I just got an RO/DI system for my frogs but I know salt water ppl rave about it and fresh water ppl say it really helps with algae, which I have a problem with. Also my city water is crap. Ive seen people mention that if you use RO water you have to reintroduce minerals, which is fine, others...

Managed a pic, his name is Archimedes. Photo dont do him justice, he looks washed out here. Hes a beautiful boy irl

The issue is my province is on stay at home order so i use amazon for most of my pet needs and amazon.ca SUCKS they only have mealfix and pimafix. I have a petsmart nearby which might be able to swing by, but again its a coin toss wether they have anything of use. I couldn't find any ich...

Also going to add some bio support to break down the ammonia.

Bit of an update. Ammonia still at 0.5 I did a physical examination of him. He has a very round belly, and i was wondering again if thats just a flowerhorn thing or if hes bloated. (Again ive seen flowerhorns both with bellies and without) His gills look good as far as i can tell, red but not...

I rinse my filter once a month with aquarium water. Thanks for the suggestions. Ill try them out, see how it goes.

I dont test every day, just occasionally. I use like a test tube kit not the strips so it takes a bit. The amonia test is pretty simple though so i might try testing every day for a week. Ive kept my routine of 1 25% water change a week from my gold fish, perhaps i should do twice a week? I...

Its a 90gallon bare bottom tank. No tank mates. Filter is eheim professionel 3. Its an older model but i know it handles quite a bit above 90 gal. 150 maybe, cant remember how much exactly off the top of my head. Anyway its a beast, and is cycled fine. I do think i tend to overfeed him, he does...

Ph 8 Ammonia 0.50ppm No nitrite 40ppm nitrate Im having some issues with my python and waste right now so the nitrates are high cause of that. Having trouble getting waste outa the tank. New connector coming in a few days and ima do several more water changes. But usualy i have barely detectable...

Hi, Im a new flowerhorn owner, ive had mine for a few months now, and hes growing nicely. Ive noticed though that he pretty much the entire time does this gasping motion with his mouth and gills. He eats great, poops a ton and is active around the aquarium. He does not seem particularly...
