    Preventative Methods for Possible Ich Symptoms?

    I understand that you're having trouble with water changes but honestly clean water is the best preventative measure against disease. You will probably continue to have frustrating issues come up like diseases, cloudy water, ect. I wish your goldies luck. Have any spots shown up yet?

    Preventative Methods for Possible Ich Symptoms?

    Correct me if I'm wrong here but wouldn't a partial water change and gravel vac first be wise before treating? That way you reduce the amount of ich living in the tank immediately.

    Got $100 Petsmart gift certificate.

    How about on their website? Perhaps they sell more there than in store.

    What are these?

    Thank you for the reply. I suspected planaria but didn't think a one week old tank could develop them that quickly. Do you think they hitched a ride from the pet store?

    What are these?

    I just set up a brand new 60 gallon this week. I took a HOB filter from my established 72 gallon and all tests ran good so I added 5 neon tetras. The fish are fine but I've spotted numerous small worm like things swimming around. They are way too tiny to photograph. They are white, as thin as...

    Cloudy Water Has Returned - At My Wits' End...Is Purigen the Answer?

    Please don't take this the wrong way but it seems to be a very simple thing here. You will have cloudy water unless you vacuum the poop out of the gravel. There is no magical way around it.

    Chasing eachother to death?

    Can fish chase each other to death? I have two male swordtails that, for a few weeks now, have been chasing each other endlessly. All water parameters are good (0, 0, .10) with weekly pwc. My tank is a 72 gallon with 10 various platy, 4 cory, and a snowball pleco. Today I find the one that did...

    Can I cheat?

    Perfect! Thank you for the welcome and the advice. If I got the thumbs up from you veterans my plan was to have one old and one new filter on each tank.

    Can I cheat?

    I have an established 72 gallon that I was fortunate to get with the existing filter and substrate. We just transferred and filled with water. It's been running for 4 months with no issues such as deaths, disease, or number spikes. I added an additional HOB filter because I thought, what the...
