 5:30 am to 1:15 pm. Lights on from 8:30 to 2:15 pm.
Gh and Kh around 4 dGh. pH goes from 7 to 5.3 or something …
Dry fertilization.
My Hairgrass was amazing (pic 1) but since some time, I have seeing Java moss popping up around the tank.
I spent 2 weeks out of the city and now I have this thing in the middle of the grass.
do you think this is algae or Java moss ?
Thank you

Hi @Tony s @macdaddy36 @Whitecloud09 you guys are amazing. Unfortunately, it died. I believe he had some disease - I don't think the issue was food but we will never know !
Thank you so much for trying to help ...

Hi @macdaddy36
Still the same … no eating. I tried to increase the temperature a little bit, cover all sides of the hospital and kept the light off. A lot of Java moss there. I hope it starts to eat tomorrow.
-
Hi @macdaddy36I am not sure … I have been turning off the lights before feeding them and I am not totally sure. Now that he is in the hospital alone, I will be able to see and will let you know. Yesterday he didn’t but as this was his first day there, probably stress.
-
I might be moving this poor guy to the hospital tank, keep lights off, controlled temperature and etc and try to feed him better but sometimes, they get so stressed for being alone that they eat less.
i am just wondering if this is some disease and not food quantity …

Hi @Whitecloud09 I feed them one time per day and when the lights turn off as I have seeing they don’t come to eat when the light is on. One time per week with bloodworms and the other days with tetra flocks. I have 7 of them and only one seems sick.

Hi everyone,
I am looking for help with the glass fish you see in the left. The one in the right is healthy but the one in the left is becoming thinner and thinner.
I have in total 7 of them.
- pH about 6 … it goes from 7 to 5.6 due to the injected Co2
- Nitrates almost 0
- Hardness GH and KH about 4.5 dHk (I keep both at this level every time I do TPAs and etc)
- Nitrite almost 0
- Ammonia zero
- Water Temperature I keep at 74oF
TPA one time per week (50%)
Thank you very much

I forgot to mention: they bite 😬 not that they will take a slice of you and not like our fish tank “kissing” our fingers … something in between - very cool .. I was swimming and they were all there looking at me like a big insect 🫤

Hi Colu, I have the exact location … it was in city of “Alto Paraíso de Goias” state of Goias and country Brazil 😐 but many thanks for mentioning this name … I will try to google it …
Maybe this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astyanax_argyrimarginatus
so basically they are like Tetras ?! Haha

Hi Everyone
Could you give me a little help to confirm if this is Blanket Weed? I never had it before. It’s growing in the middle of my hair grass carpet.
Thank You Very Much

Hi Everyone,
I bought this CO2 Flow Meter and I didn’t realize the connector was not a 3/16 inch (0.7 cm) like the common aquarium tubing we usually use. This one is a 5/16 inch (0.8 cm)
I was going to return it but seems like all of them have the same connector (5/16 “)
I tried to find some adaptor or something else without success.
Do you guys have some idea or suggestion? I just don’t want to pay $50 for one of the most expensive ones.

but with a lot of shrimps instead

Looks like an injury keep stable water parameters and Salt a good option as @TheSwissAquarist suggested it will help prevent secondary infection I would start at 1 table spoon for 3 gallons you could add some Indian almond leaves as they have antibacterial and antifungal properties and monitor for a week are these two angel fish a pair or two males what size is the tank @Marcelo
I think they are two males but I never figured out 🙂 it’s. 20 gal tank

I would suggest you to search this forum for “siesta” - you will love that article.

Hi Elyse, what do you mean with 50? And how are you measuring this number ?
When you say you are trying CO2, are you saying you have a tank with injected CO2?
