Hey guys, I'm into week 2 in cycling my tank with aqua soil. I recently put new driftwood in and I've read that driftwood can cause that type of white fuzzy fungus (pic attached). I've used the vacuum to get rid of some but I'm still a bit worried as I've spotted more around the tank. Is...

Thank you! I'll make sure to do all of this

That's literally my tank! haha. Thank you! I shall assemble my filter in that order. This just seems a much more cost effective approach instead of paying heaps for the genuine parts for the filter.

Awesome thank you. Will I need to possibly get anything else or is the sponge and filter material enough?

I currently have Bronze Corys

I definitely was thinking about adding another two cory's but then thought about potentially overcrowding the tank and figured shrimp are small and maybe be a better choice?

Hey guys, I've had my Betta and three Cory's co-existing for the last 3 or so months now and they are doing pretty well. Quite recently, i've been seeing a lot of youtube videos with Red Cherry Shrimps. So, my question for you guys is would you recommened adding some shrimps to my 30L tank...
