I change about 40% of water vaccuming the gravel every week.

I noticed my Oscar have one cloudy eye, but he still act very normal and eat. what are some ways to treat it? Its Malafix good enough? or what other method I can try?

I can't find anyone to come to my house to feed the fish, thats why I ask my lfs to keep it. Maybe I can put some very hardy fish in there for 3 weeks, would it keep the good bacteria alive? what are some good choices?

In August, I will be going for a vacation for 3 weeks. my lfs would help me keep all the fish that I have. but then if I took out all the fish, then all the tanks will need to be cycle again, is that right? What should I do? I dont want to cycle all the tank again after I come back from the...

I have 3 tiger barbs with a Managunese Cichlid. The tiger barbs are like 1.5" big when I got them 3 months ago. They didnt look like they have growth any bigger still, I dont know why I got the tiger barbs and Managunese at the same time. The Managunese was like 1.5" big as well and now a...

I have kept the 3" rainbiw sharks with my 1.5" lemon tetras and 2" gold barbs for almost a year already with no problem and aggression. I change 30% of the water weekly and I vaccum the gravel. Few days ago I added a baby 1" flowerhorn and the rainbow shark became so aggressive and chase the...

How come the black arowana are more rare than the sliver? Are there any behaviour differences? Which one are more aggressive?

I think it would be safer to put pictus catfish with the Oscar, since they are fast. I think pictus can grow to 6 inches and more. They grow fast just like oscar.

Tin Foil Barbs get big like 10", so I dont think its a good idea in a 10 gallon tank.

I want to add one more fish in my 75 gallon with my 7" Oscar and 3" male Convict. What are some nice colorful fish or bottom dweller that I can add??

I might keep them in the 15 gallon for awhile coz I want to feed them first and make sure they are not sick, then I will feed it to my Oscar and turtles

thanks I will try use all those methods

How many Rosy Red feeders I can put in a 15 gallon?? Would 12 be too much??? Can I just use a Sponge Filter??

I have a 15 gallon tank that have not been used for a very long time. There are some much dirt and white stuffs on the tank now. How do I clean and what product do I use to clean it??? thanks

I guess you should try rearranging the rocks, caves and the plastic plants in the 29 gal. I guess try not to put any corys with rainbow shark coz my rainbow shark killed 3 corys before. The bigger the shark the more aggressive they become.
