    Just Need A Bit Of Expert Advice

    i dont think you have much choice about fish in cycle. everyday stan will be sitting in ammonia within an hr of changing the water. put him in the bigger tank and keep on top of 50percent water changes daily for the new tank and check ammonia levels daily aswell.

    Pets At Home

    The staff are only as good/knowledgeable as the training that is given to them. they should be making an effort to train themselves aswell. an hours reading at night would give them the basics they need but it seems alot of them cant be bothered to eduacate themselves. not just pets at home...

    Established Tank. Big Problems

    as an update. the ammonia is leveling off and in 24hrs it usually stays at less than 0.25ppm so i change 40-50percent water each evening i'm now showing low level of 0.1ppm nitrite so at least the ammo bugs are working nicely.

    Gravel From Another Tank Help Please

    i would of crammed as much of the new gravel as i could into the filter as well as leaving the other media in the filter and i would have thought you'd have a cycled tank in 2 weeks. leaving it on the tank floor will spread the bacteria around just a lot slower. tell lfs to clear off and find...

    My Black Moor Goldfish' Eyes Are Falling Out

    Established Tank. Big Problems

    i changed 60 ltrs late last night and the ammo is now showing 0 and the nitrite is at 0.1mg/l. so it looks like the zeolite/carbon filter is removing the ammonia. but if the zeolite removes the ammonia then the filter bacteria wont multiply as there is no food for them. so it looks like i need...

    i have a 205 so anything i can place in the basskets would be great. even foam and noodles or any mixture would be perfect i can come anytime day or night, whatever is best for you. if i got some media i could relax a little bit as i know id be going in the right direction.
