Aquarium Advice Newbie
While I was away for the holiday my husband fed the fish. He fed them too much and bought them more food- not the kind I usually buy -Wardley Essentials. I was gone about 6 days. When I got home the tank was cloudy and had a slime on everything- glass the castle and the filter. I cleaned the tank the day after I got back. I put in a new charcoal filter bag and it got better. I just cleaned the tank again today and there was still some slime. I put in a new sponge filter. My question is this: Is the new filters going to clear things up or should I be doing something else also.
Another question I have is that I would like to add some more gravel to the bottom of the tank. I have had the tank for about 1 year and the gravel seems to be disappearing. How do I do this? Obviously wash the gravel, but can the fish be in the tank or should I take them out for awhile? Any other things that I am not thinking of too. Thanks in advance of the help!
