ok, I know you are right. So I went out and bought a second aquarium. My current one is ten gallons, my new one is 20 gals. It was time to get a bigger one anyway. Now I can keep my fish as they were outgrowing the 10 and I was soon to return them to the store. I used to have a 90 but I went the other way, smaller, back to my roots, hea.
Onto the sulfa... I went to two stores and neither had any. The only fungus treatment available was Jungle brand Fungus Clear. (nitrofurazone, furazolidone, potassium dichromate). My rainbow shark has white on and around his two little whiskers, and some patches that may or may not be fungus on the sides of his body. I noticed this three days ago.
I keep the tank pretty clean, every 10 days a partial water change and I vacuum the substrate. I feed them; crab and lobster bites for the loach, sinking carnivore pellets for the shark, the pictus, and pleco, algai wafers for the placo, and fresh romaine lettuce always available and eaten by both the shark and the pleco, while perched upon by the loach.
On the new tank I am using an under gravel filter with two powerheads as well as a Whisper 20 hang. (the 10 gal has no undergravel filter, just gets vacuumed and has two hangs.)
What is your opinion on undergravel filters? Pro or con?
I am new here. I was a casual member of AquaLink many years ago. Nice to meet you folks and thanks for your help.
