Thanks guys. It’s not my tank. My friend only changes her water once a month and her plants look bad. Fish are living but I think they act ......slow. I suggested changing her water more often but she thinks the plants need the ammonia. I didn’t think that sounded right so I’m checking with you...

Does a consistent high ammonia in your tank cause your plants to die or just not do well?

I have a hang on back filter. 110 aquaclear. I also have a corner matter filter in the tank.

I’m thinking about changing my 75 gallon tank to bare bottom tank. I want to put small pots with plants in it and driftwood for decoration. I have had different types of substrate and I’m not a fan of any of them. I just don’t like it. Am I asking for trouble doing a bare bottom? Any way to go...

The plants are being dug up by my yo-yos. I glued them to rocks and planted them in pots to see if that helps-some success.

Got it

I’ll get a picture. I’m trying to post a picture but it’s not working

I have a problem with white little particles floating in my tank. Water parameters are good.

Water is very good. Ammonia 0-nitrite 0- nitrate 20-40, can’t ever tell the difference between the 20-40 range. I always use the declorinator. He dyed the next day. The other pea puffers look good. No problems with them.

Thanks

He is not as active as the other puffers but he swims. Not an albino that I know of. Bacterial infection?

Thus is my pea puffer. The back half of his body is white-ish. Is he rotting away?

I want to set up a quarantine tank. Does anyone keep one up at all times so you will have a cycled tank for when you need it?

I took off the diffuser and found pressure was fine. I must have a crappy diffuser. It’s a fluval ceramic disc. Can you recommend a good diffuser?

I am trying to put c02 in my tank. Everything is hooked up but there is no bubbles coming out of the diffuser. I have no idea what’s wrong. Any ideas?
