Thanks for the tips. I'll get on those lights asap. And what is your opinion on have fern and putting them in the substrate. I have a soil bottom with sand top.

the hairs are doing okay so far. the tears i can't tell. But we have 2 regular hood lights using those classic fluorescent bulbs. Planning to switch to the T5's or something later. Do you have a recommendation. Was planning to add fish this week too. Do you think the wool won't affect the fish?

So far amazon swords, java ferns, the wool is on dwarf baby tears and dwarf hair grass. Theres also a purple red plant in the tank I don't know the name it just looks cool.

LFS sold me potted plants and I couldn't get the stone wool off completely so I planted with them on it. Honestly its a good amount. Is it bad for a tank Im planning on putting fish in soon? Is there a proper or really good method for removing it? Should I pull the plants up and replant them...

Will seachem paraguard work instead of prazipro?

I got some api meds for the ick and im in mid treatment for them. Should I wait till the ick goes away before I start treating them with the other stuff? And will petsmart have the other stuff? Or should I look for it online? Any websites that will sell it for cheap or should I just check amazon?

Are parasites fish specific? Should I be worried about my other fish as well? I'm dealing with ick right now. I'm assuming the dats I brought home introduced them to my tank. The tank temp was at 76 before I got the dats. When I introduced them (which they didn't have before putting them in) the...

One of my dats had this lumpy white poop. I've had them for 3 days so far. It looks a little yellowy and white. I had one die yestersay. When I got home it was pale white with a yellow belly. Please help.

I do 50-60% weekly water changes.

Yea planning on building a 300+ gallon plywood tank. Drawing out the plans and researching about sumps currently. Right now I have a canister rated for 200 gallons but I'm planning on getting another 1 to get the water even cleaner and for food I feed my fish chopped shrimp and pellets.

Hey guys I've been thinking about getting a Motoro ray. I currently have a 125 tank with a gar a silver arowana and 2 tiger shovelnose catfish. How long would the ray last in 125 until I needed to upgrade? And how fast do they grow?

I got 3 from a lfs. When they first came in they told me I went to check then out and they had aweful ick and the owner advised against getting them so I did so. I went back a week later and the ick was virtually gone the lfs took great care of them and I bought all 3 on the spot cause I was so...

Yea I got 3 reds 1 gold and some geos I wanted to get some turquoise or rotkeils. But my lfs's rarely get them.

Mines do it alot too after water changes. Idk who is male or female. But I've also witnessed some fin nipping.

Hopefully it'll work for a little while. The sevs are 2x the size of the gt so as long as they can deal with each other until the sevs hit 6-8 inches then I'll be solid.

The 55 is temp for the birchir geos and the severums. They are going in the 125 with my arowana and gar once they get up to size and yea I gotta figure out what to do with the rams. My gf really liked the gt and if she wants a fish i can't say no lol. Maybe I'll need to trade them out at my lsf...

Actually nvm I guess I'll find it on my own soon enough hahaha

Lol I wish. My gar in the 125 would tear up anything I have in that 55. Worst comes to worst I can just put the fish that aren't handling the gt well into my 29. Any idea which fish my have the hardest time?
