That looks like a flower. You can just leave it.

After New Years should be fine

Oh yeah and it kind of goes without saying that as soon as you move the filter over the fish should move over pretty quickly after that.

All the advice given so far has been great. I would add that in addition to moving the filter, probably without cleaning it for a while, that you also move all of the substrate and decor from the smaller tank. I would also just leave the old filter on the new tank indefinitely. Of course you...

Pet discounters sells the replacement case for aqua clears and sells lots of filter parts. http://www.petdiscounters.com/A-16120-AquaClear-Filter-Case--30--150_p_14529.html I have purchased several items from them and they are a reputable seller.

I never thought twice about doing water changes. I just do regular water changes the way I always do with no problems.

Oh by the way, I like your pond it's very nice. I hope you realize that I am not trying to be negative but rather just throwing ideas out at you.

I can't see why they wouldn't be breeding again right now. I would imagine that once there is a new female ready the males will be ready again. I think you will be seeing babies produced all the time if you have several females. White clouds like to make babies. I think your idea of emptying the...

Ok so here are my concerns: Concrete leaching into the pond raising ph and hardness. (if it's old and has been outside a long time then prob not a big concern). White clouds overflowing into the lower pond and being eaten by the goldfish. An easy way to get water out of the system (don't...

Yeah it looks fine. Probably just a plump female. You said really fat, so I figured the worst, but the fish looks ok.

Also what filtration are you going to use? Will rain be be able to overflow your ponds?

Looks pretty cool. 2 questions: what is your pond liner made of and how thick is it? Are your pavers made out of concrete?

Textile aquarium lowell. Fish are healthy. The owner is well versed in all the swear words.

I have a ton. I mean like over 30 aqua clear filters. All of them have been running for years. Never once have I needed to replace a motor. Very often they won't start after a power outage. I take the cover off the filter, move the the u tube to the slow flow rate which will expose the impeller...

I don't see any pics

Yikes. Looks like dropsy. You could try separating the fish and treating with maracyn plus. This is the only medication I have used that has been successful at treating dropsy. Dropsy is not a disease but rather a symptom that could be caused by a number of things such as organ failure or a...

Petsmart should sell fluval edge sponge prefilters that are designer for exactly this purpose. Google fluval edge pre filter sponge to see exactly what to look for. You could remove the strainer from the intake entirely if it is too long and wouldn't be covered by the pre filter. I make sure to...

Yes it is possible. Glo fish Is just a zebra danio with some jellyfish DNA. They don't really get pregnant however. The females can get plump with eggs. Danios can also have dropsy which is retaining water for any number of bad reasons. Dropsy is a symptom not a disease and is often fatal...

Glad to see it worked out for you.

It will be little consolation to them knowing they are your favorite fish as they get eaten alive ;)

I think Cory eggs may be too tough for cherry shrimp to penetrate. I googled it and It seems that most people are saying it should be fine. It might even be good because the shrimp can eat the eggs once they go bad which might help the good ones from being fungused. I have had cories spawn...

Don't over think it. I'm sure if they laid eggs that there are plenty in there that are fine. you have already done the hard part in moving the adults. Now just watch and wait and enjoy. The fry will absorb their egg sac and then start eating all the little micro organisms on the plants. Once...

Are you using a styrofoam cup that has been cut in half and floated and taped in position from above the water line to hold his nest?

Multies don't need a separate tank for fry. I purchased 4 in 2009. I can't count them all now. I have at least 70 of them. I have my colony in a 36 gallon bow front with Caribsea cichlid sand a few rocks and around 30 escargot shells that I purchased from EBay.
