Hopefully? “That will be the day” - John Wayne. 😂🤣. I am kidding, that would be great. Maybe I will lay off one today, check paremeters and do a 25% change tomorrow? I think that sounds good. I love that quote 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony s Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 If you can get even 1 micro pellet per fish per feeding. That should be enough. You just went a whole week without. So 1 or 2 per would be plenty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitecloud09 Posted May 13 Author Share Posted May 13 Hmm, ok sounds good, I think I fed maybe 6 bug bites today maybe? So yeah thanks again for the ultra quick response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No stop with the constant water changes unless your nitrates are high or you have ammonia or nitrites. You have no ammonia right now so unless you have some nitrites or a high amount of nitrates (for example over 40-50) do not change the water. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitecloud09 Posted May 14 Author Share Posted May 14 I’ll just go back to weekly water changes and daily ammonia tests, I have a airstone air pump air tubing etc. coming today from Amazon, so that should help with oxygen becuase they were yawning and getting air from the top, and just becuase a air stone is so beneficial in tanks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
