    Sanitizing

    So I had a tank set up for my daughter cycling in her room it was almost done cycling when she thought it was a good idea to put cheese and soap and IDK what else in the aquarium and it was there for a couple days before I noticed (smelled it)... I have everything taken out rinsed in hot water...

    Cichlid fry

    These two fry are from the same female and same batch of fry so they share the same parents. But why do they look so different? There are 3 ( there was 14 but due to a unknown hole in the breeder net there was only 3 left) And two look like the dark one but only one of them is that light one...

    Nutrafin cycle

    I am setting up a 10gallon tank for my 1 female cichlid so she can catch a break from the males because she not long ago swallowed a batch of young which would of been to term. So she's a little on the thin side at the moment. I have some substrate from her current tank put in there. the...

    How soon?

    I have my 10gallon sat up but how do I cycle it with nutrafin cycle? I haven't used it before. The substrate in the tank she's in didn't need to be cycled because of the substrate I bought (caribsea eco complete)
  18. parsons483

    How soon?

    Ohhh that's not good so maybe I should take her out? One OB is more persistent than the other.. And she's still quite thin from carrying the last batch. She's only about 3" what would be the minimum size tank I can place just her in ?
  19. parsons483

    How soon?

    My female peacock cichlid swallowed her young on march 7th I guess because we had to take somethings out of the tank to make more room and to make sure fish poo don’t build up in hard to reach places again and create the problem we just luckily fixed. But now the two male OB Peacocks are...

    s.o.s

    There were two places in the tank where I believe there were ammonia pockets, there was a small cluster of rocks in the back with a bunch of fish poo under it and a tube with a bunch of food in it. Both have been removed permanently from the tank. And the ammonia is now down to 0.25ppm. I ended...

    Holding?

    It sucks :\ but we have the ammonia dealt with now and its back to normal, but the males are already trying to breed her again hopefully she don't yet because she needs to eat a little while longer. I am starting to prepare tho just in case

    Holding?

    She ended up swallowing them while I had to do several water changes and had too take something out of the tank due to an ammonia spike

    s.o.s

    We haven’t been using tap water as the pipes in my house make it unfit to use (the water tastes like pennies) so we have been using spring water. (There is a spring nearby our house) I tested it first and there seems to be nothing wrong with it. My bio cylinders and due to be changed I was...

    s.o.s

    I am doing 50% water changes. And I picked up some nutrafin cycle. And some zeolite later media. I was told the zeolite stuff works better to remove ammonia?
  25. parsons483

    s.o.s

    They are still juvenile which is why they are there, I researched them before getting them we are soon getting a new tank. Could I have stirred up an ammonia pocket? And I am starting water changes now how much of a water change? I did treat with seachem amguard
