Chayleo- Wait- Are you the person who lost all your tiger barbs?

Ye.
Lost over half my tiger barbs, and all 4 of my panda barbs.
I lost one more tiger barb early yesterday morning, the 4 or 5 survivors seem to be okay right now.
All 6 black ruby barbs are all perfectly okay, better than ever, master race apparently. Little weirdos.
Both of my blood cichlids are okay. Featherfin catfish is okay, his cuts from scratching are healing up fine.
The few surviving tiger barbs are acting a little lethargic but other than that they don't seem to have anything wrong with them.
I'm not sure if it's because this is a very small number for them, or if they're still sick with something. Or if it's because of the high temp & medicines.
Going to slowly lower the temp back to 76 once I'm 100% sure there is no more ich.

Hey everyone! I got a new axolotl yesterday.
She's the one on the right. Still needs a name! And she's currently holding. Luckily they seem to be getting along.

And good luck with the barb sicknesses! ( Ha I was going to say the barby sickness )

How long have you had fish:
I've been into aquariums for a little over ten years. Never really branched out aside from my piranha's and cichlids but looking to fill up the 75 and another 25 not sure with just what yet. I'm thinking I want to try saltwater but I have no idea where to even start with those x3

Ah yes they always have that grin! And they say 10 gallons per 1 axie, but in my opinion I think you could go a little more. These two are currently in a 40 gallon. Feel free to PM me if you have any other questions!

So about my mystery snails......

The oldest babies (probably 2-3 cm, idk I haven't measured them yet) are black with yellowish spots! It's so weird! The mom is my one golden and the dad is my black. My blue mystery snail dropped her babies today. I think that my other golden is the father but the babies are greenish blueish now. It's hard to tell as their only a few mm! And the baby guppies housed with them are starting to get colors. All but one of them have gravid spots so they won't be too colorful but that's ok!

So, my mother recently got two Tiger Oscar cichlids (i think thats the name) and they surprisingly behave very well. But the problem is one is extremely timid, and backs away from anything that moves. Its never bitten us before, even when my sister unknowingly stuck her hand in to pull out a snail that somehow got in there. Is it normal for them to be this timid and shy?

I got some PM's about my red belly so I figured I could take a couple of pictures of him and show everyone c:
He's in my holding tank right now while I clean the 55gallon. He's quite a messy eater with a very wide diet, haha.
Maybe getting two more red belly's here soon from someone who's getting rid of their own and whenever that happens my 55gallon will become another holding tank while I set up my seventy five gallon c:

This isn't the best picture, he wouldn't stop moving around
This is a better picture, really shows off Mr. Chompers red c:

Hello guys. Is it safe to make your own tank decors? Not the store-bought ones. I've seen people get driftwood from lakes and boil it to make it safe. My main tank needs some sort of hiding place for my fish. It's currently being medicated since one of the fish has ich and I don't want to isolate it just to find out the others caught it. Should be done in three days. Any ideas I could use as some sort of cave?

Terracotta pot is safe and you don't necessary need to do anything it. Coconut shell is another that I've seen. Many rocks are also safe to use, like you can use certain glues or silicone to stick them together to make little caves.
