Ok, i know now that u put the crushed coral in ur filter in a media basket, now how much do i change it? do i have to have it the whole time i have the cichlid tank up and running????

Maybe a pair of german blue rams? they are quit peacefull

Why dont u just turn off ur lights, then in 5 minutes drop some blood worms in, the fish wont get them, only ur cories

Ok, the biggest problem im going to have is having the fish get returned... I have like 50 fish, but how could i return such an amount? And what about the crushed coral? should i buy the 15 lb. bag or the 40 lb bag? and do i put the crushed coral in my filter media basket, or as a substrate in...

Ok, thx guys, here will be my plan, first remove all fish besides my khoolies and my pleco, and my bamboo shrimp, then ill add all the pH buffers (I saw crushed coral in my drsfosterandsmith magazine, so that will be the pH buffer) then i will remove my drifftwood, and look for some more rocks i...

so I cant have driftwood? drifftwood is like the main decoratin i have in my tank, and i should remove the corys? and should i take all these fish back to pet-co?

Hi, I have a 60 gallon freshwater tank. Right now in my tank i have these tetras: Neons, Lemons, Pristellas, and Glowlights. I have 3 Pearl Gouramies. I have 6 Khuli Loaches, 6 Albino Cory cats, 1 German Blue ram (who looks really bad, everytime i see him he has black bars going down the...

It could be neon tetra disease..Which isnt curable

so if i were to get 4 males they would fight?

lmao thecatdidit.....

Well when did u purchase them? Cuz all fish usually sell as juveniles and takes like a couple of mounths for them to reach maturity and probably half a year to a year but im not sure...

yeah pristella tetras are very hardy i have 6 of them now in my 60 gallon aquairum they do excellent!

What if hes not mature yet?

really?

All betas do that in the wild but mostly if they had a ditch they would preferably lay there instead of laying in the leaves of plants and such. Bettas just sit in a ditch in the wild and either wait for prey or a mate to come along and so on....

Im sorry, ok now i would do a major water change to your tank before you get anymore fish and u say you still have a guppy in there? Well see how he goes and after about a week or so and if ur guppy looks good u should be able to buy some more neons... First by like 3 and see how they do and so...

Try brushing it off, if it comes off very easily it might be brown algea. Otherwise i woudn't know about anything that could possibly be that besides brown algea.

omg thats the same thing that happend to me! OK heres what i did first i didn't worry about thim for about 3 days untill i tried this. They do spit some out but not anymore at first they did though but i guess they so hungry that they knew that they need to swallow the food cuz thats all they...

Well bacteria can last as long as 2 hours withought water/and or air before it starts to die off and release posions in your tank. Just have ur bacteria pad or w/e kinda biological thing you have in your tank and put it in a lil bucket of tank water. It should be fine. Everything else should...

I heard that the number one causing home aquarium disease; byouncy problems is caused my long term feeding ur fish flakes. I don't know if its true or not but I think it is cuz i read it in my fish book; The Simple Guide To Freshwater Aquariums

lol, I was wondering about the same thing when I got into fish keeping, untill i came across this tip. Water and Glass deflect sound, and when you are having a conversation in the same room your fish are in, supposabley they can't hear a sound because water and glass deflect sound. I normally...

Hi, I was wondering if it would be ok to add some Pearl Gouarmies in my tank with all the fish listed below. I was thinking about getting atleast four of them? Any advice from anyone would be greatly appreciated!

wow, ok u acting more a geek then he is lol. What kind of gouramis are they? What size tank? Water parameters perfect? Maybe he isnt quite mature yet. Does he have a lot of color?

There are no visible signs of sickness? well maybe its an internal disease or something. DO u have any big fish in ur tank if so what kind?

well thats good that ur goldish is healing sounds kinda sad though how its healing but same time it sounds good. Maybe u could fine a 29 gallon aquirum and deck it out with some cool plants or w/e and put ur goldie in there? i think they like to eat a lot of liveplants though, im not sure.

Doesn't matter what kind of filter? Uh not all filters can be adjusted....Maybe hes talking about an external box filter like a penguin bio-wheel. Not all of those kinda filters can be adjusted. But plz correct me if im wrong. Im sorta confused here.

I'm sure that you can feed them sinking shirmp pellots. That foot is mainly for all scanvengers, and bottom dwelling fish, and vertabreas.

well snails are very annoying in a home aquairum but they dont seem to annoy you. Snails reproduce fast just to warn you and more and more will start filling up your tank. I wouldn't worry about snails falling down the drain but if u really want to keep the snails just pull the metal thing in...

lol what kind of filter is it?

well first of all what kind of heater? I dont know if only one 300 watt heater would work and if i was u i would buy 2 300 watt heaters at each side of the tank as u mentioned. Im just saying 2 of them just in case one fails or if one doesnt have enough power to heat the tank so u can put 2 of...

Is your thermometer a stick on glass one? those are quite unaccurate sometimes. If not check your heater. What brand is it? Maybe u should buy a new one if u find out that it was ur heater that killed ur cories.

WOW that really makes me impressed nice tank! :cool:

When male Pearl gouramies get that red spot bu their throat that means that the male is ripe and ready to spawn! you should purchase some water sprite (Floating plant) or something and look up on pearl gouramies courting behavior. Your description on how the pearl's are acting deffinatley...

All Tetras are charicans (Egg-Layers)

A month or so ago i purchased an albino corydora and he Didn't have much top fins but they grew back rapidy in like a week or so! He also had some scales missing at the end of his tail, and those grew back or w/e they do to come back in like a week also. I didnt use any medications. I d k much...

U could always try neons or cardinal tetras. I see some tanks with just angels and cardinals and i ask them if they ever fight and they say no not at all. And it goes the other way around some ppl say that u shouldn't have angels with small fish but i guess its just a matter of a luck. Its up...

This happend in my 60 gallon tank when i first had 6 neons already in there and i introduced 6 more neons a couple weeks after i had my frist dozen. The old neons staretd terrorizing my newly purchased neons. I think this is because every fish is used to its number of speicies it encounters in...

i would like to see your pics. I am very fascinated by planted tanks i think they look really good and someday i want to upgrade to live plants. Curently i have silk plants.

I wouldnt worry about it if u say there are no visible, or physical problems with the golden gourami. That number in that size of a tank sounds good you should get more if you want.
