[AquaticLife] Rams and incoming fish

The Rams seemed to be the healthiest of all the fish, they are active and already searching for food. The bleeding hearts seemed a bit shaken up, but they’re eating now too. The cory’s are hiding, I think they didn’t like their trip I love the rams, tiny little guys […]

Rams and incoming fish

I have too many fish to put into a 10 gallon for quarantine as I made a large fish order should I go ahead and use the 55 gallon that I set up this weekend as a walstad tank? The cycled media is still in another filter and the tank is only lightly planted until […]

[AquaticLife] 55 gallon tank for the Angel’s

Okay I have the tank filled with everything (soil/gravel/crushed coral/and water), and I have the filter running to get any debris out of the water, I netted as much as I could though. How fast will worm castings break down and put out nitrogen? Does anyone know?

[AquaticLife] 55 gallon tank for the Angel’s

It has worm castings in the soil, they are slow release nitrogen, not sure if that has something to do with it? I will get the tank set up today and start the tests this week to see how the water is.

Also your tank will not be cycled until you get a nitrate reading, but it will take a week or two.

[AquaticLife] new tank

If you only put one tetra in the tank, the bacteria will grow only to support the one tetra and will not be sufficient for the corys. I believe the instructions with Dr. Tim’s say to add all fish at the same time as the Dr. Tim’s. If you don’t, the bacteria you […]
