I have a koi pond with 22 fish in it. The pond is 3 feet off the ground. This morning when I wen to feed them they were all gone. The pond is in front of a bench that is covered with flower pots. There doesn't seem to be a disturbance. I understand if a raccoon, possum, or egret ate maybe 4 or 5 in the middle of the night but what animal could have eaten all 22 fish? I checked the morning before and there were still a lot of fish in the pond.

I just bought the marineland 350 canister filter yesterday with some gift cards I got for xmas to my LFS.

The darn thing was $110 and I can't even take the top off! I tried to put the polishing filter on last night and I could NOT get the lid off withough getting water ALL OVER the place!

I do not have the 'deluxe' one. Just the regular one.

How are you supposed to change your filter media every could weeks if it just spews water everwhere when you take the lid off? I looked in the instructions and it doesn't give any advice on this subject. This is my first canister filter, HELP!

Well, I'm babysitting a friend's betta fish, and it was going well.
But my cats looooove Bob the betta fish.
I was just out of the room and someone left the door open for the cats to fing Bob, and they knocked over his tank!
When I found him, I thiught he was dead.
But I put some water back in the tank just in case, and he's alive.
But first he was swimming up, then down over and over again.
Now he's just floating around on the top of the water.
He's in a normal position, except every now and again his backside starts to fall.
Is he okay?
Is there anything I can do?

I had a crazy idea. If I put a male and female betta in a ten gallon tank wiht no gravel together with a divider and condition them and do everything by the book and then let them mate, but after one sqeeze from the male I seperate them. Then I put the female in a hopital tank and care for her. After the male has done his job I will put him on the other side of the divider and widen the fry side. When the female has become healed I will put her in a big bowl. Then when the males become aggressive I will put them in their own tanks of one gallon(in a warm spot). Now when the fry become bigger, I will sell them to individuals and my lfs. Is this a crazy idea, and will it work? BTW if i do seperate them after the first squeeze, how many fry am I looking at?
