Re: plants that work with tetras

If you're up for a challenge, try some stem plants like Hornwort or Water Wisteria. They grow fast and provide great cover for Tetras. Just be ready to trim often. I run a 20 gallon with these and my Tetras breed like crazy in the dense foliage.

Re: Finding a betta tankmate compromise

If you're gonna try shrimp, go for Amanos. They're bigger and less likely to get eaten. Just make sure there's plenty of moss for cover.

Re: Finding a betta tankmate compromise

Pygmy corys are a solid choice, but they're bottom dwellers, so your betta might not even notice them. Just keep the substrate smooth to avoid barbel damage. What's your filtration like? Over-filtering helps with bioload.

Re: Identifying the candy cane coral parasite

Managed to figure out the pic posting. Is that a parasite?

Identifying the candy cane coral parasite

I'm seeing these weird white puffy things on my candy cane coral and I have no idea what they are. They're attached to the stalk and just showed up recently. They seem to be growing and multiplying, but I'm not sure what's going on. I'd love to post some pictures, but I'm not sure how to do that here.
