Yesterday i changed 2 gallons of my 10 gal tank for its routine cleaning and after i added the water the tank began to get cloudy. When i woke up i was very very cloudy. i did all the water tests and everything was fine except for ammonia. it went as high as it could go. I put ammonia lock in it and now the tank is still cloudy. why after a water change did it get cloudy and have an ammonia spike??

i found these great smooth stones on a trail in the woods, they were obviously placed there by some one for some reason. anyway i think its granite cuz theyr gray and white and they're made of these tiny sparky crystals. the other type i got from a huge stone fence, its a slab of grey rock that's common here in MA. i don't know what it is thoagh, but it also has sparkly speks. its the type people use to decorate theyre front lawn. anyway, are these types aquarium safe? thanks.

Ok, so 1 and a half weeks ago I started a 5 gallon aquarium with 8 fish (stupid wal-mart giving me bad advice) Only one fish died, but I took the 5 gallon back and got a 10 gallon 1.5 days later. I gave one fish to a friend and had 6 fish left in my new 10 gallon (kept the same filter cartridge and gravel and water, and added about 5 more gallons.) The fish did great for a week, no problems at all. I then added two new fish two serpae tetras which Wal-mart told me would be compatable with my current fish. well...these fish have murder my zebra danio and have removed the majority of the tails off of my neons. They have even injured each other. The only fish unscathed is a glowlight tetra. Wal-mart will take back the dead one, the 4 injured neons, and the two evil fish. However, I don't know if I should make them take theglowlight as well (he is a schooling fish and will be all alone) also, I don't know if I should add more fish or how long I should wait...it's been10 days total

The water has been in there for about a week. The bowl was clean and there was not soap in there.

Snails began appearing in my fish tank, apparently coming from the gravel. Now they seem to reproduce themselves. I am not feeding them anything but they continue to live and multiply. I wonder how they sustain their existence. And what's their life span on the average?

They r cichlids so no question of fungal diseases.
A proper answer with authentic references is much prefered.

I'm new to owning fish and I have no idea what I'm doing! We bought a 5 gallon tank a few days ago. We rinsed it out, wiped it down, filled it with already rinsed gravel and decorations and about 4.5 gallons of distilled water with a dose of stress coat. Then, yesterday, which was 24 hours after setting up tank, we added one freshwater plant and two glowlight tetras. I did exactly what the fish store guy told me to do and I planted first, and then put the plastic bag with the fish in the tank for 15 to 20 minutes before releasing. After researching online I did note that I made one error in that I dumped the bag into the tank after the 20 minutes instead of netting my fish out of the bag so I did get fish store water into my tank. But, with that said, the test strip still says it's at ideal condition this morning but one of the fish has died. Is this just part of the cycling process or a stressed fish? What's my next step? I only have one fish in this tank with a plant. Do I add more?

Two of the fish are blood parrots and the other is a placostomus (sp?). My boyfriend gave them to me so I want to keep them but I'll be driving for about two days. Is there any way I can get them to my final destination alive or do I have to give them away?
