Is it a good idea to get a couple of snails in to my tank? I have one "O" and would like to add more life in to my tank. The ph is 7.0-7.2. Is it possible to do? What do snails need to stay alive, what food?

hi all! I got some new pics of my new tank with fish in it. Here is the link>>>>> http://community.webshots.com/user/tomcat4teen 8)

Wow, Thanks. It seems to be the same in my case. Today I transferred my fish to a new tank; I also added another 10-15 gallons from an old tank. My readings today were as perfect as yesterday and the day before that. He seems happy now. Although he is not exploring yet, but did eat and swims...

Thanks! I'll be sure to keep you comments in mind when purchasing one.

Can a gardening hose be used to fill up your water tank.

I would use a fishless cycle too. However I don't have time for that since my oscar is in need of immediate transfer.

I'm afraid that with feeders will come the disease. I added something called "Cycle" it's supposedly should jump start it by providing bacteria that decrease ammonia and nitrite levels. I was told to let the tank sit for 2 days and let the fish in.

Yean, but it's been only 4 days since i've set it up. Is it possible that it will cycle that fast? I didn't add any chemicals to help it cycle and I didn't add any fish either. some say I have to add fish first to start the cycle and the nitrates and ammonia are 0 is because there was no fish...

Thanks. I did my water test in a new tank today. Here it is: Temperature = 79F Ph =7.0-7.2 Ammonia =0pph Nitrite =0pph. What else I have to run the test for? Is it safe to transfer my fish now?

I can't wait for a month. I have to transfer my oscar as soon as possible.

This forrum sucks bigtime. Noone knows #### around here!

Gee, thanks for all the help. I thought forums were made to help people.

Ok, I just got a new 55-gallon tank for my Oscar. I already filled it up and got the gravel in. I also transferred one of the rocks (on the left) to my new tank and added about 10-15 gallons from my old one. I also got a net full of gravel from my old 30-gallon tank and stock it in to the new...

I don't think you understood me rite. The spots a voluntary color changes that Oscar changes himself depending on the mood or whatever the reason... here is the link to a pic with drawings that help to explain coloration..(it is not my fish, it's a pic I found on the net of a similar in color...

no, there is no other fish in the tank. I did not do a water change after the black out, however i did one after this happened. Plus they said that only if you lost water for any time while the blackout, you should not drink it and boil it first. I did not loose any water pressure for any...

I did a water change after the fish started to go crazy. I don't use any household products near the tank! there is no way anything toxic might have gotten inside the tank.

Tank and the set up is about 2 years old. levels are normal. WTF is wrong with my fish? First time in 2 years that this has happened! Anyone had the similar experience?

I have an Oscar. He just started to swim very fast all around the tank, hitting everything on the way. Walls, rocks, filter. He makes these fast rapid movements from side to side hitting walls. How He's quiet, but turned almost on his side and floating almost on top and breading hard. What's the...
