[AquaticLife] HELP!! My husband won’t stop buying fish!

Thanks Lenny, I will definitely let you know how long he makes it. As far as I can tell he’s healthy, just mad about his tank size, he thumps the other fish with his tail and either eats them or leaves them to die if he doesn’t like them, bad fishy […]

[AquaticLife] HELP!! My husband won’t stop buying fish!

He most likely is stunted right now, but many catfish live long lives and many grow slow so if they are moved to a proper sized tank, they could start growing again. Unfortunately, I just peeked at my own article on fish lifespans and according to my research, “How Long Should Your Fish Live” […]

Oh, the over-sudsing thing happened a couple of years ago while my son was home on vacation. We finally got enough of the Dawn out by refilling the hole in the door with hot water and then soaking it out with paper towels over and over […]

[AquaticLife] Snail snafu

I think something was wrong with that snail… if it actually got stuck on the intake.. or maybe it was just trying to clean the inside of the strainer and got part of it’s foot caught.. like getting a finger caught in a crack and then it started to panic and got sick as a […]

[AquaticLife] An experiment has started…

Major disappointment! No change at all to my tank water. 4 ppm ammonia and 0 ppm nitrates!
Well, my test may indeed have been flawed. Adding fish would not have shot the ammonia up to 4ppm and that might have had an adverse effect on the bacteria. I might have gotten a […]
