  1. How would you both treat with Maracyn? We were told to treat a bit different from the package but Robert must be off today and don't know what to do.

    Here was our message to Robert,

    You helped us the other day getting medicine - Maracyn - for our Sunset Honey Gourami.

    Wanted to be sure we are medicating correctly because what I think what I heard you say might be different from the instructions on the back of the package.

    We are going by your direction of every 2 days do a small water change and then add more of the Maracyn.  And do this for a week. 

    Is that correct?

    Or should we follow the directions on the box which say to add it everyday for 7 days and there is no need to do a water change unless testing the water shows things getting out of the normal ranges. 

    Thanks,

    BTW One of the bumps looks smaller after two days!

     

  2. We have had her for about 6 months. Nothing new added. The pair of them love micro pellets 4 times a week and live blood worms once a week. Temp is about 73 and is a 8.5 aquarium set we got at Aquarium coop which is established, had around 5 years.Use testing strips from the shop so do not now actual PH. Everything on the strip is a ok, but water hardness is a little harder than usual. Will do a large water change and if that doesn't reduce, will remove a little crushed coral in filter bag.

  3. In our tank we have 2 Sunset Honey Gourami's, 2 Green Neon Tertra's, a shrimp and a snail. Also in our 8.5 gallon tank we have a few different plants and a piece of driftwood.  We also change the water in the tank (~30% change) each week.

    Our tank water test is showing that the water is slightly hard, wondering if catappa leaves would help with the hardness and be gentle on our fish.

    Thanks!
