    Vacation

    I'm currently working out the plans. I don't have anyone nearby who keeps fish. I'm thinking of moving the 29g to one of my friend's house and ask him to feed couple of pellets every other day. And only top off once right in the middle of my vacation period. I know I can trust the person...

    Project fun - equip a 20L or 29

    If the intake tube is submerged fully in the water, then no priming is required. Which means you need to have the water almost to the brim. I noticed that accidentally. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    tank cleaning

    I would agree, using soap might leave some residue. Better go with vinegar as others say. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Dwarf Gourami Deaths (4-month-old, 45-gal tank)

    The reason why I asked is you mentioned that you added bacteria. But there was no info (or I missed) on cycle completion. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Was your tank cycled? If not I would think your fish died during the cycling process. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Oranda feeding

    My Orandas are now 60+grams each (2). Based on the guidelines found on the net, it seems like I've to feed at least 1% - 2% of their body weight. I weighed new life spectrum 1 mm pellets and it counts to 30 pellets for 1%. I'm not sure if it is correct or am I doing some mistakes. Basically...

    How to Improve Big Pet Store Chains

    In my short experience I've been to 3 LFS 3 ******** and 2 *****stores. Of which only 1 ******* was good enough for me yo even stand there and watch the fish. And that's where I got my Orandas. I don't even want to talk about *****. And the LFS near my house for some reason always has sick...

    How to Improve Big Pet Store Chains

    Add longer shelf time and fewer demand. One point I'm not understanding is why there is a bashing on businesses saying they are behind $$$. Of course the reason why they exist is $$$. Even there are so many Charity organizations exist purely to make money. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium...

    Can I turn off the air pump at night? Please read.

    The cost of running an air pump should be negligible in this hobby. You don't want to risk some lives for that. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    How to Improve Big Pet Store Chains

    That would be a great thing if you can achieve. IMO if you could focus on key issues first, rather than trying to make it 100% perfect might be a better way to go. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    What is your maintenance schedule?

    Once a week about 30%. I'm relatively new (<6 months). Until now I did not clean the filter. It works fine so far. I've filter floss wrapped around the intake and change them weekly. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Tank setup

    Thanks for your comments. I don't normally use the color changing mode. I just did that for video. I use only white normally. Wrt the tunnel, both fish use that regularly. Unfortunately, they move during night or mostly when I'm away. But time to time they do hangout in the tunnel. Sent...
