It’s stable, but hard to keep clean. My hunch is that Endlers have a higher bio load since they eat and poop more. ok I will only keep shrimp in it.

Lemon Posted November 19, 2021 Author Share Posted November 19, 2021 my tanks are looking horrible there is blue green algae and maybe some green hair algae I'm not sure what it is though. the only tank that looks good is my reef. I got a duncan for it at aquashella and it is doing good. I got 2 5 gallons at the aquarium club swap meet. I think I am going to take down the 20 long and use the gravel and plants for the 5 gallon tanks then set it up again for the danios. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick_G Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 That really stinks. What sort of trouble shooting have you done so far? My wife’s tank goes through periodic cycles of green algae after she trims it. I guess it’s triggered by more light. She just gives it a bit of time and it sorts itself out.

I Have tried doing more water changes, reducing light, increasing fertilizer. even if I can fix it I am still going to use the gravel and plants for my 5 gallons. I have been planning to move the danios to a larger tank for a long time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemon Posted June 7, 2022 Author Share Posted June 7, 2022 (edited) ok so the plan for the 20 gallon was that it was going to become a shell dweller tank but now multis are 30$ at my lfs/online, so if I can't find anyone breeding them locally that would sell at a normal price I will probably keep guppies. also the lfs owner suggest adding more flow and light to the reef tank and it really helped with the cyano and corals being angry. painting the backs of tanks is a very slow process but it is finally getting done 🙂 Edited June 7, 2022 by Lemon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemon Posted August 8, 2022 Author Share Posted August 8, 2022 I got a pair of black moscow guppies from Jadren aquatics at aquashella so the 20 long is a guppy tank now. I took the corals from the reef tank to the lfs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemon Posted November 13, 2022 Author Share Posted November 13, 2022 This week I am going to attempt to prepare the 20 gallon for the guppies. And I am going to try and figure out what I need to do for the 75 gallon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
