You can feed your Betta a few pellets or a very small pinch of flake food daily (follow the directions on the food container.) If you want to make your Betta really happy, you can feed him a variety of live foods http://www.cbsbettas.org/livefood.html including frozen brine shrimp, and even mosquito larvae or fruit […]
Since all tanks have been running for a year, then it should not have been nitrogen cycle based. Slow down on the PWC’s and lets try to figure out what’s wrong.
It sounds like something died in your 150G and started decaying and that put the BIG burden on your biological filtration so you saw […]
hi,im a newbie with fish ponds , my water was dirty and i put some clarifier in it ,now my gold fish are dying and koi wont eat.help!
I change mine when they look dirty. The airstones are only $0.23, so I pick up a few every time I go to the fish store.
I was going to build one like on Lenny’s blog but my hubby works with metal and has an inside hook up for getting a metal frame built, so I figured I’d wait and have something fancy but I’m sure getting impatient, LOL.

I can also add a point of view from having 2 angel’s that keep breeding. They are VERY secure in their fish tank, in fact they’re so secure they’ll attack anything that appears to be an intruder Including hands and arms LOL. I don’t see them as needing […]
Hey Lenny, Thanks for the tips. You sure do know your stuff, even if you do live in N’Orleans. Steve

Live plants, I’m presuming?
Almost all fish like plants in their tanks except for certain species (many African cichlids, for example) that prefer rocks.
Yes, live plants can change the water chemistry but usually in a good way if the plants are healthy. Plants will remove CO2 from the water when the lights are on and […]
Hmm, well I’d say that next time you should silicone them to the bottom of the tank, but then they’re not move-able at all… Perhaps you could silicone them to a flat rock?

While I do NOT condone overstocking a tank, I understand it does happen. What the fish keeper needs to do, when their tank is overstocked, is do more frequent PWC’s, gravel vacuuming and filter cleaning to remove the fish waste and dilute the pollution in the water. This “pollution” includes DOC’s (dissolved organic compounds […]
