I was reading your post the same day i noticed my fish had it, Sorry you lost so many fish. I really hope I caught it in time . The fish that have the white spot were a birthday gift for my daughter and if we loose them it would be awfull. :unsure:

Hope you have a lovely christmas and an even better new year !!!!! :)

Thank you wilder you have been a great help, and answered all of my questions along with some extra infomation. Thank you backtotropical too :good: Remember Wilder keep smiling :nod:

I hope you are better now , keep smiling. The treatment that I have used says after the first dose wait 4 days then dose again then wait 7 days and then do a water change, It will do my head in waiting that long but what ever works I will do.

Or im really sorry to here it got you down. Before I got my new tank I had 3 tanks running, It was time consuming ,but i loved it. I moved them to their new tank almost 2 weeks ago if the white spot was caused by stress due to the move wouldnt it have shown sooner?

I water change about 30% every 3-4 days

I tend to do water changes every 3-4 days because my BN pleco loves blood worms and they tend to make the water smell. Do you think I caught the white spot in time? no other symptoms just the sugar grain like spots.

I do my best to, could it be the temperature fluctuation following water changes?

Stats were done yesterday followed by a water change they read the same as they have done for months ph-7 nitrite-0, nitrate-0, ammonia 0 A friend told me it may be because i do water changes too often , I recently transfered all fish to a new tank and the 3 three fish that seem to have the...

Yes its a filter thanks Luketendo :rolleyes:

Thanks loads. I have just posted a topic in emergency part or this forum please would you have a look and give me some info ,

Will this not cause a whirlwind effect on the water and stress the fish?

I have just had my first out break of white spot in my tank, 3 of the fish I have seem to have 4-6 spots each, I have treated the whole tank and none of the other fish seem to have any. Would you say I have caught this early? should I expect fish losses? :shout:

Would it be ok to run a Fluval 3 and a Fluval 2 together on opposite sides of the tank with the out flow speed turned down ? Its my sisters tank and its 130L , She is just running the Fluval 2 along side the Fluval 3 while the media in the Fluval 3 matures ( the Fluval 2 has been running for...

Can u over filter a tank? One of my LFS told me that if you over filter you will take the good bacteria out of the water, to which i replied I thought the benifical bacteria lives in the filter media and gravel, I was shot down rather quickly, as he was rather sure over filtering would kill the...

would she be ok to run my old Fluval2 with it ?

Is a fluval 3 enough for 130L , my mate gave me 1 for my older sisters tank. It says on the box it does 130 L but i thought u have to have a bigger turn over ? :blink:

I have a new 150L up and running I have my Fluval 2 from my other tank running and another Fluval 2 (both with filter media from mature tanks )running with it while i wait for my new Fluval 4 to arrive. Is this enough untill it comes? It is stocked with 2 Black Angels,2 Honey Gourami,5 Lemmon...

I dont know the number but could u not 118118 it?

Hi my new tank came today complete with filter, I have never seen a filter like this . I sits in the hood of the tank with a long pole leading to the bottom and a pole with holes in that runs inside the hood, some one said it sounds like a trickle filter can any one tell me how to use it and...

Hi, are these filters any good and what media do use with them? :blink:

Hi I have just spoke to someone and they said it was a trickle filter, does anyone know what filter sponge I should use?

I still cant this filter HELP! This is it I hope this works.

I will try it now thanks

Hi,my new tank has arrived and it came with a FLMAX-350L/H (HY301) I think its supposed to fit into the hood of the tank, what filter sponge should i use. I have a mature fiter to run along side it, I have never seen a filter like this and it doesnt have instructions. I hope some 1 can help...

I wouldnt say he/she has a lot of fish, sharks i would definately say will out grow that tank, if it was mine I wolud rehome 2 of the Angels and the sharks and get 3 corys. If you keep them all just keep on top your water changes and make sure the water quality is good. Even better use the...

Thanks you thats what I was thinking I just wanted to be sure. I cant wait for it to be delivered, it should have been here today. I hope it comes soon :rolleyes:

Thanks for your replies the angels and neons have been kept together bekore and I didnt have any problems with them. When moving to a different tank is it best to use the fresh conditioned water or to use some of the older tank water?

I have a fluval 2 in my other tank im going to put that in the new tank with the new filter , I do my water changes every 3 days anyway so them 2 filters should be fine I think.Some of The stocking will also come from my other tanks ; 2 Black Angels, 4 Corys(I think thats what they are called) 2...

Hi peeps, I have just purchased a 150L tank to go with my other 3 LOL,(I did bid on a nice 4 foot 240L but the seller removed it at the last minute, I was rather gutted, but as my other half was buying it I couldnt complain MUCH) Its comes with a Flmax 350L/H filter is this enough filteration ...

cheers :good:

I agree :good:

would you say thats a good size for a few clown loach?

How many gallons is 240L, I have just seen a lovely one. :drool:

what it is priced at it sells at !

Both males & females are priced the same at both LFS that i use. However the bigger store i sometimes use sells them with a £1 difference. Its not the customers fault and chances are if they were told they have them wrongly priced or in the mixed tanks they wouldnt get charged any different...

Cheers for the replies. :good:

LOL ! Go on you know you want a bigger 1. They are much more fun. My son loves feeding blood worm 2 his frogs, my daughter on the other hand runs a mile. :hyper: :lol:

Thats really good, prob would have cost you £50+ just for the heater , filter , lighting. Ihave seen them on E-Bay and Amazon for £70+ for the whole thing including tank (new), but you got to be able to pick up yourself. If you look for second hand on E-Bay and Amazon you can get bigger ones...

Does that include heater, filter, lighting etc?
