    I need a little help with my two surprise amano shrimp

    That's what I was hoping to do once I can scrounge up the money for it, but as far as finances I'm spread a little thin due to college. At the moment I'm hoping to just keep them safe until I can figure out what to do with them long term, to be honest. Thank you btw!

    I need a little help with my two surprise amano shrimp

    So for background, I got amanos many many months ago for my 10g, but the store only sold babies. I had assumed they would have enough hiding places to stay until they grew out, but once my betta picked one off and I couldn't find the others I assumed it was a failed idea. I rehomed my betta a...

    Are shrimp a good idea?

    How much media to put in a canister filter

    Fair warning: I haven't used the type of filter you're using, but I've seen others use similar varieties. In my opinion, you probably want as much media as you can fit without going over budget/wasting/etc. It will hold more beneficial bacteria to keep your tank healthy, which is always a good...

    Are shrimp a good idea?

    To start this off, I absolutely love shrimp but both times I've tried to keep them they died off for one reason or another. The first time I believe it was because I hadn't finished cycling my tank thoroughly, or maybe there was an ammonia spike. The second time my betta ate them during his...

    Getting rid of fungus/biofilm?

    I can grab a photo soon, but there is currently a betta inside it. I redid his tank yesterday and added new wood, though i had hoped boiling it a little first would help some of this.

    Getting rid of fungus/biofilm?

    I knew that my spiderwood was gonna rot for a little bit when I introduced it, as both of the other wood pieces I have used in the past did, but this time I don't have a cleanup crew to take care of it. My water is a little cloudy, which I am assuming is from the wood though it looks kinda like...

    **Question of the week** | What is your favorite aquarium plant, and why?

    My favorite has always been anubias! I love the shape and how sturdy it is. I have 4 in my 10g, and I can't get enough :p

    From then to now!

    Hey everyone! I know it's been a while since I last made a post here. I've checked in once in a blue moon, but I had neither the stories to tell nor the experience to contribute, so I've been pretty quiet ever since I learned how to stop panicking and hovering over Hank lmao. Anyways, a little...
