    Question regarding Ropefish

    I've tried live BBS, micro worms and daphnia and... the fry ate absolutely nothing. I made a mistake though. I found it this big in my main tank and I should have left it there. I don't know what it was eating there, but it was alive and big. After moving it to a separate cycled tank it ate...

    Question regarding Ropefish

    Ropefish don't really breed in captivity. There are maybe two documented times when they really bred and no records of fry reaching adulthood. That being said... Yes, my ropefish were breeding for some time, my biggest female passed though. They breed only when old enough, mine started being...

    Question regarding Ropefish

    You can try nano-noodles - kuhli loaches are really cute and you could get 10 of them in a 40b. Not ropefish, but it's something ;)

    Question regarding Ropefish

    90 cm is a legend, no scientific information on such a long ropefish. They reach 40 cm easily though, still big fish. They can get used to something around medium-high light over time. I agree that they can destroy scapes easily. Uprooting plants is like a hobby for them. I have to replant some...

    Question regarding Ropefish

    Ropefish are rather social fish. I would get at least 75g and 3-4 ropes. They really behave different (and less skittish) when kept in a group.

    What do you feed your bettas?

    Thanks, I'll get the sv2 version, it looks just right for my bettas!

    What do you feed your bettas?

    Could you post a photo with the granules size on your hand or something to compare? One of my bettas is notorious slob and won't eat anything too big. So I don't know, if I should buy the size 1 or 2.

    What do you feed your bettas?

    Wow, they really do ship it everywhere. Well, I guess time to try it. Edit: I like the fact, that it's phosphate free. Maybe I'll use it for my ropes too, if they'll like it. In my ropefish tank phosphates are always off the charts.

    What do you feed your bettas?

    Never heard of it and I can't really find opinions about it, but the description sounds nice. Maybe I'll try it, if I'll find a store that ships to Poland.

    What do you feed your bettas?

    One of my bettas is lazy and won't eat pellets too. I'm giving him Naturefood Kristall size XS and he loves it. This is half of his diet though. The other half is frozen mosquito larvae, bloodworms, daphnia, tubifex, brine shrimp. The other betta eats those frozen food and krill, OSI Red Power...

    Possibly a dumb question... How the heck do you count your fish?

    I have no idea how to count fish when feeding, they're everywhere and crazy. I just try to sit a bit and count in threes a few times. I have to do this only with my congo tetras though, other fish are easy to count. (Hello Mr fish, you are the only betta in this tank, are you there?)

    Congo Tetras Slowly Dying

    Congo tetras live 3-5 years, so it's possible they are just getting old. Don't know how young they were when you got them, but assuming a few months, they might be reaching 4 years now. I've heard they can reach 6 years, but usually they'll live those 3-5, so it's definitely time for them :(

    Emergency!!!

    If I take some water from my tank and leave it for 24h it will reach the pH of 6.8, with CO2 I'm getting to 6.0, at night... it's 6.2, not much higher, so this is how much CO2 the plants are producing at night. With high plant mass you might need higher flow at night. I see you have min flow at...
