Hello,
I am a new member of plantedtank.net, I've had a planted tank for about 3 months now and need help and a little of guidance on where to go. I honestly don't even know what some of the plants/fish are in my tank and will take criticisms and feedback to help better my tank.
My Setup:
29 Gallon Tank
This Light
2 Amazon Swords
4 Mormino Moss Balls
1 Unknown Plant 1 (Attached)
1 Unknown Plant 2 (Attached)
1 Dwarf Pleco
1 Bamboo Shrimp
3 Nerite Snails
6 Unknown Fish Silver Ones 1 (Attached)
3 Unknown Fish Mino looking ones 2 (Attached)
4 Unknown Fish Orange Ones 3 (Attached)
2 Some Sort of Cat Fish (Attached)
(I'm fairly new to fish tanks in general I have been told I'm overstocked, if this is true what is generally an okay amount of fish for this tank?)
Water Temp ~82 Degrees F
This Gravel
PH 7.6
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 80ppm (Currently treating with this)
My Observations:
The amazon swords were doing really well initially, growing many new leaves. Then they stopped and started browning a bit and growing algae. The Unknown plant 1 has been doing very well growing new leaves like crazy, no complaints. Unknown plant 2 has been trimmed, when I planted them they started growing new leaves from the ground but the initial ones started dying so I trimmed the initial plants but kept the new leaves, they don't appear to be doing so well. The moss balls are starting to brown a tad which is concerning. The fish all appear to be healthy.
Thanks in advance!
