I am using Ehfisubstrate in both trays. In the top tray there are also a handful of ceramic rings mixed in. Bayshore water is a little on the hard side but usually never changes. I have a fire station on the next road so the are constantly opening up the hydrants to […]
What are you using for media in the Eheim? Have you ever tested your KH and/or DH? If so, how have they changed, if at all? Do you measure your pH at approximately the same time of day?

Don’t ever feed them? What in the world are they eating? One reason I ask is some fish could live long by eating what’s overgrown in your tank if there’s enough of it.
Also, it would be very helpful if you could tell us your ammonia, nitrate and nitrite levels. […]
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 […]
I was hoping someone could answer me a few questions. I have a 55 gallon saltwater tank that I have had running for a good few months now. it was an established tank when I got it, yet very unkempt! aside from the few fatalities which from what I hear is par […]
A few weeks back, I posted about my sick tank. After losing 2 angels, an albino rainbow shark and a platty the tank seemed to settle down. All levels (ammonia, nitrates and nitrites) tested at zero, even when everything was dying. After no deaths for several weeks, I purchased 4 zebra danios […]
None of the things you mentioned seem to apply in this case. The pH is always stable at 7.4 without any stabilizing agents. The aquarium gets a PWC every week with very good gravel cleaning. There are no live plants in the tank. It has very little algae. The canister filter was cleaned on Tuesday. […]
Dennis, Sorry to hear of the koi loss. Were your koi looking and acting normal before the lawn service did their applications? What kind of chemical applications have they been applying?? Some lawn services include a bug killer in their applications and that could very well be the cause of your dying […]
Whens the last time you did a water change? What are your waters parameters meaning, have you tested your water lately? What are the dying of? What did they look like? How were they acting? You have to give a bit more info than they died and you dont know why.
Thanks _\Steve//_ (file://\Steve//) Sorry for the long delay - but, after I returned from buying a new bucket and to my LFS to get the filter, my herd of fry was greatly reduced. Since my tank is well planted and I still had a […]
