Aquarium Advice Regular
Hey everyone~ Just wanted to share a few thoughts with all the beginners, as I'm sure the experienced folks will be laughing. I bought a fish with Ick un-beknownst to me at the time, and it gave the tank ICK. Well, I bought the medicine and dropped it in as they instructed; followed the package to the letter.
Then when the treatment was over I began cleaning out the bad water and stuff; WELL... It dyed everything green! The rubber that holds the sides of the tank together is dyed green, makes it look like algae, and it dyed the deco I had in their green. I washed it off with hot water, but to no avail. Should I take them out and soak in chlorine bleach? I'm so afraid I won't get it all off and it'll kill my fishes. Should I move the fish to somewhere and chlorine bleach the inside of the tank to get the green out also? Other than that the 10 gallon is fine. Healthy fish!
The other thing was that I bought a small container of Oxi-clean to get some stains out on a rug, and when I read the package it said it could be used for aquariums also. No instructions as to how to do it, but it was listed as a use for it. Anyone use oxi-clean for their fish tank? That's all I'm yapping about for now.... till next time..... ~Melissa~ ````
