Here is the dimension of the tank. so could someone please let me know how many gallons

I had bought a corner tank from our lfs last weekend and the salesperson that deals with the used tanks said that this tank is between a 60 and 70 gl. How can I figure out the gallons on it so I can determine how much sand, rock and etc I will need for it. Thank you for any input on this.

cabezon, thanks I don't touch my rings either, as for the filters, they will be rinsed over and over until the are falling apart. I don't use filter floss at all. As for the decholr I don't use that either as we have well water and should not have chlorine in it.

I was thinking bout the blue water barrels that horse people use for water and feeding.

The RO unit I have is only hooked up to a 5gl holding tank, even though the membrane is rated for 75gpd. As for the water being really cold that is not an issue here in AZ. As for our water the water company in the town that we live in is well water, and not sure what type of filtration they...

WhiteDevil, I did some tests tonight and if I was to mix half tap and half RO then I can get the GH to change with 2 drops and the KH with 3 drops, and the PH down to 7.5 ppm So now my question is how much of a water change should I do at a time to get my GH KH and PH within limits or should I...

mgamer20o0 thanks for the reply, who long will it take for them to hatch?

Ok not sure if these are eggs or what? We do have shrimp and zebra snails in the tank.

Using the nutrafin test for the GH it took 45 drops for the kh it took 15 drops ph is at 8.5 I know the only way to pring this down is by useing part tap and part RO water, so not to drop the PH to low.

Mommytron and BigJim, Thxs for that. As for the parameters are nitrites never fall below 5.0, so how could I get this down to 0, w/o having to mix R/o and tap together to get this.

we replaced the filters since the box for the rena filters say to replace every 3 months. As for the hardness of our water is GH 900 KH 130 not sure if I need to divide or multiple these numbers by anything else? The test kit is the nutrafin brand.

Ok I did find the remains of one cory that had settled under one of the logs in the tank that we could not see. As for the filters I did just change them about 1 1/2 wks ag, the only new thing that I had added was the fluval clearmax which is suppose to remove phosphate, nitrite and nitrate, so...

The temp has been stable around 76.5 Right now the only fish that I have is 3 barb's 2 rasboro's 2 gold algea eater's, 5 bumblebee goby's, and 4 glass shrimp and 3 snails, this tank has been set up for about 9 months

In the last week we have lost 5 fish 3 rainbow's and 2 coray's. I had posted last week about my fish eating my plants and since then we had lost the above fish. Here is the parm for the 90gl tank PH 8 No3 10 NH4 .25 No4 0 the above using the AP test kit GH 900 KH 130 these I used the Nutrafin...

Just bought test kits for PO4 and KH. PO4 = 0 KH = which is the nutrafin brand it took 14 drops to get from blue to green/lime color PH = 8 which I no is real high NH = 0 no3 = 5.0 no2 = 0 so how would I figure the co2 with the ph and kh results?
