... Aquaclear is less effective on the lower setting. I have a 125 gallon with an Aquaclear and an Emperor filter on the back. It has been up and running for...
I've got 10 goldfish in a 50 gallon tank and there's no problem of amonia poisoning coz I condition the water a lot plus I change the water regularly. 9 of...
I was wondering if it's a good idea to vacumm the bottom of my tank once week and then replace the water, or just change 25% of the water a week and not vacumm...
I'd vacuum every week--debris in the gravel can reach critical mass surprisingly fast, and it's constantly emitting toxins. You can change your vacuum...

Thanks for your help Sarah! I think that's what I'll do. I guess I have to be a little more careful when I'm vacuming. I have a hard time trying to get the...
Hi there It is perfectly normal for the males to chase the females however young they are. Some of my Fancy goldfish have chased each other when only about...

Is there a chance that they'll be breeding? I took away the live plants already to discourage them. And I also lowered the temperature and fed them less; I...
I don't think it's harmful for them to breed, unless they exhaust themselves--I'd put the plants back so the females have a place to rest. It just shows...

Goldfish are messy fish, so I have always kept my Aquaclear on the normal setting. Most goldfish people I have talked to seem to say that goldfish need a ...
Thanks for your input! I think I will keep it on the higher setting. I also seems to stir up some of the mess on the bottom when it's on a higher setting and...
I was wondering if anyone has ever of a pre-filter on the inflow tube of an Aquaclear filter. I'm guessing that it's something that covers the inflow tube?? ...
My fish (actually, it's my brother's) seems to be dying. I noticed a few days ago Biffy was swimming around the filter/water return, and he had what looked to...
Biffy is dead. :( I just did a search, and I think it might be a Columnaris infection. I just now find this out! Does anyone know how I should treat the tank...
It sounds like your fish could be suffering from columnaris, which is a bacterial disease. Tell me a little more about your tank, and how your brother takes...
I just sent you a post, before I read this one. I am sorry about Biffy. As I mentioned, in the previous post, perhaps you could tell me a little about your...
tmlclub, Personally, I think that there is a great benefit from it. During the winter season I only feed my fish every second or third day. And if I go away...
... Though I have no doubt of Tom LaBron's methods or observations, I must say its never made much sense to me FOR GOLDFISH. Since golds are omnivores, it...

Hi Patti, I once had an oranda many years ago, which had the very same problem (the white lump which eventually came out). Just recently I read a passage in a...
Hi, I found the passage in the book that I mentioned in my previous post. This is the only time I have read of this type of thing. The book is "The Complete...
Valerie, Thank you so much for looking that up. It's amazing how little information I've found about this. I'm sorry to hear about you lionhead. How are you...
