Hi Sam,
There is no “rule”, whether it’s 1″ per gallon or 2 gallons per fish that works… except for slim-bodied fish that stay under 3″ as full grown adults. For example, a 10″ Oscar certainly can’t be kept in 2 gallons of water, nor will 10 gallons of water be sufficient…. more like […]
What time of day did you test the pH? Was it first thing in the morning? Was it later in the day? Do you have any other test results for ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, GH, KH?
We went through this recently with someone else so yours may be the same situation.
Do you have live plants […]

Thought I’d share with the group my near loss of pond, recovery, and lesson learned. Specs. 1,700 Gal. pond, Performance Pro 1/4-49 pump, Ultima II 2,000 filter and Aqua UV 80W. Aloha Oregon, near Portland. 6 total KOI about 100″.
Trouble began when the water was more green than it should have been. […]

Thank you all for the info…I looked up what a Ram Cichlid was and my fish looks exactly like them but it a little bit rounder. Unfortunately I have not been able to get a picture of her because she is always hiding in her cave and only comes out I think […]
Thanks Sue, I’ll keep an eye on her. Her lip looked a little better last night.

our home depot now only sells China pumps. This spring I bougt one 500gph pump for a fountain and it lasted about 2 months, I do have mag drive pumps by Danner which I have used for over 10 years and never had a failure of one of these pumps. They may cast a few […]
Hi, Getting a 50 gallon tank is a good idea. 10 gallon tanks are only beginner tanks because of the cost. A 50 gallon tank will be much easier to maintain than a 10 gallon tank is. That may sound funny.. Its very true. Your snails are a good problem. They cling to the tank […]
Hi,
Wow!…It was very nice of you to take time out and reply to my concerns. 1) I do not know the name of the grass, however I will call the aquarium store Monday to inquire. (They are closed on Sundays). 2) Description of snails: Brown. Activity: They seem to […]
