You can buy treatment for it and it should clear up easily unless you have let it go too far. In the future remember to clean the tank each week so you do not have a reoccurrence.

If your fish seem like they are gasping for air, this could be simply due to lack of oxygen in the water and not necessarily a disease. You could add an airstone to see if that helps the problem. Make sure you do not overcrowd the tank with too many fish.

If you see your fish scraping itself agains the bottom of the tank or the decorations, its possible that he has a parasite called Flukes.

1) Size matters! As previously mentioned, when/where in doubt, up-size through-put fitting diameter. Practically speaking they cannot be too large. Very often, they are too small to accommodate adequate flow or if one is blocked, all the flow without flooding.

2) Generally it doesnt matter what "strength" these fittings are... ones for boats work as well as

The use of aquarium supplements allows us to make sure the tropical fish, invertebrates, plants and macro algae in our aquariums are receiving proper nutrition.

Freshwater fish obtain most of their nutrients from the food they eat. Freshwater fish do not drink water, whereas saltwater fish do. Using vitamin and mineral supplements on food fed to temperate and tropical freshwater fish in captivity will ensure they are getting the right nutrition. Using vitamins directly in the water of marine aquaria will

There is usually a control valve for regulating water flow. A check valve is usually placed on the filter intake to prevent the sand from packing-down when the filter is turned off.

Because water flows upward through the filter, the sand in the filter becomes suspended or "fluidized" in the water column, forming a fluidized bed of sand. If the flow of water is controlled properly, the sand does not flow out of the filter, but remains suspended. This happens because the flow of water is just fast enough to keep the sand in suspension. The weight of the sand prevents it from escaping the filter. Because the sand is suspended in wat

While large water changes and chemical filtrant exchanges can be cumbersome, impractical or expensive on big systems, protein skimmers can temper the degradation of water quality inexpensively and effectively. Protein skimmers are also a crucial means of supporting oxygen saturation in a system with a heavy bio-load.

A brief but important mention of aquarium tank and stand fabrication is in order. A few hundred gallons of water translates to a few thousand pounds o

SE vs DE
I did a search but my searching skills suck I guess. I'm trying to figure out if DE is worth the cost over SE for a dual setup over a 75 or a 90 gallon tank, haven't decided yet, but I obviously want the most light .
