    Cloudy water

    Water changes water changes. Don't get impatient sometimes it will take quite a few hours to clean up at the end of the cycle. Not that you want to use it as a "go to move" but the best thing to instantly clear up water is Acurel water clarifier, small red bottle. Works wonders, but I would only...

    How do you stack you aquaclear HOB filters?

    Ammonia spike?

    No offense taken, I just was trying to figure out this spike. I have had all these fish in the same tank together for a few months now. The only recent additions were the jack dempsey which is the smallerst fish in the tank, and blue lobster, which doesnt do much to affect ammonia. All of the...

    Ammonia spike?

    I wasn't relying on this media, just figured it couldnt hurt. Your not supposed to change carbon monthly and spongues every few months? Also, please see the video on my page, these fish are not large at all(yet) they are all juvenile.

    Stocking my 30 gallon

    What about a blood parrot fish? In a 30g you could only fit one, but they have such great personalities and have a bright orange vibrant color if water paramaters are kept good. Mine have gotten along with smaller community fish, and larger aggressive fish, good all around check mine out 29...

    Fresh water eels

    African Rope Fish I see your interest in eels. I had an African rope fish in a tank for about a year and it was fun to watch, it had days where it would hide in the castle coiled up like a snake. When it came out it would swim all around the tank and even come to the top during feeding time...
