Do a 50% water change for starters. Is his respiration rate up a lot, if so it could be a protozoan problem, Maybe a gill parasite . Use Protozin as directed on container. If it is what it sounds like it progresses rapidly.

If they are close to the lights they may get too much heat . I read in another post where some people use styrofoam to float the eggs on. They will not hatch in the water so maybe you could move them to a corner of the hood where they dont get too much heat. They need to stay damp but not wet.

Clamped fins can be caused by several things and is not a disease itself. The best thing to try would be a 35% to 50 % water change . The discoloration could be caused by stress or maybe a fungal problem. Combinations of formalin and malachite green will treat most fungal and some bacterial...

Leave them where they were laid. These eggs hatch out of water. Takes around 14 to 18 days or so. Good Luck!

Hi, It sure sounds like ich if he is rubbing and scratching. quinine hydrochloride at 30 mg per liter will take care of it. Raise the tank temp to about 85 deg F for about 2 weeks after you add the meds. Ich gets killed in its free swimming phase. Higher temps speed up the ich life cycle...

Your aquarium seems to be cycling normally. A dose of Bio-Spira would probably help things along. Live plants will use nitrates and of course nothing replaces those partial water changes. Waste is broken down as follows, Ammonia to nitrites and nitrites to nitrates and then water changes. since...

A small school of rummy nose tetra would look good. and of course a small school of neon or cardinal tetra would look nice. You could put about three cory cats in the tank, they are really cool little fish and they spawn readily in clean water. add another phantom tetra and your set. All these...

No matter what type filter you go with just make sure you cover the main three types of filteration. Mechanical (ex. Foam), Chemical (ex. Carbon), and biological (ex ceramic rings or Bio-wheels). Each aspect has a big part of complete filteration. Just takes a lot of research. I really do love...

I use to breed Red Cherry Shrimp and sell them online and at auction sites. I also delivered to local petshops. The Kordon Breather Bags do work very well. They actually take up less space than conventional bags. Less water is necessary which helped with shipping weight/costs. They worked well...

I put it in a big pot and bring to a boil , turn off heat and let sit for about 30 mins.

I have been using Penguin power filters for years but decided to try something different. I started using a canister filter . I love it and wish I had made the change years earlier. I got an API Filstar xp for up to 75 gallons for my 44 gallon freshwater corner tank. The water is so clear now...

Yes they are very interesting indeed , if Oscar the Oscar gets mad at me He will go to the back corner of the tank and pout . I have to pat him on the head and give him a shrimp then he is ok. Spoiled rotten . Lol

Canister Filters The one I went with is an API Filstar. It works great and is easy to clean. It has the quick disconnects so there is no mess or repriming. Fluval, Marineland and Eheim are also reliable according to reviews. They all work basically the same. If it is in your budget I would get...

Hello, I had an Aquatop digital on a grow out tank for fry and it worked very well for several years. It did eventually quit working and if I remember correctly I used it for about 4 years. This brand was not very popular when they first came out. I think they are slowly proving themselves as...

It is normal for this time of year. I started using a humidifier in my house last year and that helped the evaporation a little. Nothin to worry about for sure if it is not leaking.

Hi, with a tank that large my thoughts would be a good canister filter. They move a lot of water and the options you have for media are outstanding. I went from a large hang on power filter to a canister filter just a while ago and I wish I had done it sooner. Just research a lot before you buy...

I have a 8 inch Tiger Oscar that will do the same thing occassionally. You know how territorial they can be . Tiger Oscars are very moody but I don't know about Jewel Cichlids.
