I do remember the first time I dropped a big slice of zucchini in the tank at night for my common pleco, he started gobbling it down and the next morning […]
Good to see that the white spot on Raven has cleared up; one less thing to have to worry about. Goldfish should have no osmotic problems at 1 tsp/G salt, and there’s no need to add any more if the septicemia gets worse. One tsp/G is not much more than […]

Presently I’m using two pumps on my pond.
The waterfall and filter are powered by a older design Diamond Mag Flow pump I had for over 12 years. This pupm looks like a standard sump pump and is rated at 3,700 gph. This pump had turned may a Koi into chopped […]
