Bump. Thanks for the replies. I have not cleaned this in 10 months, everything still lives except my gouramies :( All my fault I think. Do I change any media like charcol or any of that? When you say you rince in tank water, do you mean, after you take it from the tank during water change...

Can anyone assist with questions about the Fluval 304: What parts of the filter should be cared for and how often? Also, what should not be messed with. I have the manual but it does not make it easy to determine what should be replaced and what is even in my filter. It has been...

I have a 26gal. bow front tank with a pea gravel substrate and some good flat rocks. I also had some plants. However I saw a planted tank at a lfs (fins and feathers in Broadlands (Ashburn, VA) and LOVED it. I have 2 10 gal tanks that are empty. I thought, if I clean them out, move over as much...

Well, I think the water change, and the medicine killed my fish. He was fine for a long time until I started screwing around with his environment. He isnt dead but he is swimming upside down. I am am sure, he isnt trying out for the fish circus.

Nitrate 40+ Nitrite 0 PH 6 Ammonia 0-.25 I just did a 40% water change AFTER I did my tests. I took my two gouramis out in a container using the same water they were in while doing the water change. I put them back in after. To create less disruption for them. I also picked...

Kind of like Hyrules and his sick red one ( http://www.aquariumadvice.com/viewtopic.php?t=73308 ) mine is also sick. I need to setup a place for him to quarentine and get better but I don't have a second tank setup. Not sure I can set one up without having to cyle it. Here is the info: I have...

?? I was not worried about the cray at all. I was worried about the fish. Unless you meant the fish were in no danger because the cray was small. Does not matter either way, hes dead now.

UHG. I did not know there was a filter. I actually was filtering my own text :) My bad!

I came home to find what looked like a BIG ass roach (2" by 1" round) in my Fluval bin (a clear bin my filter resides in for safty sake). I looked in there and was like UHG! WHAT IS THAT?! Then looked again and was like WHAT?! OMG *beep*! Looked at my tank like I was going to see another one...

Thanks anyway, but he is no longer in that tank. I found him on the floor today after work. Actually I found him in my clear bin that my Fluval sits in (for emergencies and leaks). He must have got out of the back cause the top was closed. I don't know how long he was in (out rather) but i...

Mine has finnaly found his own little borrow as well. He used to use the rock in the back corner as a cave, but I think it might have been too light during the day. Anyway, he has finnaly dug out under the back of the flat rocks and backed himself in. Very fun to check him out. I think he is one...

Thank you everyone for all the GREAT compliments. I am sad to say my tank is not that pretty anymore. My damn lawnmower (crayfish) took all the plants down excet for the tall grass looking plant in back. However I am glad to say he has shed his shell one time which was pretty scary at first (I...

This is not my ad - FYI - Ran across this ad in the Washingtondc.craigslist.org - the guy is in Annandale, VA if you are interested. Saltwater Fish (( Chocolate Chip Star Fish))) - $10 Reply to: anon-78939358@craigslist.org Date: 2005-06-15, 7:51AM EDT Nice healthy Chocolate Chip Star Fish...

Just as the topic says, thanks.

Hey, I did not know these guys did this. I did not see my crayfish anywhere in my tank and looked from the side and saw a shell. But I did not know it was just a shell, I thought the guy just croaked, could not figure out from what. SO I went to put it out and realized it was just his shell...

I figure as long as I keep the little sucker fed with vegis and maybe some meat, he wont go after more food. Who knows.

Big yes, I knew 10+ holy crap, no I did not. I don't plan on keeping him past 4-5" and by then, I might have a larger tank anyway.

Thanks, I do/did have some grasses but not right in front. I don't know that I will keep it when it gets more than another inch large. I do have a 10gal tank but it has my beta in it. I really don't want another tank. Done! Little crapper!!!! :evil: Thats what I have for my betta. I did...

The heater has been perfect for me. I don't know what temp it is on, but i dont use the gauge on it. I use my thermometer. It is right where I want it, thanks for the heads up though.

Here is the pleco (hope thats the right name for this guy) and several others including a better shot of my crawfish who seems to be getting along just fine (while im around) with my other guys. They are too fast for him anyway. Plus they always swim right down past his head either checkin him...

I see. cough www.veirs.net cough ICK never coughed up a URL before....not pleasant. :mrgreen:

I don't but will take one. He is a small guy. I also love to watch the crawfish. He has tried to grab the pleco, but was too slow. He is also very small. The crawfish body is about the size of a cocktail weenier. His claws are tiny so they wont grab many fish. He has however mowed down all...

did you see this one? http://veirs.org/photos/fish/may_tank_1280x.jpg

I don't know if they are. I was told if they can grab a small fish, they will eat it. He has been zero aggressive since yesterday, may just be cause hes new I don't know. All evening they did nothing but swim up to the crayfish and all he did was look at them. No defensive claws in the air or...
