My Aquarium Fish Are Not Active And Some Are Dying. Help?

I tested the pH levels, nitrate, nitrite, Hardness, Alkalinity, and ammonia levels and all are normal. Some of my fish have died and the others are not active. They just stay in one spot and occasionally move around. I feed them twice a day. Once in the morning and once in the evening. Have any ideas why this is happening? Thanks.

What Are Some Easy Live Plants That Don’t Require Special Lights Or Co2?

I have a 55 gallon aquarium and I want to add some live plants, all the fish are freshwater tropical community fish. White clouds, guppies, danio’s, hatchets, a pleco, cory’s, etc. What would be some good plants to use in the back of the tank that will grow fairly fast and will look good, be easy to care for and make my tank prettier and more natural looking. I have natural colored medium size gravel. Thanks :-)

My Fish Has Some Stringy Stuff Attached To It’s Tail?

I woke up earlier today to notice that one of my guppies has some strange looking stringy thing attached to it’s tail. And right under it, it has another thing attached to it that looks as if its extremely thin thin thin poop. His tail also looks as though some kind of slime is on his tail as well. He’s always been a very hearty fish, and I know he’s gone through quite a few problems (fin rot, dropsy and so on), but he’s lived through it all, he’s a very very strong fish and is always active. Almost like a little kid that has A.D.D that never sleeps (lol). He still gets very excited when it’s feeding time and eats well and swims around perfectly fine. But that stringy stuff attached to his tail looks as if its growing there. I can’t imagine of a way that he can poop and have that get stuck there. It’s a reddish color. At first I assumed it WAS poop since their flakes are a pinkish red color that’s what they poop out and it looks just like that color.
I do water changes to the tank every week, the ammonia levels are always fine, just recently I had to clean some of the plants and a small lantern that’s in the tank because it was getting rather dirty, but I’m not sure how that would affect them since I’ve done it before and nothing happened.
Any idea on what this could be?

Q&A: Idea for an algae “farm” for my Mollies. Could use some info.?

Question by Syll: Idea for an algae “farm” for my Mollies. Could use some info.?
In my 55 gallon planted tetra tank, I’ve had a pretty big outbreak of algae. Not sure what kind it is, but it’s green, photosynthetic, long, and when it gets thick it looks a lot like moss you’d find in a lake. It’s very soft to the touch.
I think I’ve figured out why and am going to be working on that, but an idea came to me. I took a soft brush I use for cleaning out tubes in the aquarium, wound a bunch around it, and plopped it in my Molly tank. They loved it! They could not eat that stuff fast enough!
Since Mollies are primarily vegetarian in the wild, I figure it would be a good supplement for their diet. So, I’m thinking of setting up a tank for the sole purpose of growing this stuff as I intend to do what I can to get rid of it in the tetra tank. I wish I could just put some mollies in there to eat the stuff but the water is soft and unsalted.
Anyway, on to the question at hand. What could I do to promote the growth of this stuff? I plan on using an aquarium with no fish in it as I don’t want to harm any in my experimentation. Also planning on bright light since it’s photosynthetic. The stuff seems pretty prolific, but I want to get as much as I can as fast as I can for the Mollies.

What color spectrum is the best for this kind of algae?
What water hardness (both GH and KH) are best for this kind of algae?
What pH and temp is best for this king of algae?
Forgot to mention, no windows provide consistent sunlight through the day, so natural lighting is out. Stupid north facing windows!

Dont give up on the natural light, even if your window doesn’t get direct sunlight it will still be plenty to grow algae.

As an experiment, get some glass jars, fill them with old tank water and some random aquarium ornament sized rocks. Leave them on the window sill for a couple of weeks, I bet they will be covered with algae. Now just swap them with some rocks from the Mollie tank. repeat as needed. If you have several jars and a lot of spare rocks you can keep a steady supply of algae.

If you are going to grow it in a tank, then you need light and nutrients. A bit off ammonia and high nitrate levels are going to help, hence using the old tank water. Dropping in some liquid plant fertiliser will probably help, You dont have to worry about the fish, so consider how fertiliser run-off from farms causes algae bloom in rivers and lakes, That is what you are trying to create.

As long as there are no fish in the tank there is not much that can go wrong.
