I have a 24 US-gallon tank, it used to look really good, great fish, wood and rocks, etc...but because of my schooling career, I really let it get out of hand. (I know, I am very ashamed)
The tank water is a browny/reddish colour, because of the wood I'm assuming. when I do water changes this becomes less of a problem, but its just so hard to see what's going on. the fish are only visible when the light is on.
I've got this weird weed-like plant that grows on my wood and rocks very rapidly. It doesn't look so bad, but I'm wondering if its disease causing or what.
I currently have a very small amount of fish, 1 medium-large silver dollar, 1 aggressive silver danio, 1 neon tetra, and one other type of tetra, forget what kind.
I used to have a school of tiger barbs, albino rainbow shark, and a few more...but the have all just disappeared. most of them didn't even turn up any corpses.
I recently tried to add more fish, but they just disappeared as well. Why is this happening?
Any new plant i try to add to the tank just dies. Somehow the plants leaves just get ripped out and it just dies...have no idea why.
My snail population is huge however.
Does anybody have any advise?
How can i fix this mess, should i start over? what...please I need help
