this strange fungus stuff just appeared out of the blue

I fill it up very slowly. Usually takes about 15 minutes to siphon water out and about 25 to put it back in. Its a very bizarre thing going on. I have had tanks for 20 years and never had this...

Nitrates are between 5 and 10.

Hello,

Everytime i do a water change, i do about 50% every other week, the water clouds up really bad a few hours later and remains cloudy for about 12 hours. I am growing out 4 peacock bass in...

thats an awesome idea, never thought of that. So just put the 30 gallon filter in the 75 gallon tank for a few weeks then transfer it to the 30? Then i can add all the fish?

will do. So is adding only 5 tetras at a time a good idea?

That is good to know because i am going to set up my old 30 gallon tank for my room. I will do a fishless cycle this time to try it out. This will be a cory cat and tetra tank.

I will post...

well all the remianing fish, including the bottom dwellers are doing fine. I never let the ammonia get higher than .25ppm by doing regular water changes of up to 25% as needed. Ended up being...

What i may have to do is get maybe a 50 gallon hang on filter to add extra biological media.

Thanks for all the quick responses everyone. I use a dechlorinator that takes care of chlorine and chloramine. I am also a little suprised that the nitrite spiked, then went down to 0, but the...

i would imagine hes going to demolish your fish

thanks for all the help everyone

I have always been on well water at my old house and have never really had to worry about chlorine. Now that i moved into a new house on baltimore city water, I was wondering, when adding new water...

the tank will be cycled for sure. Im gonna use a little water from one of my buddies aquariums to make it go a little faster

Thanks a bunch for that info. I will go with the cardinals for sure. I was also thinking the clowns may not work out. I will go with kuhlis instead. It might be a good idea to get either the...

Hello there,

I am new to the forum, but just getting back into aquariums after a hiatus of a few years. My 75 gallon tank is arriving next wednesday and i have been working on a stock list that...
