Thanks, Lenny. You and Steve have given me enough info to get started. I also just remembered that I still have that tenite tubing that never got to be a water bridge. I bought 4 end caps to go with it, so I may just […]

Is is ok to feed my Koi’s Tilapia grower feed???????

HI.
IF YOU FEED THEM WITH RAW SHRIMPS, THE FISHY (MALANSANG) SLIM MIGHT CAUSE THE WATER FOULD ODOR.

[AquaticLife] What plants are best for removal of Nitrites and Nitrates? And other questions.

Ike Lenny, I am not sure what you mean by CO3 levels unless you are talking about CaCO3, calcium carbonate, in which case your readings are not a problem.
Your dwarf water lily is a dwarf. If you had a “normal” sized water lily, your 20 gallon tank would not be large enough for one leaf, […]

Angels Please help???

It’s never a good idea to add chemicals (tablets, etc.) of any sort unless it’s absolutely necessary. With doing a PWC (and I wish I knew how much), you ammonia should be down from 1.0 ppm unless your cycle is not working well enough to convert the ammonia that is being given off by […]

Would thin cotton socks work to put the crushed coral in? They are brand new just pulled out of the bag… I didn’t like the style and never wore them. I can use a zip tie to tie them shut.

Okay I will put some in one of the giant filter bags and maybe fold it over or something for something to use for now, it’s time for a filter cleaning anyways, might as well add it while I’m in there LOL. How much more should I add since I put […]

I want to get my pH where it is closer to my tapwater baseline so I won’t stress out the fish too much doing PWC’s. So to do that I’m going to have to maintain a higher KH and GH correct?
