How not to kill your fish... Take all the advice 'expertvillage' gave you and IGNORE IT. Geez, and these people actually sell the poor critters? Dayum!!
MONTHLY!? I do like %10-%15 water change a Week in my 120L. I know I dont Over clean the tank (just as bad as not cleaning enough) but Monthly is really too long.
MONTHLY!?!?! I do like %10-%15 water change a Week in my 120L. I know I dont Over clean the tank (just as bad as not cleaning enough) but Monthly is really too long.
oh....when I had my 10 gallon fresh water tank I would dump out all of da water nd clean everything(gravel,plants,decorations) nd I would do that like maby evey 2weeks. I had a filter nd everything so I don't have to clean it every weekend like I have to with my goldfish 1galon tank.
Really..monthly water changes? I guess that applies with a lightly loaded aquarium. There is no way you would do monthly water changes with big heavy loaded predatory fish.
I have a silver dollar and an albino rainbow shark. When the water gets low, I fill it up with tap water and I only change the filter about 4 times a year. They have been living for years.
@gut197 LOL yeah i do the same... i have a 75 gallon aquarium.... water gets about 2 inches low about 15 liters in about 15 days & then i add water & fill it up again..... & dont have any filter in my aquarium from last 3 months but the water is clean.... i have 2 parrot fishes, 2 tiger oscars & few african cichlids & they r happy..............
IT depends what fish u have how big is ur tank and ur local town water quality, i do 10% water change a week on my 150g coz i have a few oscars and their dirty little bastards and i have good quality tap water so all i do is keep the water in a bucket with air filter and chemicals u need, then after a week of bubbling and settling i take out the water and add the bucket water, and no problems for 5 years now
naaaah, i like my fish dead, and floating, usually i feed it once a week. and like i turn the filter and heater off to conserv energy (sarcasim) this is such a stupid and pointless video, imean if you didnt know this stuff already then you shouldnt even get a fish tank. lol.
how to not kill your fish means how to kill your fish ..first do not clean your tank..2 do not give oxygen...3 easily just take a net carry the fish up to the air ! no i was just kidding unless u do want to kill your fish..joking
You can keep him in there , you should only change about 25%weekly or if not weekly do 50% a month . But Its will not harm him at all to keep him in . If u want to take him out make sure you put him in something with the water from your tank and not tap water , this way he dont go through shock from temp or chlorine .
i baught new a filter because i baught another filter fron another place that turned out to be faulty.
the water i put in is fresh and the gravel is clean, it has no fish in the tank as of yet.
my concern is waiting 6 days untill the filter i ordered arives will i have have to change the water again because its been sat there for a possable 5 days with no filter?
First of all if you have a biologic balance you need to do a water change of 25% a week.
Since you don´t have any biologic balance you need to 2x 20% water change) 4 weeks long after that your tank will be perfect' becuase of the ammonia and nitrite that will build op becuase there is no bacteria yet in the filter or gravel.
Massages back because his is the second time i told you this lol
Do 25% water change a week , quit medicine and other stuff. Just 25% water change a week with cleaning the gravel and your fish will become happy and old
So I am not sure why they all died in few minutes. Was it the chemicals. I never used chemicals before, this was the first time. I usually just use salt and reverse osmosis water or spring- water. Today I had like 10 gallon of spring-water and the rest was tap water. I added bacteria, de-chlorination chemicals, and some other stuff ( it was a kit that came with 3 bottles and I also bought the bacteria thing separately). Anyways I think i rushed it, always let your water
Stop . ` I added bacteria, de-chlorination chemicals, and some other stuff `
DONT , if your tank has a biologic balance 25% water change will be enough stop using those chemicals , they are for noobs who want to pay extra cash lol
Man o man. Today I lost all my saltwater fishes 4 of them 2 chromes, a tomato clown fish, and a beautiful file fish.
So here I tell you what happened so hopefully no one else does the same and kills their fishes. I had old live sands in my tanks that I washed a few weeks ago and filled my whole tank with new spring-water + salt. The fishes were fine. Some more algea grow and I was sick of washing the old live sand so I got regular fine, white sand and I used tap water but added all the chemica
Id rather have green algae.....so in that case ill leave my light on more often like i always have....you cant stop algae growth by how long you have your light on..lol. And really all you need to do to keep for fish alive is put them in a bucket. throw in some water. and feed them.
dude trust me my tank is so clean i got like this under water filter that sucks in all the poo and lift over food and brings the water back up.allover agin.
the only part of the filter that you shouldnt change, is the biological media. the mechanical and chemical media need to be changed. the mechanical media eventually clogs, and the chemical media doesnt work forever.
sorry to bother u, but u seem like u know alot about fish care. do u recommend fish flakes or pellets? i'm leaning toward pellets because it looks a lot less messier than flakes =) thanks
You should try to buy a weight variation of foods,
Don't over feed for sure uf you use the fakes , just make sure you add as much they can eat in 10 seconds , then when the finished the food you can add a little , and it won't make a mess.
how about the classic fish bowl? do you need a filter tubular thing on the side for those?? i seriously need to know in four hours, so if this comment is more than four hours old, dont reply cause i already bought a fishie bowl.
This guy is dumb. Change 25% of the water once a month??????? The more water changes the better. Also the more water changes, the faster lots of types of fish will grow.;
If you did a monthly water change on a tank that small almost half the water would be evaporated. This guys retarted. You should do 30-50% water changes weekly for a fish to live. No fish can live by doing monthly water changes.
monthly water changes are detrimental to fish health, if you ever need to do a water change, then your tank isn't being "maintained properly".
green algae will grow in a tank with metal halides, that are only on for 6 hours. their is no general rule of thumb with algae. it has to do with light wave lengths, and color.
i wanna know how you and the rest of you "experts" at expert village, "keep fish alive".
