I use an API test kit. I always rinse them in aquarium water first including the caps. I have only gotten the big of a drop once, but with a couple of water changes it appears to be coming back up. The reason I thought it was the filter was because I […]
Rebecca, what kind of fountain pump did you have before? Did you have that pump sitting right on the bottom of the pond, or sitting on some type of platform? If your pond bottom is really loose muck, you might want to sit your replacement on top of a […]
I’ve never owned them but according to this reputable profile and care sheet, http://fish.mongabay.com/species/Metynnis_argenteus.html, they are egg scatterers. Do you have a gravel substrate on the bottom? It would seem that most of the eggs would fall down between the crevices and be safe from scavenging by the corys. The profile also […]

I also called a local pet store and they sell them for around that price too.
I just don’t have a set up for him at all, I […]
