    High Ph

    Hey guys, I have just recently moved to a new house and decided to check the water parameters in the house before I did any water changed. Ammonia, Nitrate, and Nitrite are all good but when I got to pH it was at around 8.4ppm. In my old house I had a small Nitrate problem so I had to add some...

    Co2 And Filtration

    Hey, I have had good advice on another forum that is dedicated to aquascaping. From what I've read there is that if you do have the CO2 go through the filter itself it does diffuse the bubbles much better and you get much more CO2 out of it. So it would be beneficial having the CO2 go through...

    Substrate

    Hey guys, I want to start planting on my new tank, which is why I want to switch out my gravel out and put in ADA substrate. My question is, do I just take out the gravel and just put in the substrate? Or do I have to also add another soil before or after it? I know I can add some additives...

    Not Sure What Is Happening To Her.

    It has happen to a couple other fish before I've gotten Ich. Water parameters are all fine the fish has been doing fine for couple months and she just happened to have gotten something and she passed away yesterday :[. There was nothing I could do to help her that I knew.

    Not Sure What Is Happening To Her.

    She just gave birth healthy fry last week. I've had ich and treated it no other fish seems to be flashing or showing any type of white spots. I'm still treating the tank. Could that be the problem? I'm using Kordon Ich Attack.

    White Spot Diseases Or Something Else?

    Have you noticed him flashing? Like getting close to a rock and trying to scratch himself? I currently have Ich in my tank and I'm treating it :P. Some of my fish flash but they don't have white spots yet.

    Nitrite Levels

    Decided to check on the levels one last time before starting the water change. From what the levels said last night they were at 0 nitrite. Now after filling up around 7ish gallons I decide to check it again and the levels are at 0.50 :S . No idea what just happened but I'm not going to use...

    Nitrite Levels

    Nitrite levels still haven't dropped over night, I just filled a 5 gallon container with my fridge water. Nitrite levels from that water are at 0 so it should be safe to put into my fish tank. Not sure if 5 gallons would be enough might fill up my other 5 gallon container so that it would be...

    Nitrite Levels

    Alrighty, I'll take another test on the tank tomorrow :]. I got some water from my fridge and tested it and the Nitrite is at 0 there. Not sure if I'll use that though since it takes like 30 minutes to fill up a gallon xD. I'll probably have to buy a filter for my tap.

    Nitrite Levels

    Hey guys n gals, I had just recently been hit with Ich in my fish tank and started dosing my fish tank with Kordon Ich Attack. I was doing my water change just today(about 25%-30%) and the Nitrite level in my fish tank were 0.25. I then did a big water change today to see if that would help...

    Panda Platy Going For The Light.

Not sure if doing that was a good idea but I've had a hectic week x.x, had family come over from out of the country and I've been busy with work and making sure the family isn't to mad at me for not helping them take them...

    Panda Platy Going For The Light.

    Its just laying there on the some big rocks I put in the middle of some plants that were also placed. I guess I could say she looks thin o.O. I tried feeding her like I said before but she didn't eat much. I took out the food so it doesn't get the water dirty. 68 F hmm, I'm currently at 72. I...
