Hi
Hopefully this is pretty simple....
Im having to medicate my tank (popeye - Interpet Anti Inter Bacteria) the instructions say remove the carbon for 7 days....
Do I store the carbon then put it back in the filter (Fluval 104) or just replace it with new when the time comes ?
If I can store it do I store it dry or in some of the tanks water that I have it in at the moment.
The carbon isnt that old and these are the first 5 fish Ive actually bought (new tank - Fishless cycle - 5 x Balck Widows)
Straight from the off one fish looked unwell and now he has a bulging eye. Ive checked the water chemistry
Amonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - 40
Ph approx. 7
So im assuming that its something the fish already had as the others seem fine.
