Aquarists Unite!

[GreatBreeder]

I bet plenty of you all knew me, but I bet you didn't know I was as obsessed with fish as I am with chickens. I've made this thread for all aquarists out there, newbie or pro, nano tank or stock pond, shrimp keeper or koi enthusiast! In this section I did a little searching and couldn't find anything about fish! Well, no longer, because you can all share and ask here!

I have a 10, 20, and 29 gallon.

I also have a 100 gallon pond/watering trough with 4 goldfish.

Cool! I imagine people gasping like, "100 gallons for 4 goldfish?", but that is actually their space needs!

I have a 29 gal low tech planted tank with rasboras, a bristlenose pleco, and cherry shrimp.

Sadly, it is mostly ignored, but does an admirable job of staying clean and healthy despite the inattention.

My tank is a 30 gallon, going to set up a little tub for all my plant scraps to grow like weeds in the summer sun so I'll have an ample supply. My tank is also a wreck, it looked nice, but now it's has out of theme decor and dying small clumps of java hidden from the light. It has a goldfish and a large tetra that are the food before the others. I'm remodeling it next week

I have a ten gallon tank, slowly decreasing with fish :/ I can never keep them alive *sigh*
Currentally:
1 pink yellow bellied Guppy(Daylily)
1 Black point speckled Platy(Spot)
1 Black Point Platy(Sunset)
1 Harlquin Rabrooska(or something like that)(Raboska)
1 green Cory Catfish(Tiny)
1 large albino Cory Catfish(Polar)

Harelquin Rasbora.

You might want to get a bigger tank, 30 gallon as a minimum, although you wouldn't expect their much easier to manage.

Why?I have always kept fish this way, no more then 10.

My tank is a total wreck. It looked nice before it fell into undermanagment, neglect, and disrepair. I'm scrapping everything in it in favor of a powder/nutrient substrate mix, dragon stone and driftwood decor, as well as java moss, elodea, and duckweed amongst other plants. My stocking scheme is unclear, but it'll have a lot of brightly colored shrimp like cherries, electric yellows and blues along with small, active fish with some bottomfeeders.

My 29 gallon has 4 tetras, 1 bristlenose pleco, a betta, and 4 female guppies. My 20 gallon has 11 adolescent and male guppies, a betta, 2 shrimp, 2 assassin snails, and pest snails. My 10 gallon has a betta and a female guppy on one side, and guppy fry on the other side (it has a divider).
