I have 2 questions. I have a community tank. I'd like to put 1 larger peaceful fish into the mix. Any suggestions ? Secondly, how many neon tetras are needed to make a good looking school ?

Nutrafin Plant Gro or the full spectrum of Seachem products ? Besides the obvious, ( PRICE ) what would you recommend ? Using Seachem now & thinking of trying CO2 Booster with the Plant Grow. What do you think ?

Any experience having a blue gouramais & a dwarf gouramais in the same tank ?

In my 30, I have 10 zebras 1 bristlenose, 1 dwarf gouramais & 4 corries. I want to add 1 blue gouramais an angel & a sword. Any comments? Any compatibility problems ? Thanks :)

Neither do I.

Agreed Agreed:)

Oh Come On Cool it. Were all adults here, aren't we ?:confused::)

Doing It I am doing that now. Thanks. :)

Guys, Guys, Guys, Calm yourselves. I have taken all your advice into consideration. I am not ignoring you. I'm just trying to go about it in the safest way for my fish. Water changes have been throwing my PH readings into a tailspin. I don't know why. They just are. My tap water tests @ 6.8...

Beat Ya ! Beat Ya ! 64 years young here !:facepalm:

Thanks. :) I did that. My PH still comes out @ 6.8. The PH in my tank this morning was 6.0. Quite a drop from yesterday's 8.8. A couple of fish are showing the effects. I didn't want to do another water change. I figured they didn't need more upset. I tested this morning & it was down to .5...

Not Anymore I am not using the high range anymore. It was way off the chart with the regular one. That is why I checked it with the high range that 1 time.

PH 50% water changes are not working for me. Will have to do smaller ones. Large changes, for some reason, are playing havoc with my PH. Went from 6.2 to 8.8 after my 50%. This is as deadly as ammonia. I'll have to do small water changes, test & get the PH under control. My tap water is 6.8...

RIDDING MY TANK OF AMMONIA !!! THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZY !!!!! So many differing opinions & everyone thinks they have the right one. Am I the only one who doesn't think they have all the answers ? Sorry, guys, just frustrated. :( Hope you understand. I know my goal is 0 ammonia. The differing...
