for a black out would wrapping a dark colour sheet around the tank do the trick? Does it not distrub the fish?

I left in enough gravel to just barely cover the bottom, and I did not change the filter. So yes I probably killed some good bacteria but it will come back fast. I was post the readings tomorrow, 1:50 am atm.

Well I took out about 85-90% of the gravel, did a huge water change. and took out the ornaments/plants. My plan is that every day for the next week going to replace half the water. and after that for 1-2 week(s) do 1/4 of the water. Then after that half the water but every other day. I...

Yes that tank was cycled.

Okay last august i bought my 55gal tank and got some community fish over time, and the bigger ones kept dying (angel & Gouramis) well the Glowlights and Zebras lived and i got sick of it and gave them to my bro for his community tank. Before this my water would got all green and cloudy. Algae...

I changed one of the pads, last weekend, and the other 2 weeks before. And Will trying to replace both net weekend at the same time. Once I get a chance to go buy some.

oh sorry posted before I saw you did, Using A whisper 60....

Any idea about the cloudy water?

Okay for the last 2 weeks my heater has been heating the tank up to like 85 degrees then I have to unplug it over night and it drops down to like 74, and Then I plug it back in and it goes back up. even Though I have it set to like 75. It came with the 55gal All Glass Aquarium. and my guess it...

a net??

i changed the one filter last PWC... Maybe time to change the other

white cloudy, I have not added anything in the last couple of days. And I did a PWC about 4 days ago. It's really weird, and kind of frustrated because It makes the tank look bad.

Okay well for about the last 5 days my water has been cloudy all the sudden I have not added any fish recently, and I didn't feed my fish for the last two days to see if it would help. But it just stays cloudy!! Please Help me

Red Flame Gourami And Neon Blue

Well funny thing is I went to go buy a new pleco, but there were not for sale. It had been moved to a tank that said not for sale? (quarantine or reserved?) And then I was like well since I am here might as well buy some fish that going to get eventually.

any comments, going to be posting more pics later today.

i have angels in my 55gal, and my ph is 8.0 and they are fine, as well as my GlowLight tetras, the other fish I have no experience with, hth.

Yeah I am amazed....

that browning of the leaf would be Diatoms, They are harmless, most plecos, and algea eaters wont eat them. They also are very easy to rub off. My tank (55gal) use to have ALOT of them, they are now just starting to go away.

Hey well about a week ago my bristlenose pleco, died. Which I had bought about 2 weeks ago... He seemed VERY shy. I know there nocturnal but he would never come out of the ornament. aswell he only went back to that one. (when and if he came out). Then on saturday I went to the LFS and bought...

Yeah these guys can Hide like theres no tomorrow. Then last night I put in a Algea Tablet for him, and my Glowlights and zebra danios went NUTS.

AS far as i know it just cycles your tank faster, if you did a fishless cycle with just ammonia, and then added all your fish at once I assume the same thing would happen with Bio-Spira, ergo your not suppose to. But I have never used Bio-Spira, so might need to ask someone that has. Sorry about...

I've only had 1 Zebra Danio die, beacuse he was sick when I brought him home. My only of stocking excperince can be read in my thred "My pleco disappeared..." Sure to give you a good laugh. :lol:

No, Everytime you add fish there is a mini cycle that lasts maybe 2-4 days, but if you add that many at once, it will be like started the whole cycle over. and will kill most if not all the fish.
