    Ocean salt to raise water hardness?

    Ocean salt to raise water hardness?

    so its only a small tank, like 10-20 and since one fish just released the gates of her fishy loins and tripled my population, i think i need a bigger tank. people said the fry wouldnt survive but not one of those sons of guns died that i noticed. it also looks like another is knocked up higher...

    Tank mates

    Thank you so much! And yes I’m diving into learning about these little boogers. They are quite the hassle so I will have to get over some babies but if I can get ahead and slow it down I can get to a stable and small population.

    Tank mates

    Howdy. I got some mollies handed to me since I’m the pet person. Two had babies and I ain’t about it. I was told an all female tank is chill but males not so much.
