i ve had a bacterial bloom for the past 3 days now and the water is getting cloudier. You cant even see 2 inches into the tank. It s a 10 gal. The ammonia levels are very high everyday. I went to the pet store and the lady told me to try carbon and zyolite in my bio-bag. She also said that even if i did a water change, it could make it worse. What should i do??

I saw so many peeps with these Japanese Fighters as pets on desks, in stores, on counters in restraunts etc. and keep them in tiny little containers and say they are fine. How do they know? Put them in a tiny jar and see if they are just fine! Anyway, I got one, beautiful dark blue with a spec of pale white on his head, I had him in a one gal. aquarium with bubbles, then I got three African water frogs to keep him company and a friend gave me a 5 gal. aq. so I put them in there and added a filter along with some plants, rocks , etc. Now I have noticed that Betta is swimming more actively and the frogs are bouncing up and down and thru the bubbles like they are having all kinds of fun when before they didn't move much at all. I'm so proud I wish I could put more male Bettas together, but how about a female and do some breeding, thats my question, anyone experience and have success with mating? I am really interested.

I have an ammonia reading of about .75 down from about 2.2 yesterday and a nitrite reading of about 3.0 up from 1.6 yesterday. How far along is the cycling of the tank and when can I put a couple of fish in there? (I had fish in for a week, none died, had to return them due to fin nipping, no fish for 3 days, but have been "feeding" the aquarium fish food to add waste and ammonia. )

Thinking of starting an aquarium. Have a 10 gallon tank. Want a fish to help clean the tank. What's the difference between a Pleco vs. an Algae Eater? Thanks!

3-4 mountain minnows or danios
3-4 harlequin rasboras
1-2 kuhli loaches
some java ferns and some cryptocoryne plants

I would like to have the two kuhli loaches but am unsure about the others. Any help would be great. Of course I would start off with the danios or the minnows for a few weeks before I even think about adding the other fishes.

We usually clean the tank, as we have done for over a year, every weekend. The only thing different is that our convicts had babies a week ago, and we skipped a cleaning so as not to disturb the new family. We have grow lights and the algae was pretty visible in the water after missing a week. When he got done, five of the fish were dead within an hour. They are swimming like they are half paralyzed. Some are better now, but some didn't make it. Are they in shock from stirring up the algae?

I just got the fish yesterday, the water was not cloudy last night. I put in water conditioner, washed the tank and the rocks and the plant all before adding the fish. Also the inside of the tank (above water level) has condensation on it. What should I do??
