Hey guys, Usually at night, one or two of them would scratch themselves against the gravel. I've seen one or two white spots on a couple of my goldies that are much larger than what ich should be so i'm guessing it's not ich because i've seen ich before, this doesn't look like ich to me. Could...

Hey guys, just wondering how do you guys go about dechlorinate freshly added water when you do your water change. Do you just add tap water straight into the tank first with fishes in there then add dechlorinate chemical? Will this hurt the fishes temporarily? Or do you add dechlorinate chemical...

Hey guys, I finally dug up a pond for myself around 500 gal. I'm thinking eventually dirts and debrises will settle at the bottom. How do you guys clean the bottom of your pond? TIA.

Hey guys, I'm thinking of purchasing a big piece of pondliner from BIGAL and dig up a hole or maybe build a brick wall up from the ground and lay that pondliner over and use that as a pond for now until i get some more $ for the pump and filter. Do you guys think it's okay to do that for...

Who in there right mind would think those fishes are pretty?!?! I think it's so cruel to breed them carry the 2 big air sacs like that for the rest of their life. Poor fishes. What do you guys think?

I'm thinking all I need is to dig a big hole, buy liner, water pump, and bio-filter with UV. Is that all? BTW, one more question on the side. FOr the liner, must i get one piece big enough for the size of the hole right? Like for a really big hole, then it requires a really big sheet of liner...

Hi guys, can a pair of Koi be kept in, let's say, 75 gal aquarium? I've always wanted to do this but don't know if it is feasible since all i've seen is Koi in pond. How many can it holds? Oh yeah, can they co-exist with goldfishes? Thx a lot guys. I'm a total newbie in this hobby. :D
