I can't. I couldn't find any stores. There's a thread with more info about my situation. I am using Android to type, so I cannot link to it. EDIT: Now that I'm back at home, I can properly provide the link, here.

Can simple, nonstop water agitation help reduce chloramines or chlorine?

Just keep doing water changes, either 30% to max 50% on the safe side. Check.

I have a little surplus of my fish food, a large bag of media filter, water pump, a broken tank lamp, all of them bought from my used-to-be local aquarium store before it went bankrupted. So, it can take a while. This I totally agree. The only places where I can see aquarium tanks are where...

Thanks for everyone's help.

To jcolon: This is the problem. I couldn't even test, because I don't have a testing kit. And people here don't even know what is a testing kit...:ermm: I don't know how to say this, but it's the truth. Gasping at the surface, darting around the tank, red gills, heavy breathing, and...

I don't know how the water got to half of the tank's total volume. And unfortunately, I don't have anything that is useful to treat tap water within a short time span. And these are good answers for my brother. Thanks.

My younger brother asked me this question, and I don't know the answer. Will a fish survive with 1 half tank of its old, gotten-used-to water and 1 half tank of new, clean water?

Our local aquarium store closed down, and the clerk told me the aquarium market is losing its grip. That was a year ago. Now, I don't see these kinds of store anywhere near my home. How should I check my tank's water condition without using the water testing kits? I don't want to buy the...

What if constant rapid light changes were to occur near the fish, like a tank lamp flickering on and off? I found an old fish tank lamp with broken contacts and broken plug, and thought I should try using it temporarily.

I have a freshwater tank with just 1 large common goldfish. The tank is placed next to the wall, where there is little light. The light level is about the same as a bedroom with the windows covered with a medium thickness of curtain. It still has light, but somewhat dim. I've noticed that my...

Here are two pictures. What is it?

I couldn't get any pictures for it, due to the angle of viewing. It looks like a small scale oil spill in the ocean, except the oil itself is white. It appears whenever I do a partial water change in my tank, filled with one type of plant. I don't know what plant it is. It only grows leaves...

I sure do know what everything here says are true. Anyway, thanks for these advices here in this thread. It makes a good combination.

Hm...not enough money. I will see what I can get from both sources (local aquarium store and other places around the world). If I had more problems, I'll try asking for advice. Resources here are different than those out there, and it's difficult to compare which is better. If this is put into...

Alright, maybe if we knew what the unit was used, we wouldn't be freaking out about the electric motor. Thanks for the info. :D Yes, NTD stands for New Taiwan Dollars, and I'm in Taiwan. The location should pop up at the side... And thanks for the compliment.

After 1 full day, no idea what happened. Only thing I saw were: the fish were eating, lots of spiders were popping up, dead wasp, no frogs, a lot of leaves, and that's it. General Tonic is an All-Purpose Medicine for Tropical and Freshwater fish. Most people said that I need to pour one of...

I asked my local aquarium clerk, and he said that I don't have to rely on test kits a lot. Most of the time, he recommends, I should either change the water, or add anti-chlorine/general tonic into the aquarium tank, and that will be it. The clerk also mentioned that he has done all of these...

I poured 30 c.c. anti-chlorine and 30 c.c. general tonic into an outdoor pond. The water level wasn't what it used to be, so I had measured it to about 150 gallons or so. I poured both of them into the pond at the same time, and was wondering what will happen to the fish that were in the pond...

Looking at a lot of these threads, I have no knowledge about test kits. 1. How do you determine water parameters with a test kit? Comparing them to a graph, or seeing how many grain particles left in a small measuring cup? 2. Do we need to buy a lot of these test kits? Where is a video that...

1. Not considering any water parameters, when fish are in a pond with not-so-murky water (still visibly clear in some areas of the pond), are they okay with it? (Just worrying about fish sucking in mud particles.) 2. In a newly-stocked outdoor pond aquarium, with newly-stocked fish, how long do...

I meant the mud. The water is fine, there are plenty of tadpoles in there... I'll add more water to it.
