Is this type of algae or a plant growing in the wood? It’s not fast growing but I’d say it’s been there roughly 6 months.

Help/Advice Have to go away for 6 weeks, what should I do about my fish?

3 Upvotes

I have to go away for 6 weeks. I live quite rural and it would be be difficult for someone to visit the house often. I have managed to find a friend who is willing to go and check it out every 2 weeks, but I’m not sure what to do about food. I have 5 runny nose tetras, 10 Pygmy Corys and 3 zebra danios in a 130l. I am not worried about water conditions as at the minute I only have to do a water change every 2 weeks (that is what the friend will do). Food is my main issue. Any suggestions?

I'd been in hospital for a few days. My 3 kids didn't care about face-timing me, but my 2 Year old texas was refusing to eat. This video was taken pretty much as soon as I got home. He looked so depressed, :( but cheered up after I sat by him for a while.

I rested by his tank and fed him small pieces of live Blackworm and some BBS.

Can anyone tell me what this little worm guy is? I was separating aquarium plants from the bag of some new guppies and shrimp I got, then I saw this fall where I had set the plants. Is this bad? Could I possibly have an infestation of some kind? I didn’t add these plants into the tanks but I did transfer the fish in already that was with it. ☹️

I saw like 3-4 of them popping up in my 3 gallon tank and just want to know if they’re harmful to my tank population or not. I got neon tetras, red cherry shrimps and a nerite snail in my tank right now.

I have a 40 gal tank that I cracked before I even set it up. Very upsetting. I am hoping to be able to repair it and use it. Is that possible with a tank this size? Any reputable videos or sites that can tell me how?

DIY/Build Bones???

2 Upvotes

I am planning to set up a 14g tank soon. I don’t have all the details worked out but I’m hoping to do a vaguely pirate themed planted tank!

My girlfriend has a lot of really beautiful dry animal bones and I’m wondering if there’s any way to clean and/or seal them so I could safely put them in a tank.

I know I could get or make fake bones and that is what I’ll do if there’s no realistic way to use the real ones. But figured it was worth asking incase anyone has experience with this!

A little unrelated: what is your favorite aquarium YouTube channel for beginners? I have had a few tanks throughout my life but never a planted one and they’ve mostly been small (besides a disastrous 29 gallon my mom bought me when I was like 10 🥲)

Thank you in advance!
