Here is some pics of my aquarium.

36 Gallons Bow Front Aquarium with Amazon Sword Plant in the back of aquarium and Java Fern in the middle of aquarium and thinking putting an Micro Sword Plamt in front of the aquarium with all Carib Sea soil. With livestock fish. My water parameters is GH 30 ppm KH 0 ppm pH 7.0 NO2 10 ppm NO3...

For sure they gave me the Red & White Ryukin Goldfish. Minimum is 30 gallons for them. Yeah they create a mess always have to clean up a lot. My mother doesn’t know what she is talking about. She wanted to get a smaller tank. I do have a 70 gallon tank but the fish died. I had three lasted three...

I tested the water General Hardness 120 KH 40/80 pH 7.5 NO2 0 NO3 0 NH3/NH4 8+ ppm

Yes, I tested in order to remove the bacterial bloom floating on the water and falling on the gravel substrate I need to vacuum. I’m waiting tomorrow for another device to clean this up. And the vacuum I don’t available but it will be coming Saturday.

Thanks Marineland Penguin Power Filter 20 to 30 gallon 150 gph plus my Top Fin IF40 Internal Filter 30 to 40 gallons is 140 gph = 290 gph. I’ll get another power filter added to it.

I’m using Marineland 20 to 30 gallon 150 gph Power Filter w/Multi-Stage Filtration and added Aqueon Quietflow E Internal Power Filter up to 40 gallons. You see it in the picture and you see the tail end for the other power filter. Amazon Sword plant planted the back of the aquarium on the right...

I had taken care of three aquariums. This is my most recent one. My nitrate and nitrites are low at 0 to 20 ppm and my my ammonia level is now at 4 ppm. My pH is at 7.5 to 8.0 my general hardness at 60 to 120 ppm carbonate hardness is at 120 to 180 ppm. Specifically nitrites at 0 to 0.5 ppm and...

Nitrogen cycle I learned about the nitrogen cycle that using a live plant and fish will create waste. It mentions to make periodic water changes and keep a close eye on your fish tank buddies. Nitrates and nitrites and ammonia build up in the tank from waste.
