Since this cloudiness is related to new tank syndrome and bacterial blooms, I don’t think a diatom filter would be advised. We need these bacteria in our tanks and they are just in the water column while looking for a place to call home. I’m not sure a diatom filter would even remove […]
Sounds to me like you should have left it in unless it was rotting and turning brown. Did it look healthy? Did you already throw the extra away or do you still have it to put back into the tank? Plants are always good for the tank and if the plant was well […]
what color of cloudiness are you having for starters? I’m also confused did you add or take out the wisteria to the tank?

A diatom filter would polish the water and remove the cloudyness. Also puregen is suppose to clear the water.
You mention plants, what did you do about the substrate when you cleaned and re-did the tank?

Well I had tear down my tank about a week ago. Sense the cloudiness got so bad that if you placed your hand inside the tank on the glass you could not see it. I lost one of my fish the powder red dwarf gorami before I could tear down the set up and redo […]
As silly as it may sound I have found aqua bid to be an good place to ID plants. There are data bases on line but many times there are renderings. I find an actual photo to be better a better source for me. If you are not going to do […]
Hi Snert, Haven’t seen you in a while, good to see you here. How’s everything in Phoenix? Not really sure of the plant you have in mind, you may want to post a pic of what you have now. A few plants that will do well in hard alkaline water are most […]
Well that’s not quite what I was complaining about, I was complaining because every time I stick my arm, or the python cleaner into the tank I come out covered in duck weed Yeah I looked at pictures of the brochis splendens and I think it’s one of those and […]
After adding the meds I’ve noticed the fish are acting more normal, which is good. Hopefully I don’t lose any more. I won’t be able to replace the peppered cory’s as they don’t have any more at the LFS, they have what appeared to be green aeneus cory’s in, but I could […]
I think I answered most of this in my previous reply a couple of minutes ago but yes, normally, keeping the water in good condition, by doing regular PWC’s, will allow a fish to heal up on its own from fin rot but sometimes, medications are still needed or will help the fish heal up […]
