I live in an area at PH 7.6 with hard water, I grow Vallis, Amazon Sword and a couple of other plants, one looks to be a smaller strain of the vallis genus, the other is very short and mossy. I buy plants that are mostly grown and just embed them in the gravel after removing the potting material...

lil bronze fella, very sweet temprament and very shy

1 rig is an old school PC, one is my parents, one is for rendering and travel, one is for gaming

because i was an idiot and i blew through all my money   but it was worth it   IK it must have been fun building them. Do you have steam? what games do you play?   steam is a yes, i play Elite:Dangerous and very occasionally fallout 4

you can keep an all-male shoal, it's not impossible. Some have a bit more of a nippy temprament than others however so that's always something to bear in mind. You can stop the aggression by introducing females.. but it doesn't take a genius to work out what that entails

if he's been like it for a for while without issue i probably wouldn't worry. shop fish are all inbred, so you are going to get some deformitites. In any case, it looks like a very bloated stomach, perhaps your tetra is constipated, although making him eat laxatives is going to be a challenge...

the snail won't do too much, they eat algae, this stuff is a bacterial colony gently clean down anything that's covered in this stuff, the water change will lower the amount of available nutrients in the water. rinse out the filter foams under tank water, if you find anything that is clogged...

it's a bacteria as far as i remember, it grows wherever it can whenever there are excess nutrients. You will always have it to some extent, that cloudy crud you scrape from the glass or the slight film on all of your ornaments. If it gets a food source it will bloom. Clean it off and do a water...

who knows. I'm a man out of time. Literally. I have no time to do anything.   greetings I'm.. living.

It's been a while. I'm still running, still at 95 Litres. Sorta ran out of money to do anything else really, i have, at least, got a decent filter on there now, a couple of TT EX series running in series. Wish i had time to say more, but it's a busy life huh.. Take care

thirding fluttermoth. At most, the tank may smell a little damp die to the humidity under the hood and small bits of algae or inevitably mould growing on the hood which should be cleaned every week (warm, moist environments tend to do that). If you don't have a hood, it shouldn't smell too much...

be careful if you fry steak near the fish, i tmay develop a sudden love for meat and turn into a pihrana   that's totally how it works
