I’m just getting in on this after \Steve’s// reply but one thing I noticed is that Kuradi mentioned putting in new carbon BUT DO NOT ADD CARBON while you are treating with any medicines and ALSO remove the old carbon. You don’t want the carbon removing the medicine. Your medicine’s instructions should also […]
Hi Marlene,
I’m not sure why.. probably a Yahoo Groups glitch.. but I just got your emailed post from yesterday. I see DebR has replied also and she is right. Do NOT get any other fish. Goldfish in a 33G tank will be a LOT of work to keep the tank in good condition. […]

It appears that sodium bisulfate (note the lack of the meta prefix) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) are used as dechlor agents, along […]

In membrane and ion exchange systems, they prevent the degradation of certain membranes or resins, which are sensitive to oxidizing agents. It should be noted that […]
The larger New World Cichlids are one of the groups of fish being more aware (or, more “observant, as you put it) of their environment. This Family of more advanced fish is more reactive as a whole, to external stimuli. One of the most important senses these fish use […]
The white specks on him did have a consistency of a sugar granuale so my first impression was Ick. The injury behind his eye is a missing scale. Any other spots are just overexposure like the one in front of his eye. There is really nothing there. After reading the link that […]
The pic is in the file section. Its called angelfishwound. Sorry the pic is so big but I just got Windows Vista and everything on it sucks…. I meant I havent learned how to use it properly yet.
Anyway the little white dots on his side are attached to him. That area […]
Sure does, and what do you mean by ” Brrrrr.. could get chilly! ”? First, everyone knows it doesn’t get cold in New Orleans in the winter. \Steve//
