Next time just drop the filter media in the tank. It’s not the best thing but will be OK for a few hours.. especially if you have an airstone and put the filter media over/around the air stone so it gets water circulation. The other thing you can do is make sure your filter […]
I noticed awhile back that DFS has a contraption that hooks up to the back/side of the tank and will let out hatched brine shrimp periodically without adding any salt water to the tank, has anyone used this reliably? I considered getting one, but I’ve also seen home made hatcheries online […]
Amber, An air-operated sponge filter would be best (and safest) for Angelfish fry. While a power filter having its intake covered with a sponge barrier may work with those filters having a control to adjust/reduce its flow, without such a provision the fry can still be sucked up against the […]
Tuesday Night Check in (Day 22 of Salt - Day 6 of reduced)
- Tank readings @ 10:30AM: pH: 7.6; Ammonia: slightly under .25ppm; Nitrite: .25ppm; Nitrate: 5 -10ppm - 5G PWC @ 1PM - 6G PWC @ 11:30PM - maintaining salt at 1tsp/G - Added 1tsp […]
Well, if I’m going to want an airstone to feel safe using the Amquel+, I might as well price the Prime while I’m there. No connection between the Amquel+ and the fish growing. That was a side note. I’ve been so focused on the […]
Lowering the water level will help increase the aeration as the outflow from your filter will have a further distance to fall, and while helpful, may not necessarily create near as much surface circulation as would an airstone.
I do not understand what you’re saying. What does using Amquel+ or its […]
Yes, Amquel+ is quite safe to use with PraziPro. Its strictly a chloramine neutralizer which breaks the chlorine — ammonia bond and converts the ammonia to ammonium. Increased amounts are best used with the benefit of added aeration which aids in the safety of process of this conversion, whether […]
