You are having new tank syndrome. Btw, Cardinal tetra are sensitive to water parameters. It is not recommend to have this fish in new setup tank.
I lost 7 out of 10 last time even my tank was cycle for 6 months. 7 x rm3.5 go to drain..

cardinal tetra and neon still not doing so well... the number down to 4 last night.
I think my black neon are stable, the number stay at 5 for few days already.
I see they chasing each other everyday
didn't feed them for few days and they are eating anything that float it the water xD
I even saw they try to catch mosquito that stop on water surface
but I feel like rescaping now
those plant I having are seriously too big for a 2feet...
lol...
and my java fern turn darkish, guess 55watt for a 50L tank is really too strong for java

pic 3
cant recal the name...non aquatic plant...but perhaps u can proof me wrong
pic 4
brown algae...normal for early setup
no otto? just rub it using ur finger...or cut it off...new fresh leaf will grow...
sisaiko kor, maybe u are right with the pic 3 too
I think they are mondo grass, definitely not an aquatic plant
hmm... but they does look like "Cyperus helferi"
so i still don't know
