It reads under a 6.0 no matter what I do. I tried banking soda,ph up. I think the tank is contaminated.How do I fix this? I know it was a salt water tank at one time.

My Molly just had about 100 babies. She started 3 days ago and had a few a day until today when she had over 80 (yes we counted as we scooped them out int the other side of the divided tank). Should we leave her in her side of the divided tan (she has about 2 gallons of the 10 gallon tank)? Should we put her in a 5 gallon bucket for a while, or return her to the 55 gallon tank? And how long should we wait to move her or keep her there? By the way, we now have over 150 baby Mollies from 2 fish. Are these amounts normal? Thanks

Last week I bought a goldfish and a fish bowl it probably holds a half gallon of water. Yesterday we noticed the fish "blowing bubbles" and he was up at the top of the water line acting like he was trying to get some air. The fish was dead this morning. Now I keep reading that one fish needs 10 gallons of water! Why are fishbowls sold if a fish can't live in one? IF I decide to keep trying with the fish bowl, do I need some kind of filter, pump whatever? Any suggestions would be great.

It expired in December of '06. I was just wondering should I trash it or buy some more. I was going to use it for my betta fish. But I don't want to use it if its no good.

I bought an opaline gourami today and put into my 55 gal tank. My tanks been running for about 2 years. I have 2 plecos, 1 bullshark, 2 senegal bichirs, 1 needle fish, and a couple of crabs. They all have plenty of room, but when I went to check on the newbie 2 hours later I found one of the bichirs eating him behind the house?! I don't know if the gourami died and then was eaten because they have eaten dead fish before, or if they purposely killed him. The gourami was at least 3 inches by 1.5 inch, and the 2 senegals are about 6 inches. Should I not try to add any gouramis, or look for bigger ones? I thought he would be too big for anyone to eat?

So I have a 60 gallon tropical community tank. Here's the story. Hmmm, so I go to feed my fish, and I see this baby snail crawling in the tank. How in the world did it get there? I know what some of you may say: it must of gotten in there when I brought new fish home from the store. But no! I don't think that can be. For one, when I bring new fish, I never dump the water in the tank, I just use a net to put the fish in after floating the bag for 30 minutes. And besides that, I have never gotten any rocks or anything along with my fish from the store that could of mistakenly been a snail. And secondly, I haven't gotten new fish for a month. Wierd huh! So how can this be? I never had a snail in the tank, only a Plecco and ghost shrimp. I am so confused!

I originally had these platies in a much smaller tank and was advised that they would be fine in that tank. Looking at that tank now it was bad advise. I have 3 males and 3 females and want to get at least 3 more females to give the girls a bit of a break from the harrassing males. I also am going ot get a Bristlenose catfish to help with the cleaning and maintaince of the tank. This tank was a present and my partner and I have plans for a much bigger tank in the next 12months max. I have 2 smaller tanks one set up so when my pregnant females give birth I can remove them to another tank to give them a chance at life. Can anyone give helpful advise?

the water is heated to about 81 degrees..I changed about half the water.to see if that may help him but it didn't work. He eats fine but as soon as he does he goes right back to the bottom of the tank. there are no spots or anything on him. He still just as colorful as when i got him. The Water isn't cloudy or anything. so i'm stumped.i've had him for about 5-6 months..maybe its just his time?? any ideas would be greatly appreciated

It's not floating or anything, but it's gills aren't moving and neither is it's mouth. I tried tapping the glass, but nothing..I think the reason is because i haven't fed it since i got it yesterday. But i don't have any fish food and i can't go buy any. Do you think if i feed it now, it will start moving/swimming again? PLEASE help me and give me some tips to bring it back to an active state!!
