How do I grow the bacteria in the filter for cycling?

Thank you for this advice. My mom has a goldfish pond so I guess I'll just give them to her but there wont be any problems like that with my fantails will there?

I have read multiple articles and such about cycling for the ammonia and nitrate levels but I'm having trouble understanding how to do it and I've been doing a 100% water change about every two weeks which is a pain considering it weighs a ton. When I cleaned the tank I just used a scrubby...

That was very helpful, I just discovered that the "ghost shrimp" I bought a couple weeks ago were not in fact "ghost shrimp" I'm glad I caught it in time.

I have just started collecting fish as a hobby and I'm very new at this and have been running into a few issues. In my area there aren't very many places to buy fish. There is Walmart and there's a local pet shop. Walmart's conditions for their fish is awful but they do carry some pretty fish...

white spots or patches usually means ick but I honestly have no clue about your other fish. I'm so sorry :(
