    do african cichlids need auarium salt?

    I normally change my rockscape around every month or so to prevent the territory issue... Just FYI; I'm sure you know that already.:wink:

    Green Spotted Puffer

    Wow... I thought they only got 3" maybe 4" max! I'm slowly getting him into a full SW setup, I knew about that.

    Green Spotted Puffer

    I feed him freeze dried bloodworms, freeze dried baby shrimp, brine shrimp, small snails... I've never tried fiddler crabs. They have to be pretty small right?

    Green Spotted Puffer

    1 tablespoon of salt per gallon, just to get him started on the saltwater transition. Does my water change method have to change when it comes to saltwater?

    Green Spotted Puffer

    I got him last night! I added 1 tblspn per gallon before I picked him up, I used the drip method to acclimate him to the new water. He seems like a happy dude. I also found out that they actually lay down to sleep! Weird. I thought he was dead.

    Green Spotted Puffer

    So, I set up a 10 gallon tank for a GSP and I'm pretty excited. Is a 10 gallon okay for 1 puffer? I read online somewhere that they prefer at least 5-6 gallons per Puffer? I have PFS as a substrate, some big rocks, some fake plants, and a filter that can turn the tank water at least 4 of 5...

    I think I screwed up...

    So live plants helped huh? I don't have the lighting or co2 for plants.

    I think I screwed up...

    Well, I don't think my test kit is expired because... I tested my water this afternoon and the pH is back up to 7.6, so I think I'm on the path to recovery.

    I think I screwed up...

    I found out that adding baking soda will help raise the pH level; then I found out that adding more aeration, and taking the glass lids off will help raise it as well. I think I should have tried the later option first. Did I screw up by adding the baking soda. I added 4Tblspoons to my 55g and...

    Thanks... I will do that tonight. As of right now I am down to ONE dalmation molly and one black molly. I also have a couple of B.A. Tetras and a couple of Hi Fin Tetras. I did a water test a few minutes ago, and found that my pH level is down quite a bit... 6.0 I know that livebearing fish...

    Why are my fish dying!

    I'm @ work now, so I can't give the parameters. I will post them tonight. I think thats the problem... FRITZ. I'm going back to prime. I never had this issue until I switched to FRITZ. When I do a water change I do a gravel vac and it's normally a 35 - 40% water change. I have a Whisper HOB...

    Why are my fish dying!

    Okay... My 55g tank that has been up and running for about 5 months now with no problems has been giving me problems. I've had one dalmation molly die, two adult white mollies and 5 1 mo. Old fry, and my other white molly is not looking good. I don't understand.... I do weekly water...

    Heater?

    Just curious if anyone has an extra heater laying around somewhere? I'll pay for shipping if I need to, prefer someone local. Mine died! I don't feel like buying a new one. Would rather buy it used. Thanks... If not, it never hurts to ask`:silly:

    I hear that Play Sand is very sharp... too sharp for fish, and could tear up your filtration. Try Pool Filter Sand... looks great. I just bought some this afternoon.

    Finally; some pics!

    I just looked @ some pics of tanks with pool filter sand.... WOW... very nice. If I decided to change my substrate whats the best way to do that, concerning the fish obviously. Will the massive change shock the fish should I put them all in my 10 gallon while I'm changing substrate or what?

    Awesome, thanks! I'm not sure what kind of snails I have, they were in the bag with my Anacharis... I'm guessing NERITEs are a type of snail; I look for some.
