    So all of my fish died. I had an ammonia problem that I just couldn't kick. I guess I should cycle my tank before getting new fish? I dumped out the water, but do I want to do more than just add new water and put in Prime ammonia and water conditioner? What would be a proper stocking plan for...

    Everyone is dying - cant get ahold of ammonia levels!!!

    Had a 10g with 1 dwarf gourami, 1blk skirt tetra, 3 cardinal tetras, and 2 ottos. About a week ago I found 2 cardinals dead. The people of AA said it was ammonia, because mine was at 0.5. I switched from using Amquel to Prime for ammonia treatment. I then lost both ottos. Today I went to the...

    From 5 to 10 gallons- what to do

    I have a 5 gallon fw and love it! After receiving advice from AA members, I am upgrading to a 10 gallon. My LFS told me to run the 10 for 24 hours and put half of the water from the 5 in there. Then add the fish. What should I really do? :-) thanks

    Nerite snails?

    I have a newer tank (1 month). 5 gallons, 3 Cardinal Tetras, 1 Black skirt Tetra and 1 Blue Dwarf Gourami. I have wanted to put in a snail, just for the heck of it. Would a Nerite snail be ok? My concern is that the fish might eat it (I've heard that can happen) or that the bio-load (which I...

    Red spot on Black Skirt Tetra

    I have a 5 galon freshwater tank with 3 cardinal tetras, one dwarf gourami and one black skirt tetra. Recently, I noticed a red spot on the "chin" of the black skirt. Is this a big deal? It looks like a small blood blister, if on a human a suppose. Thanks for the help!:fish2:
