How much water should he be changing at a time and how often? And this is great news by the way, cant wait to tell him.

Ok so my friend has a 36g bow with one Oscar that's about 7-8in long. He just bought a 70g Aqua clear filter for it but his tank is always cloudy. He was unaware about the whole cycling process so I gave him one of my old filter medias but his tank is still cloudy days later. I really don't...

The problem is that there is 1 person to run and do other things. I'm a dep. manager at walmart and at my store in PA the manager and the employees have to take care of paper goods, chemical and pets. And theres only 2 employees and the manager. So there is not one person to just take care of...

The water was checked and the filter is changed on it, and yes its well water ill have to buy some drift wood since I don't like using a lot of chemicals in my tank. Prime is good enough lol. Thanks for the help guys

Does anybody know what that white blotch is on his scales?

My Oranda goldfish has loss of color on the one side. I have 2 goldfish in a 29 gallon tank(fully cycled) with an aquaclear 70 + and aquaclear 20. I am currently treating my Oranda goldfish for Ick, my other goldfish(calico telescope goldfish) is completely fine. Im slowly raising the temp to...

Do you think I added to much crushed coral? should I take some out?

After having problems with my Ph I put crushed coral in my tank. My PH went from 6.4 to 8+ in about 1-2days do you think this could of caused my 1 fish to get ICk? I noticed my Oranda swimming oddly yesterday but I thought he was just beeing a goofball but when I woke up today he had about...

I was looking at videos online and saw a thing about homemade goldfish food. I would love to give this a try but I think you need a blender which I dont have, but is there any that dont require a blender. Im looking for something that I can feed my goldfish everyday. Maybe a big batch to last me...

I tested my Ph today and it was at 6.2 so I added a bag of crushed coral since my tap water is around 7.4. My goldfish has a new buddy though, a calico telescope goldfish Mohawk since he has black stripes on his top fins, hes doing well but I think the current is to strong for him, he seems to...

I always love the African Ciclid the blue ones are awsome, I love goldfish but If i didnt have a goldfish I would get a blue ciclid or an Oscar (:

I guess everybody has their own feeding habbits, Might have to get my own, I love my fish, maybe more than my cat haha but I never had fish before so Im trying to figure out what is best for the fish because I dont want him to have problems later down the line because of feeding habbits.

Ok so I moved my 1goldfish from his 10gallon to a new 29gallon fish tank. Everything is fine but I dont think hes producing enough ammonia to keep my bacteria alive. Hes been in there for 3 days now and ammonia is 0 but also my NitrAtes are 0 as well which is odd because there usually 10ppm. I...

what I did was dose to about 1-2ppm just to keep the good bacteria alive. The day before fish or the day of getting fish do a 100% water change to get NitrAtes lower than 20ppm. Then of course stop dosing when you get the fish., and enjoy!

I will start feeding him a little more, I only have floating pellets but will look into the sinking kind. He always goes to the top for food so will he not notice the food at the bottom? Looking into maybe TetraFin Sinking Mini Sticks ? they sink slowly. I will also look into the frozen shrimp...

thnx for the input, I never had a goldfish live for more than a week or 2(Due to not cycling) they all got ick and died...and the fact that I had 6 goldfish in a 10gallon. So I lucky I found this site because its been about a week and my fish is still goin strong and looks healthy.

Hi everyone! So I have a goldfish named Midas, hes an Oranda goldfish(black/blue) but anyways, I love watching him swim hes a little guy, maybe 1.5inch(that includes his tail). How much should I be feeding him pellet wise? I give him 2pellets a day. Is that enough for him? He always seems still...

Its amazing what an extra 20gallon does to a goldfish. I have 1goldfish in a 29 gallon tank(moved from the 10gallon) and WOW!He is in heaven. He swims around the tank, plays in the bubbles and even play in the current. The only concern I have is that when I woke up to go to work around 5am he...
