I have a 10 gal tank and I was thinking of putting 3-4 neon tetras ,1 african dwarf frog and 1-3 vampire shrimp or yellow or purple banded shrimp if they are freshwater.And I’m going to ask if they store has bristlenose plecos and clams. I’m also looking for a betta but its fins might get ripped .So I know I’m getting 3 or more neon tetras ,1 african dwarf frog and some kind of shrimp from the store but I’m not sure if I should do that, what do you think?

I have a 10 gal tank. If i put shrimp ( ghost ) would my other fish eat them or my catfish ( corys )?? What will they do for my tank? Please tell me everything about them. THANKS
Hello,i just wanted to know, if anyone can give me an estimate on what i can put in my 20 gallon high freshwater aquarium, along with my BGK and my pictus catfish.
A few things i had in mind were, a rope fish,another pictus,or anything else thats exciting and elegant,Also i feed my BGK these tropical crisps, bloodworm’s and some baby shrimp.I’ve been reading things about feeding it frozen meat..i don’t really understand that, but i really am interested in the rope fish and i really want one.
ok, so if i do get a 55-75 gallon tank, what am supposed to put it on, because i put my 20 on this table and it almost collapsed.
I have only a few fish, guppys, neons, cory cats. 150 Gal tank with slate rock, gravel and sand. Live plants (one type, momo?) Fern like straight growing, 74″ max. I had an issue with algae, first thin black then green then thick spongy green, now thin and thick green with the bearded brown on EVERYTHING.
Water test says, Nitrate is 0, Nitrite is 0, Hardness is 120ppm, Alka/Buff is 120ppm, pH is looking like 8.4, Ammonia is 0.
Ugh……Am I going Brackish?! What do I do. Add pHMinus? then what? I can buy fish,shrimp and plants for the algae issue as well as scrubbing, but dude, whats up with my water! Could extra conditioner help this? My main issue was and acted like Nitrate issues, but does not seem to be it.
The Green algae began as the famous Blue Green then evolved into the Hairy Brown. Bubbles lover to stick to it, they get to the size of BB pellets! Rocks are not fizzling, and the plants only get the air bubbles stuck to them, mild algae if any. The glass only gets the paper thin green algae. I do use Phos-X, granted only enough for a 30 Gal tank. However it does cut down on the odor. Yucky pond! The hard water/pH and such would make sense to why newly added fish pop up dead within a couple days…I just don’t want to be limited by the hardy Goldfish being the only thing able to survive this! lol Oh, my lights are on for 4 hours, and I feed only once a day, 1/2 tsp of granules and 1/2 flake. Everything is gone in less than 3min.
Looks like short feather hair at a few feet, but has a very “can’t hold the rock kind of slimy” feel and has a soft/gel look to it. Colors range from bright emerald to tourquise, then theres black, a brown, and baige sand brown. I have darn good photos, I’ll get them online if someones interested.
Ok I’m planing on attempting to raise crayfish. I’m wanting to first get my live food reproducing and multiplying. I have a 10 gal tank set up to put the ghost shrimp, guppies and snails in. Problem is I don’t know what freshwater snails are the easiest to take care of and to mass produce easy. I plan to put my water temp between 75f-80f so that the shrimp will be very active. Anyone that can give me advice about the snails and or Ghost shrimp please let me know.
