Hi
I have a 60L tank with 2 small goldfish. They are healthy but I want to make sure the oxygen levels are high enough.
I'm not using the venturi attachment with my filter because it produces too large a current in the water. My filter is positioned near the top of the water so that the expelled water is causing movement on the surface. Does this help increase oxygen levels? The filter instructions say to position it lower in the tank but I just wanted to make sure.
Also, can I assume that oxy-shells don't have any real effect? I have seen air stones - do you recommend me using one?
Do air stones need to fit onto a filter where the water is expelled, or can they simply sit in the water?
Thanks.
