Soo I’ve been away for 2 weeks on holiday and have come back to a tank covered in this algae..I’m worried it’s blue-green algae and dangerous. Is it safe to clean out the tank? The fish are all okay still luckily!

Okay I didn’t even think of shrimp!! I’ve never kept shrimp before though!

Soo I’ve set up this tank with the idea of wanting a Betta fish in there but.. 1. I don’t think it’s big enough..even though it’s a 25L tank…plus now that my plants have gone crazy there’s even less room. 2. Even though the filter flow is adjustable and is on the lowest it still seems to have...

Okay thank you. I will top up the ammonia. I plan on putting just a lone Betta fish in there as it’s only a small tank, so hopefully there won’t be too much Ammonia strain!

25 litres, a mixture of real and fake, just a normal filter not an air pump one, it was a couple of weeks ago I started it and I added ammonia about a week ago which went up to 3ppm.

So I’m cycling a new tank, I seem to have a lot of Nitrites and Nitrates but no Ammonia. I need to add more Ammonia still to keep it going though right?

Thank you! Okay I’ll give it a go with the rest of the plants tomorrow. I just got scared haha.

So I got these plants yesterday and theyre coated (inside the pot) in this weird fibery-like stuff but it’s not like the usual coconut fibre I have seen before that you get in the Tropica plants. I don’t know whether I was meant to take it out the pot or not. I have zero experience with planted...

I don’t really have the room :( they’ll be okay as a 4 though right?

Soo I actually did go back and get some after finding out what they were and doing some quick research. I have just seen your replies. I paid £3.50 per fish and got 4.
