Hi Al: My Corydoras breed and lay eggs like maniacs. What seems to trigger this in them is one or two large (50 percent) water changes with dechlorinated water that is just a little cooler than the water you have in your tank. The more experience they get laying eggs, the more […]
A 5G bucket or igloo type ice chest will work for several smaller goldfish for a short trip. Just make sure she slowly acclimates them to her pond… not just dumping them in. Whether you use a 5G bucket or a cooler, if it’s been used for something maybe not good for your […]
I’m re-homing some goldfish to my co-workers pond and am wondering what is the best way to transport them? I’m not sure how many she’s taking. Can I just put some in a 5-gallon bucket of pond water? How many can I put in there? She only lives a few […]
A 25-30G mini-pond isn’t very much for outdoor use. The water will be subject to drastic temperature swings that a larger volume would be better able to handle.
If you had a plant like a palm or other thick crowned plant, you could have one or more of them next to the “pond” to provide […]
I am moving from NYS to SC in a month. I am going to bring some of my fish with me. I used to ship them across the country and sometimes they were in bags for 5+ days so I figure they’ll be ok with me. I am putting […]

Hi Caroline, What you are thinking, and what Lenny is substantiating should work out well — this effectively will keep the air on the surface of you water, insde the bags, semi-pressurized so that the room air with paint fumes cannot access your tank water. You should emphasize to […]

I was curious - and not really wanting to start the lawnmower - so I did a bit of looking on google…. The first Asian I found showed a LOT of open area - especially on the substrate.
Really, though, I suppose there is no ONE Asian biotope - some keep Loaches in […]
