#365359 Water Change Problem

Posted by whatfor on 16 March 2018 - 05:32 AM in Community and Planted Tank Discussion

I get the cloudy tank now and then , I am doing 50% water changes twice a week. My readings do not change though.

I have question though , prime detoxifies chlorine and chloramine so the filter can remove them later. So how does the filter then remove them?




#365003 Using Zucchini For Aquarium Food

Posted by whatfor on 12 February 2018 - 07:01 AM in Fish Health, Nutrition, Diseases & Pests

I grow my own and the fish love it, they also like the skin, if your removing the seeds remember they love the soft flesh around the seeds more than the tougher flesh .

Mine also love microwaved pumpkin

Thanks, bought a 4 foot tank and it was in there wit a mix of other big fish, not a good combination.

Will likely give it away

Colour might improve when settles , tank only set up one day earlier.

These used to throw orange marbles as well, but was told they have been bred out, will see when they breed for me.

One female is trying to get in a cave with a male but nothing yet. Couple of pics26993684_1636783109747937_11385413085762

#364783 What L144's Really Are

I know this is an old topic but wanted to ask where red/orange fit into this? 

What price would they be?

And yes they do come from commons.

Not sure if they would be the same as what is sold overseas as super reds
