    Autumn leaves to aqua? Contamination or something positive?

    Wow! So many interesting answers! :D Brilliant, thank you all! I guess I might try it out after all. Would you add freshly dropped leaves or always wait for them to be completely dried up? From fresh leaves, wonder if there's a danger of any infectious leaf diseases able to carry on living in...

    Autumn leaves to aqua? Contamination or something positive?

    Hey! I know there are some special leaves sold for aqua, but does a regular tree leaf do too or may it cause some contamination? Might it be decorative, and eventually extra nutrition for Neocaridina shrimp and algae eaters? Or a contamination risk? EDIT: I removed the maple leaf for now...

    Autumn in the aquarium I'm a little bit worried if it was a good idea to add a maple leaf to the aqua. May there be some contamination? I know they sell some special leaves for aqua, but is it necessary for it to be from a special tree? Could someone enlighten me fast please?

    In order to create a breeding spot for Honey Gouramis with halted water movement, I cut a plastic circle out of a noodle cup and firmly attached it around the thermometer. Perfect match! The breeding rim is visible, yet stylish. Looks like it belongs there. I'm super happy! So blessed...

    Surprise! I have just introduced a sweet pair of Honey Gouramis (Trichogaster chuna) to my aquarium! A day to celebrate! The upper section of the tank had always been a bit empty. They are the natural colour variety which I love and their colours will get stronger and brighter. I was...
