I have rescaped my old 10 gallon tank because it was in really bad shape, and I set up a somewhat biotope-esque blackwater tank that will hopefully have some Betta Smaragdina in it after the holidays. As of right now I threw in a bunch of plants that I had lying around and dried oak and beech...

I FOUND ONE I DID IT!!!!!!!!!! I haven't been in this thread for a while but I managed to find a Betta Smaragdina male for sale on the website of an aquarium shop 2hrs from me! This means that hopefully after the summer if we're going up to Dublin I could rescape the tank I'm gonna keep him in...

Fantastic!!

Thank you so much for your reply, but could I use a normal sponge filter or powerhead? It isn't illegal to take crabs up to a certain size here, so I might probably get going after the summer (if I can convince my mom to let me have a 4th tank 😅)

Yes it is

Right so probably not hermit crabs, as they are terrerstrial. I may find some normal small crabs definitely around here.

I will check and research if this is allowed then, as of now it's just an idea

I was thinking like rock pool-esque scape, nothing too complicated or expensive

Hello, this is probably not going to work, but I would like to know if anyone did this before and if it'll work. So, I have a spare 20 litre tank lying around, and i have a cool idea i want to try. I am thinking of doing like a local species tank. I live in ireland with beaches nearby on the...

I will post updates tho in case anything happens

It probably wasnt mycobacterium, as it is much slower to kill the fish and shows more signs

I HAVE FOUND THE CULPRIT!!!!!!! it was my filter all along! So I have done a water change yesterday and i have filled the water up high to the point where it went over the top of the skimmer, and over the top of the little cage I had there to stop plants and stuff going in. Turns out, when the...

I have studied some more and it could also be a Hexamita infection, however if any more fish die i will do a necropsy. Fron what i have researched(mostly vetetinary websites) the hexamita reproduces very quickly and creates a massive infection in the fish rapidly. The symptoms of the fish that...

On me as of now I have: Amikin, Pennicillin, esha 200, some "anti fungus and finrot"(i have no idea what is in it), metronidazole, fenbendazole, and methylene blue
