Ok I appreciate the replies, I will increase the frequency of feeding. I was giving it a pleco wafer every other day , I figured it was getting enough from the tank algae and the uneaten food. Typically how many algae wafer should I be giving it?
I have have replaced the intake tube on my Aqueon quietflow 10 with a 0.5 inch PEX tube. I am thinking about inserting vinyl coated paper clip in the opening to prevent any fishes from getting sucked in— will this be fine?
How far down should filter intake tube be? Should it be at least halfway or should it be as close to the substrate as possible?
...Btw I have a HOB filter.
Ok I will go with PEX since it’s available in blue so it will blend in with my background. Typically how much distance should there be between the intake tube and substrate?
I have an Aqueon 15 gallon column tank and the provided Aqueon Quietflow filter 10 intake tube is too short so I would like to extend the tube. Which tube should I get - PVC or pex?
I have a tank with guppies and danios and I have some issues with algae. Can hydrogen peroxide be used to remove the algae? I have 3% hydrogen peroxide- so how much ml per gallon of tank do I add ? I have no live plants- will addition of live plants reduce algae growth?
