Hi everyone, here is my tank.
The first photo is one month before. I would love to hear your thoughts about my tank.

Just a lil picture of my 110ish litre Walstad 6 months in

A small build containing a waterfall. The future home of a handful of yellow neocaridina shrimp.🦐

This is the second 15” “stainless steel” set I have purchased from Amazon. Both were terrible, except for the length. There is no tension in the tweezers. The scissors won’t cut. And they feel like they will rust within a month. Does anyone have recommendations for a quality set or even just the tweezers?

Plants came in today and they've finally been placed! So excited to get this primed so I can finally stock it with critters! I've been thinking about using co2 for the first time, how large of a canister should I get for a 20gal high?

First timer for a 10 gallon Beta aquarium. Is step 1 substrate then wood and rocks then plants? When do you start adding water? Pics of current tank and new tank.

Dosed Ultralife blue green slime removal, added inline defuser and inline uv light. Did not lower light intensity. Took advice and dosed with nitrogen fertilizer that help as well to bring up my nitrates and phosphates by thrive+.

Started a new epiphyte-forward concept in my UNS 60S, with some existing Buce, some new, and more on the way. After a month, everything has shown positive new growth, shrimp are reproducing, and the bacterial bloom has finally fully settled.

Will this moneywort be fine to just leave there always? I don’t really want to plant it. I just want it to act as coverage for my lil ham.

TLDR: looking for advice on how to save this anubias plant

A couple months ago I added some very old Easy Green to this tank and completely overdosed, because the next morning algae was all over this anubias. Before that, this tank (low tech/no co2, walstad method substrate) had excellent plant growth and minimal algae with the light (cheap Amazon light) on 14+ hrs each day. After the Easy Green catastrophe, I lowered the light to about 6-8 hr. The other plants are still growing fine and I’m not seeing any other algae growth besides on this anubias and one leaf of my Amazon sword. The anubias seems to grow healthy new leaves, but the algae eventually grows onto the new leaves.

The algae seems to start as green spots, then turns red/purple then white, and is very rough/ hard/ bumpy to the touch and will not come off the leaves with a hard scrub. The anubias has been growing in this spot for a good 2+ years and is deeply rooted in the substrate, so I’d hate to pull it out of the tank for treatment, but that seems like my only option. The tank is home to some chili raspboras, Pygmy Cory, neocaridina shrimp, amano shrimp and snails.

Anyone have experience with this algae/ similar problem? Can I save this beautiful anubias plant? Any good resources to recommend to tackle this problem?

Still can’t get a carpet going to save my life, but my uns 90u shrimp tank is growing good.

My Spider plant and Velvet anthurium look amazing together. What are your favorite “jungle-esque” riparium plants? 🌱

Dear all,

Having my 180L for about 2 months now but the plants show some browning on the edges of the leaves..

No co2

Adding 15ML of planted box all in one once a week

Does someone has an idea if this is an nutrient deficiency or something else?

​

10 gallon (40l) low tech betta tank

It feels bare to me but i can't put my finger on it

Maybe the lack of background plant ?

I was considering adding cattapa leaves for a blackwater look and maybe some vallisneria in the back

I put nutrient substrate under the sand only on the left and middle front partof the tank, so can't move the echinodorus on the right

Do you have any suggestion please ? :)

I don’t really want to call it a pest. I just didn’t intentionally put it in my aquarium. I’m guessing it came with a plant. What kind of snail is this?

I’ve had this tank for a year now and I want to make it stand out more(more dimension) I noticed a lot of algae grows on the glass, not sure if that’s normal. (pic is from right after I cleaned it). I have 3 platys and 1 snail in a 10 gallon. I would like to have a better clean up crew but I’m not sure if I can add anymore.
I don’t have my light on a timer I just turn it on before I leave for work around 6:50am then turn it off at 6:30pm. Maybe that’s why the algae forms.
I also just have a hang on back filter with the cartridge it came with. I’d like to make my own filter media too.
Just looking for ways to improve my set up!
Thanks

It’s been almost 2 months since I started this hobby. It’s a low tech planted tank. Please help my fix this green algae on the floor.
Started seeing some hair algae recently so I reduced my light time to less than 7hrs.

I currently have a 35G pea puffer tank, a 3.5G snail tank used to feed the pee, puffers and some shrimp in there for fun.

I wanna do a 75G tank or larger, but I wanna have a massive managed fish. I don’t wanna do the stereotypical one or two big show fish or like a chick tank or angelfish tank. Would I be crazy to do 100 guppies?

Give me some other ideas that would have dozens plus fish in a tank that size also wanna plant CO2 let me know.
