i've just been given a huge fish tank, they have told me:
it's been in storage for quite a few years, has had gold fish in, and has had treatment for fish diseases like fish white spot/ich.
they have given various equipment and chemicals for treatments which have probably been up in there attic for a long time too, would they still be viable?
theres:
half used Interpet Anti white spot
Sealed Interpet Anti white spot
fresh water Anti Fungi
Tetra : Fungi Stop Full and sealed
Tetra : Fungi Stop half full
King British Safe Water
King British Safe Guard
Aquarium Silicone sealant
i'm guessing that these are all at least 4-5 years old, but have no expiration date on them.
the tank itself is very dirty, and the seals are green because of the white spot treatment (which i've been told by the previous owner), how could i go about cleaning the tank and the hood?
and and tips on how to reseal, as one of the corners needs a complete corner from bottom to top redone as it's in poor condition.
I have also been given a pump/filter, a load of gravel (that is dry), some bog wood, bowls, sponges (cleaning), nets and plastic plants. i'd really appreciate if someone could tell me the best way to clean these!?
the tank must be atlest 17 years old judgeing by some of the tubs that were in there's sell by date, should i redo all the seals or would the silicone still be good, it actually looks in pretty good condition except for the one part that i'm goign to redo.
