[Breeding Anglefish]

I Guess that make sense.

 

 Thanks for the advice

Yes I want to keep the fry. So Y does almost everyone say if you can get the parents to raise the fry it saves a lot of work? I thought if the parents raise them its better.

Hey Guys

 I put two Angelfish together in a tank that I thought were Male and female I watched them closely for a while but nothing happened so I gave up. So 3 weeks ago after the weekend I checked on them and the tank was full if fry. So now the spawned again so I left the eggs in the because they had good success the first time but day 2 they ate all the eggs. My question is should I give them a second chance or did I do something Wrong?

 

 THANKS

[CALCITE to change PH]

I believe that calcite is mostly calcium carbonate (may contain other minerals like iron and magnesium, and is often found in reef tanks. I believe that it could/would raise the pH and hardness in your tank. 

Yes, it should be similar to crushed coral (essentially same building blocks). 

Thats kind of what i thought.

 

 Thanks

[CALCITE to change PH]

Hey guys

 

 I was wondering if a guy could add a little calcite to freshwater aquarium to neutralize PH and bring up the KH in water? What would happen if i add some? Would it be the same as adding crushed Coral?

Thank you

[Nitrite]

There is no nitrite in my water. My nitrate is about 15 ppm. I put that sponge filter in a cycled tank for 15 days then I put it in new tank.

I am reading 0 Ammonia

Hey Guys

 Started up a 10 gallon aquarium put a couple fish in it to start the cycle. So as soon as I tested nitrite in the tank I removed the fish and put them back to old tank. I have been testing that aquarium for 10 to 12 days and it still shows 1.5 to 2.0 ppm. Go a medium size sponge filter in it for filtration. What do I do from here?

Thanks Guys

[Iron in Water]

Hi guys

 I have a well that puts out 45 Grams hardness and 4.5-5 ppm iron. My quiestios is how bad is iron for freshwater fish?

 Thanks

[Vegtables For Food]

So what size would you recommend cutting them?

[Vegtables For Food]

Hey Guys

Quick question here. I go lots of left over cucumbers,carrots and peas this year. Could a guy dehydrate them and make them onto a powder and feed it to Angelfish, Guppy's, and sword tails? What fish would eat thinks like this

 

 Thanks

[Algea Identification]

Hey Guys

 My tank broke out with brown algae spots. Want to know what algae it is and how to get rid of it.

 Thanks

[Angelfish Help]

Should I go back to regular feeding cycles?

[Angelfish Help]

Hey my tank is showing 0% Nitrite!! I'm feeding once a day. Should I still do a 25% water change every day for a couple more days? Is it going to effect my good bacteria growth?

[Angelfish Help]

Already Did No Nitrite

[Angelfish Help]

Thanks for the advice. But when I watch the fish they seem perfect they are active. By looking at the fish everything is perfect. 

[Angelfish Help]

Sorry about that. Yes I mean nitrite. So you would recommend 30% water change per day?

[Angelfish Help]

Hey Guys

 I have been doing a 50% water change everyday and yesterday I did a 80% water change and I did a water test this morning and its still at 2.0 can not seen to get lower then that. Am I doing something wrong or is that normal. BTW the fish seem perfectly fine.

[Angelfish Help]

Another Quick Question. Lets say the Pet Store PH is 7.0 and my is 8.2 should i lower my PH or should I acclimate them kind of like you would shrimp just a little quicker.

[Angelfish Help]

Thanks for the info guys

[Angelfish Help]

When acclimate fish do you guys add tank water to the bag after a hour of floating or do you just fish them in when the water temperature is the same?

[Angelfish Help]

Thanks guys for all the support.... But How does a guy know if there tank has cycled already or not? and Y doesn't it seem to bother the two sword tails or are they tougher fish?

[Angelfish Help]

I dont have any prime but I have AquaSafe. I did a 25% water Change and the nitrite is shill not 0. What do I do?

[Angelfish Help]

The Nitrite level is about 3.0
