She was a little bloated for a short while then get better. After that she started having stringy poop and then stopped eat, bloated up and got pineconing.

Okay, so, I have a 10G that once inhabited a betta and a bunch of snails... Now just the snails. The betta was euthanised after she had gotten dropsy, since I had no medications and everyone said she would just suffer and die... It has been 24 days and I haven't touched the tank till...

I asked my father again this morning, he said there's no chemicals added in that tap's water.

10 to 14 dGH

I tested my GH, it's between 10-14. I can't tell exactly because the colour change is so subtle, but it's all the pet stores sell (sera gh test)

Thing is, it's the filtered river water system my dad made and the only petstore with tests is on the other island which is a 1 Hour Boat ride/15 Min Plane Ride away. My mother may be going to the island next week so I've asked her to get KH and GH tests

Really?? I was horrified my shrimp and snails would drop dead with that stuff, that's reassuring--Thanks!

My mother says the river water is soft and I'm guessing the calcium build up I get in my HOB filters is just from it being nutrient rich?

Hello! And thanks! Dimensions: 55x30x35 I don't know my GH yet since I couldn't get the test for it, I think my water may be hard? I don't know the signs of it without a kit- My Ph is 7.6 but it lowers down to 7.0-7.2 whenever I add in all the plants and whatnot. Temperature stays around...

I was initially going to purchase another 10G but found a 15G that was somehow smaller than my bedside table... Anyway I've mostly been mentioned bettas which I already have five of so I'm a bit iffy with giving a 15G to another betta unless I simply fall in love with one before I can get it...
