Is this to much pump for 2 75 gallon tanks. I have total 10 air outlets on them. What would excess air pressure do? These run 30 watts and that’s 40$ for me run entire years. Or my something in 60watt diaphragm pump 80$ a year. So is medo fine with all back pressure it will have? I don’t want make muffler bleed excessive pressure. I just have no clue about these pumps any advice?

I’d like to add it to aquarium with only 7 air outputs will this hurt the pump being restricted. I’ve read it will idle down if pressure high. A good diaphragm pump will be at least 90watts so in few years this medo pay for it self. If idles down control pressure I bet want use much or 45 at most.

I can’t see ripples from flow because I keep water level so high. I was thinking if used air tap on outflow under water ran little airline out water. I could get outflow blow bubbles. If doesn’t create a suction I could hook air line. but pretty sure I use this tap under water line and run hose up with valve I can get spray some bubbles.

I’ve been in aquariums 40 years always had this problem. Canister will stop million different reasons. So I never notice until water change if working. I have touch them or grab hose feel flow. I was curious is anything rig up to have red green light on 24/7 unless flow stops? Has be flow because it could be powered on and not working.

My goldfish keep getting stuck in it. Can I tear it into like 5 sets and plant? Any clue what it is?

I went with those filters recommended they cheaper then the 3 stage 10 inch 2.5 that’s stupid. So I have 3 stage if count 40 micron spindown. 0 chlorine atm says they last 30k 60k gallons depending on your water. So question is how will I know when carbon is depleted? Will chlorine be in water? I’m sure my sediment filter will clog up I can change it. But how do you know carbon block want pull chlorine out?

I looked in those filters today got 2 first ones sediment that is 20-10-5-1 micron and second is 5 micron carbon. They are hella value compared other 20 inch 4.5 size. And don’t have be changed near as often as the 10 inch ones. if works well I’ll add 3rd one prob best add another carbon block 5 micron or 1 micron?

I’ve been keeping fish off and on 40 years never checked chloramine because when I found out about it I had been keeping fish at least 5 years. So I figured they all be dead if I did have any dodged that bullet. So I guess use chlorine but going start calling them ever few months I guess they could switch over at any time. “Carnahan Aquifer. The City has ten wells that pull from this aquifer. As a final step, our water is chlorinated for disinfection purposes prior to sending it into the distribution system and into your home or business.”

I’d say selling options lfs or not even local anything within 2 hours. Then eBay and aquabid then lastly wholesalers. Idk about heaters I live in Louisiana there never needed for me. If want make any $ breed what’s in demand zebra pleco things people seem always pay stupid for.

I do 50-70% on my 125s weekly but I’ll skip week if I don’t want mess with it. If go by test strips prob ounce ever 4-6 weeks.

So good to not use prime in water if I use 3 stage filter? 5 micron sediment, Granular Activated and Carbon 10 micron. I’ve seen video people have these on drip system. So I’m sure that’s safe but what about 75g change in 125g tank?

Why would saying dealing with hobby breeders be against rules. All of them on aquabid and eBay and that’s approved in guildlines. Just curious

My purchases better be cheap or my wife will climb up in my azz. I’m trying very cost effective it’s solid year till I’ll be done my fish room so just looking for deals. They do have cheaper 30 ppi coarse weighted 5x6 for 70ish gallon sponges 6$ on Amazon but I’ll call aquarium coop the might give bulk discount. id buy from aquarium coop even there just tad more expensive. They do need bulk discount not sales. Say if buy 100 should be cheaper.

Aquabid and eBay you will get healthier fish strait up. Your buying from the person that breeds them. Don’t buy from people that buy from breeders up the price and sell to you. Also when you don’t deal breeder your dealing store handles thousands fish. The ONLY guarantee live arrivals if all die week later that’s on you. Breeder I’m dealing with I had problem 2 fish took 2 weeks to die he refunded me. It wasn’t he’s fought usps lost them for abit but he fixed me up. check there feedback aquabid and eBay and your dealing with 1 person the breeder. I recently brought from guy in Ohio. And I text him personally helps fix any problems. also all sellers on aquabid are on eBay I’d use eBay more buying protection you can get quick refund if try anything.

I personally would rather have better prices and 0 costumer service. But idk why you ever need costumer service unless they mess your order up.they seem pretty solid I’ve had about 10 orders from them packed perfect.

I’m looking buy over 80ish sponges 5x5 size. And only bulk discount I’ve found eBay. I’m in no rush think going wait Black Friday anyway. Lumber prices want be low till November to build my fish room so I’m waiting anyway.

After day fungus clear worked orandas back normal I’ll follow directions let run it’s course. I also used melafix and pimafix there just oil homeopathic cure hippy stuff might work a tad but can’t hurt I’ve always used it with meds.

Well the breeder that got them from been breading forever pretty much master Jedi!!. Use Fungus Clear will fix it made by Jungle. So going to do this I really hate fish sick and I’ve never seen symptoms.

Orandas about 2 months old flashing to top but I haven’t seen rub anything. So not Gil flukes I guess idk it’s white but I’ve never had Gill flukes on fish. But googled lots pictures and see none. So I treated maracyn because rapid breathing and swimming and maybe some blood spots on tail not sure so tiny so not 100%. Nothing looks wrong with it on outside. My waters perfect 125gallon 8 tiny orandas and 4 tiny bristlenose. And it’s planted so 0 0 0 and I still do large water changes every week when I’m bored. https://www.amazon.com/photos/shared/jIfV5GIwThyW5hIlVHBYvA.1fZ-ae4-ukkPsrLjRlCq5b https://www.amazon.com/photos/shared/268NhHfdRiCVAr9WGvOhaA.AvEsO-8mDsm5OsXkMhA6PT

Wood futures have dropped threw bottom give it few months can build exact rack to want way more sturdy out wood

If you have 6 ft aquarium 2ftx2ft fish have hard time finding food. Just showing way I do it fish find every single drop. They all eat out of a bowl.

Betta I’ve thrown 2 in a tank and in about minute they killed each other. So what could be worse then total destruction. they are the FIGHTING FISH even my 70 mother know this.

Well I have 2 aquarium 125 gallon 8 Thai orandas in each. Aquariums 6ft long and a lot food wouldn’t be found so I did this. I feed goldfish is bowls. Might help someone else I have plenty algae for bristlenose I don’t need over feed. 1.I have auto feeder at top giving small snails all day. 2. Then a funnel with a sponge filter shooting water down it get cyclone motion. 3. Down a shrimp pipe to bowl. 4. I also have lights go off minute and as soon pop on auto feeder drops food. I don’t think 1 pellet gets lost. I do feed a messy vegetable mix since goldfish and bowl helps contain mess. https://www.amazon.com/photos/shared/6O_7hpLvQrO2t-ium3lmEQ.yUcO9qdMnlpTfshH-He5Gj https://www.amazon.com/photos/shared/d08tQ6WzTqmNSUm4DRRaBg.x_gwhGwjQwdpjktoEKjQL0

Anyone breed these I brought off aqua bid and some have brown/blackish spots on them. With this go away with time I’d say 4-6 months old. These low quality is that why uniformed red all over. Or maybe my lighting half my tank have red leds turned up and other side blues turned up just experimenting with plants.

Thx I don’t need babies I guess goldfish will tank care of them! Just glad it’s not parasite I did trio quarantine for 8 weeks and went way heavier meds on all treatment then recommended. And even did one tablespoon per gallon salt treatment for 10 days ranchus are hardy.
