I have been on Amazon looking for a back-up power supply for my 5-gallon Fish Tank with one Betta Fish to keep a 100 watt heater to stay on. I am too confused on what to buy. I lose power when a tree falls and when it snows a lot in the winter.

Yes they do fine with both. A 35-55 gallon Tank would be appropriate and plenty of hiding spaces. Odd Number Groups of females 5 or more all babies added in at the same time will work the easiest with Never 👎 adding another one later down the road is best.

I have a seasoned Filter sitting in Tank Water. Is there a way to preserve the filter?

The USA Government is mandating masks in some states mandating the Vaccine K-12 in California. We have 100,000’s of illegal immigrants that are sick pouring in and invading our Country, but our Government doesn’t care about the Americans.

I live in East Tennessee and we had only 20 Deaths. We stayed open and have a No Mask Mandate. I never caught the virus, my father did and said he was sick like the Flu.

I retired the same sand do to in time having mold issues and algae and found the #1 substrate now is Fluval Stratum. You can’t mix it with other substrate though. ?

A large Pleco. He was great in the beginning cleaned my Algae filled tank overnight, but he was messy constantly pooping and I was constantly cleaning up after him. My Ammonia levels would spike. Then I ended up with all my fish diseased with bacterial and fungal infections.

Testing my water and using Seachems Prime in the beginnin. Smaller water changes only once a week. Then I got to understand how ph levels were so important.

Yes I do. My Cats have reacted to spirits. Not weird at all. Funny how a fish can react though. I grew up in a home that had a child Indian spirit. Not an evil one, but he played with my younger brother who was 2 years old.

What helped me was adding low light plants, and only using Spring Water with Proper PH. I would only feed the size of the fishes eye ball. Use a Turkey Baster immediately after each feeding and do only 10-15% water Changes weekly. If your Ammonia is raised double dose Seachem’s Prime every other...

I had one of their glass heaters malfunction and kill my fish so I called them and they mailed me their New Aqueon Pro. Maybe call them again with better luck.

I use Seachem’s I use Proper PH it keeps your PH stable. Seachem’s makes one too.

82 degrees Fahrenheit (28 C) is really too warm even for a Tropical Betta Fish. I try to keep my water between 78-80. Anything over can cause Fungus issues. Can you turn down the Temperature?

Ok , I will. He eats Normally and when I bought him his Cup was so filthy. He is very hungry, but very thin. I decided on General Cure to worm him and started this evening. ?

Because they are Dumb and don’t have a heart. That’s Why! Fish keeping can be a Science always learning and growing to be better and more caring.

Yes I use Misty Natural Spring Water I buy from the Grocery Store and Never use Tap Water. I do use PH Regulators as a quick fix and Use Natural methods as well gradually and still testing PH. PH crashes are very dangerous on the health of the Fish.

PH regulator would help to keep your PH at a Neutral 7.0-7.2 level.

I love Betta Fish and Have experience with Caring for Betta Fish for 10 years. I sometimes have questions on Disease and health of Betta Fish and that is why I joined. Thank you.

Sounds like Ammonia or Nitrite double dose with Seachems Prime every other day. Ammonia will Spike After a Water Change. Seachems Prime helps with Ammonia, Nitrite, and Nitrates. I would stay away from meds.
