    Fizzy water??

    Hey world I cant imagine it's anything major but I can't find info on the forums. Probably cuz I don't know what it's called. When I add new water to my tank on a pwc I notice the water fizzes. Much like when u pour pop into a glass. The top makes little bubbles and it pops up. Also noticed...

    He is looking much better. The white stuff is fading and it looks like he is healing it might be a little bit. Prolly after the cycle. I'll do a 15 gal change tomorrow and see how the ammonia is. Any reason why it isn't dropping? Water changes too small?

    Help. Black Ghost Knife

    So do the 50% with the 50g or with him in the ten... Sry I'm confused I was talking to a guy at the pjs pets nearby and he said i should slow down on the water change as I did a 50% pwc and then a 20% on day 2&3. I was informed I may be taking out too much at a time so I was just freaking out...

    Help. Black Ghost Knife
