Goal of this thread: Should I turn on my warming aquarium light for my fish when I'm feeding them? Hello, I notice that many fish eat less in the colder water than warmer warmer (provided both temperatures of water fall into the appropriate temperature ranges which the fish needs to happily...

Hello, As we know, male Bettas are typically not a good idea to keep together in the same connected water reservoir. They'll fight, die and invite all sorts of problems when they become aggressive towards other fish (like fin nipping tetras) My question is concerned with behavior conditioning...

Oh yeah? Snails chew bone matter? Out of preference or if there is nothing else to eat they will?

I got one. You can get them in the US through WalMart.com for 90 bucks + s/h. Much cheaper than elsewhere, even eBay (look for yourself!). Always glad to spread the word about biOrbs.

Searching, I've read that Water is chlorinated through two possible processes: 1. Chlorinate water by adding liquid chlorine. 2. Chlorinate water by spraying water with gaseous chlorine. Also, I found the chemical added is Sodium Hypochlorate...

No. At least, knowing me, not yet. ;) I have a biOrb aquarium though. www.reef-one.com Well, the reason I posted in Saltwater (and it's really a naughty reason) is that the most posts and most thread views happen in this forum.

I don't know, that's why I'm asking around and trying to get the facts. =)

Yes, closed aquarium system. I didn't know that's what the methodology was for no water changes- so: thank you. I'll adopt the changes into my main post too, should anyone else read it. Electrolite supplements? Awesome. I can't wait for my fish to be an athlete. Also, tetrin, knowing that I'm...

Aware with some of those problems, I proposed intaking multiple parameters (I'm sure, many are missing) which would aid in creating a calculator to estimate these food dosage. Of course, calculation can be empiricly confirmed. "Wow, the fish ate that in 4 minutes." or "Darn, it didn't eat...
