I have never seen anything this bad. Can't even see my fish!! The water is green and murky.. I don't do anything different than I do with my other tanks.. So y the problem? How do I fix it? It's a 75 with an under tank sump. Fresh water cichlid tank.

I will look for gel food

Im the type that believes anythings possible, and if he could recover I want to allow him the chance. Clove oil sounds like the best thing when it comes to that tho. Ill try n get a pic on here..

I have a black moor (sp?) who swims upside down. He's been doing this for maybe two and a half months. He used to be able to control it a little but now he floats upside down and can not even submerge him self. He eats this way too. I have tried peas... He has a lump growing off of his belly now...

Mine died in days without land access. Gotta watch the store u get info from. I have one out of like 7 here that is educated on stuff

My flowerhorn is in a 75 with a mix of 10 other smaller cichlids.. They all do fine... Personally I put fish in and if I don't think it will work or have doubts, I just watch and make sure.. If they begin to bully a particular fish I pull the bullied fish and find a better suited tank for him...

Snakeheads equal creepy

I meant illegal in the north at the beginning of that paragraph

Wait? U think piranha are legal in the north cause they wouldn't survive? You got that sentence backwards bud. They would survive in south so they are illegal in areas where thru could thrive

Thank ya :) and thanks to all who participated.

I do have the same fish. Where can I read and learn of this nitrogen cycle?

I agree with all of you really I see things from different views :) thanks for all your responses. Would you really go as far as to say that I am not z good fish keeper though dud to the fact that I put my fish into their tank with out cycling? They are so happy acting.. And like I said, they...

I knew this would be slightly touchy and that's why I am trying to approach it delicately lol. I appreciate both your answers and don't mean for my response to be argumentative, but do mean to try n make sense of things. First let me say. I don't value any life of anything less than another. I...

First off, I don't mean to offend or pick at anyone.. But I have to know.. Why is it that on these aquarium forums I hear so much about cycling your tank and all this. People literally spending weeks if not up to two months "cycling" their new tanks.. When I mention I got my 75 gal ready in 2...

You put a fish in your sump? Under the tank? Is that healthy? Or humane for that matter lol?

Yeah I like the big structure to be where you moved it to. Great job I like the layout

Very nice looking!

I recommend checking craigslist rather than buying new. I got me a 75 with stand and all including a nice canister filter.. All fir 200 bucks

Thank you for the advice

Wish I knew the difference... Lol

Is there a standard or rule of thumb? Like how many gallons per inch of fish? I heard something like this once.. Think the guy said a gallon for every inch of fish but that can't be right.. I prefer my tanks be non overcrowded.. Someone get back to me, thanks

Honestly I don't know the difference. We want bright fish. We picked up a bright yellow one with black on his top fin as well as a bright solid orange one. Also got a flowerhorn cichlid. Found out the flowerhorn is vicious lol. Within five hours he killed 3 xray tetras in my 30 gallon tank where...

I've done piranha, Oscar, red tail cat, and just about every freshwater fish in between. I have never done a pure cichlid tank though. So as my wife and I are setting up the tank, what should we know about these guys? Tank mates, food, temp, how many in a 75g tank, any other dos and donts...
